NAME

       SQL::Translator::Filter::Names - Tweak the names of schema objects.

SYNOPSIS

         #! /usr/bin/perl -w
         use SQL::Translator;

         # Lowercase all table names and upper case the first letter of all field
         # names. (MySql style!)
         #
         my $sqlt = SQL::Translator->new(
             filename => \@ARGV,
             from     => 'MySQL',
             to       => 'MySQL',
             filters => [
               Names => {
                   'tables' => 'lc',
                   'fields' => 'ucfirst',
               },
             ],
         ) || die "SQLFairy error : ".SQL::Translator->error;
         print($sqlt->translate) || die "SQLFairy error : ".$sqlt->error;

DESCRIPTION

       Tweak the names of schema objects by providing functions to filter the names from the
       given into the desired forms.

SEE ALSO

       Name Groups
           Define a bunch of useful groups to run the name filters over. e.g. all, fkeys, pkeys
           etc.

       More Functions
           e.g. camelcase, titlecase, single word etc.  Also a way to pass in a regexp.

           May also want a way to pass in arguments for the func e.g. prefix.

       Multiple Filters on the same name (filter order)?
           Do we actually need this, you could just run lots of filters. Would make adding func
           args to the interface easier.

               filters => [
                   [ 'Names', { all => 'lc' } ],
                   [ 'Names', {
                       tables => 'lc',
                       fields => 'ucfirst',
                   } ],
               ],

           Mind you if you could give the filter a list this wouldn't be a problem!

               filters => [
                   [ 'Names',
                       all    => 'lc'
                       fields => 'ucfirst',
                   ],
               ],

           Which is nice. Might have to change the calling conventions for filters.  Would also
           provide an order to run the filters in rather than having to hard code it into the
           filter it's self.
