- Multiple Table Inheritance?
DBIx::Class::ResultSource::MultipleTableInheritance is finally out. The idea behind multiple table inheritance is to combine multiple tables behind a view that is writable and updateable like a normal table, which can allow you to do all sorts of nifty things. The combination of the tables is accomplished via a set of triggers and rules for insertion and [...]
- Strange Interviewing Experiences
I moved from New York where I had a good job with bad bosses to Los Angeles, California, one of the epicenters of the economic crisis. I’ve been on my new job for 3 weeks now, and I am settling in enough to reflect a bit on the job hunt. It sure was strange! Perl [...]
- Some Module Ideas
I hope I’m not too late in my third week of posting for the iron man contest. My last post was on May 31, and so I should have posted something by June 7, but I was traveling cross-country to my original hometown of Los Angeles! Talk about a car city. I think that’s a [...]
- A Meager Attempt at CatchUp
Well, I am definitely busted back down to paper man now. But I have a real good reason. I was JFDI. I was learning to test (I’d say I am level 1 for the moment). Boy, is testing a strange enterprise for the beginning tester. Like millions before me, I did “testing” the other way [...]
- Automatic CRUD in your Controllers
The first version of the module to generate CRUDdy controllers automatically is up on my github. It’s for REST first. RPC comes next. It doesn’t use the normal syntax of calls to Catalyst::Helper (e.g., myapp_create.pl)–or, rather, it uses the normal syntax differently. When you type $ catalyst.pl myapp $ cd myapp $ script/myapp_create.pl controller API::REST [...]
- I’m In Ur Loader
So, I’ve been working on this Loader thing, trying to get it to write Moose attributes for all sorts of class data and stuff. One major problem was that Loader runs through its cycle twice, and it dumps the schema twice. The first time there’s no relationship information, because it hasn’t gotten it. The second [...]
- How I Learned to Write a Real Database Schema
This is about how I learned to make a real database schema. It was my first exposure to roles and the generally more robust practice of “multiple inheritance” object-oriented database design. This is one wheel I would never have reinvented on my own, either. So, I had no clue what I was doing, really. My [...]
