The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List: modid: Mysql::Connector DSLIP: bdpOg description: Mysql connection factory; easy DBI userid: NICZERO (Nic Sandfield) chapterid: 7 (Database_Interfaces) communities:
similar: DBI DBD::Mysql rationale: This is a convenience wrapper around DBI, specialised for MySQL, providing DB connectors. A connector inherits and retains its configuration, providing easy access to pre-configured DBI connections. It makes it easy to declare default parameters. It makes it easy to use credential files, avoiding putting credentials inside sourcecode, thereby greatly improving security. The module is of greatest benefit to code that makes more than one database connection, but will also be popular with those wanting an easy way of getting their database parameters correct (eg utf8, auto-commit, raise-exception). enteredby: NICZERO (Nic Sandfield) enteredon: Sat Nov 6 19:48:02 2010 GMT The resulting entry would be: Mysql:: ::Connector bdpOg Mysql connection factory; easy DBI NICZERO Thanks for registering, -- The PAUSE PS: The following links are only valid for module list maintainers: Registration form with editing capabilities: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=ac200000_84fca6a1922f52ce&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_preview=1 Immediate (one click) registration: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=ac200000_84fca6a1922f52ce&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_insertit=1 Peek at the current permissions: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?pause99_peek_perms_by=me&pause99_peek_perms_query=Mysql%3A%3AConnector
