Re: Frustration [Was: mysql binding/wrapper?]

2012-05-10 Thread #coder


As for mysqln, I merged jrogers patches and changed uint to 
size_t so it compiles on x64.
You can look at it here: 
https://github.com/simendsjo/mysqln/tree/compile-on-recent-dmd
It hasn't been tested beyond connecting to the database and 
fetching metadata yet.
And my repository will go away very soon as I'll rather help 
with the original library (if Steve Teale comes back) or the 
one in vibe.


Thanks for sharing the modified code. I was able to compile it 
without any issue and I am able to fetch the meta data. I will be 
testing more to run insert and select queries. But I found a bug 
in the code. If you don't specify the password for your test 
mySQL server then the mysql.d fails. It is always expecting a 
password and on empty password it throws the exception.


file: mysql.d
function: open [line 1415]

I think when it calls _socket.send then it fails.

So far other that this issue, it is working good and if it gets 
stable then certainly I will move forward with a project in D 
Language. I will be using the mongoDB and mySQL so this driver 
will be important for me, in fact for other's too as they 
mentioned in this thread.


One question though, is it thread safe?

Thanks for everyone's effort to make this driver work!

I have the same feeling. I used D quite a lot around 1.007-1.0028, and  
every library broke with each release. And new bugs were introduced each  
release. It was a big PITA.
It seems the situation has gotten a lot better, so I hope I'll be able to  
use D for a small project now.

thought of trying to fix the error. Apparently I need to

OK, never mind, I should have read before jumping in. I asked 
where this code was a few weeks ago, and got no answer, so I'm 
quite glad that this comes up. I haven't tested the driver, but 
at least, it compiles fine.

It depends on the database.d module in there too. (database.d
provides the base interface and some common functions with
other db providers.)

That's it though, D wise. It also uses the mysql C library
so you'll need libmysql on your system for it to link too.

Would you mind if the module was added to vibe, and thus 
relicensed to MIT? No idea if the vibe folks would actually 
want that though :)


My stuff is all free to take as far as I'm concerned, but
since this uses libmysql it might technically be GPL.

I don't really know. But if you're ok with that, you can have 
it.


There is one small compilation error on the postgres driver line 
44. I'm not sure it's the right thing to do but changing the 
offending type to size_t seems to do the trick.

 If that's the case, using this lib will make your entire project GPL.

 I think the britseyeview version was an attempt by Steve Teale to write
 a non-GPL lib that used the protocol spec from MySQL for inclusion in
 Phobos.  Not sure where it stands.

 -Steve
 
 I wrote a reply yesterday that obviously didn't make it.
 Sönke Ludwig integrated Steve Teales native mysql library:
 https://github.com/rejectedsoftware/mysql-native Haven't had the time to
 test it yet, but at least it compiles and is able to get metadata from
 mysql.

Actually, it looks like the vibe folks are using my fork of Steve Teales 
mysqln. I had hoped to contact Steve first, so that these changes existed 
in one place. 

https://github.com/JollieRoger

All of the changes exist in individual branches off the master branch. Git 
will merge these into one file fuzzily.
What they are is as follows:

seperatemain - split main() into its own file (app.d in vibe).
seperatemainwithport - main() using branch addporttoconnection.
addporttoconnection - add no standard port selection to Connection.
fixfordmd2058 - cosmetic changes to work with dmd-2.058.
fixresultset - allow the return of an empty resultset. When
iterating schema, test had no tables and would crash.
fixconnection - would only connect to localhost in Steve's code.

I have other changes that I haven't pushed up yet relating to NUMERIC and 
null variants with a more detailed main.d.

Vibe.d looks interesting, I hope these fixes help.

I did a small patch for it to compile for x64.
Vibe.d has patches to use it's internal stream library, so that would  
probably be hard to patch back to Steve.
I was thinking of deleting my project and forking from vibe.d to do pull  
requests against that as I thought that would be the most used repository

Not sure how we should go about this, but I agree fragmentation is bad.

Hope Steve can chip in as it's his code and he has plans for a generic  
interface.

That's mine. I use it all the time; nothing super fancy, but
it gets the job done for me.

I didn't really document it... but the basic usage is simple:

auto mysql = new MySql(hostname, username, password,  
database_name);


int userId = getMyUserId();

foreach(line; mysql.query(SELECT id, name FROM something WHERE user_id  
= ?, userId)) {

 line[id]   == line[0]
 line[name] == line[1]
}


The columns are returned as strings. The query returns a simple
range, so you can also check .empty, get .front, etc.


Hmm.. Seems my previous message was lost in the void.

As it resides in this big misc repository, does it have many dependecies?
