NAME DBIx::Class::CustomPrefetch - Custom prefetches for DBIx::Class DESCRIPTION DBIx::Class onle allows joins for prefetches. But sometimes you can't use JOIN for prefetch. E.g. for prefetching many related objects to resultset with paging. Also you can use this module to create cross-database prefetches. This module provides other logic for prefetching data to resultsets. VERSION Version 0.09 SYNOPSIS package MyApp::Schema::Foo; __PACKAGE__->load_components( qw(Core CustomPrefetch) ); __PACKAGE__->add_column( qw(id artist_id) ); __PACKAGE__->resultset_class( 'DBIx::Class::ResultSet::CustomPrefetch' ); __PACKAGE__->custom_relation( artist => sub { MyOtherResultSetClass->new } => { 'foreign.id' => 'self.artist_id' }); And your code: my $resultset = $schema->resultset('Foo')->search( undef, { rows => 10 } ); foreach ($resultset->all) { say $_->artist->name; } will make only two SQL requests: SELECT id, artist_id FROM foo LIMIT 10; SELECT * FROM artists WHERE id IN (1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89); METHODS custom_relation Makes IN relation. In can be has_one, might_have or many_to_many Args: $relation_name, $resultset_callback, $condition AUTHOR Andrey Kostenko, "" BUGS Please report any bugs or feature requests to "bug-dbix-class-customprefetch at rt.cpan.org", or through the web interface at .
