The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: DBIx::Lite
DSLIP: RdpOp
description: Chained and minimal ORM
userid: AAR (Alessandro Ranellucci)
chapterid: 7 (Database_Interfaces)
communities:
IRC and GitHub repository (pull requests)
similar:
DBIx::Class
rationale:
The well-known DBIx::Class provides a powerful way to abstract
database queries, but it requires full table definitions and a bunch
of .pm files in order to define a schema. My DBIx::Lite provides a
similar abstract, OO, chained interface but it follows a different
approach: most of its functionality does not require any schema
definition at all, nor a particular module layout. It uses AUTOLOAD
to build accessors. It supports SQL::Abstract syntax, table
relationships, paging and custom packages. It's supposed to be a
simpler replacement for DBIx::Class. Also, it allows to handle
particular situations where DBIx::Class can't be used, such as
databases whose schema cannot be hard-coded and must be loaded or
changed at runtime.
I was expecting criticism for publishing yet another ORM, but I got
none and I got very positive feedback from users, along with code
contributions (see GitHub). People are also building other modules
on top of DBIx::Lite.
