NAME

       DBIx::Class::KiokuDB - Refer to KiokuDB objects from DBIx::Class tables.

SYNOPSIS

       See DBIx::Class::Schema::KiokuDB.

           package MyApp::DB::Result::Album;
           use base qw(DBIx::Class);

           __PACKAGE__>load_components(qw(Core KiokuDB));

           __PACKAGE__->table('album');

           __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
               id => { data_type => "integer" },
               title => { data_type => "varchar" },

               # the foreign key for the KiokuDB object:
               metadata => { data_type => "varchar" },
           );

           __PACKAGE__->set_primary_key('id');

           # enable a KiokuDB rel on the column:
           __PACKAGE__->kiokudb_column('metadata');

DESCRIPTION

       This DBIx::Class component provides the code necessary for DBIx::Class::Row objects to
       refer to KiokuDB objects stored in KiokuDB::Backend::DBI.

CLASS METHODS

       kiokudb_column $rel
           Declares a relationship to any KiokuDB object.

           In future versions adding relationships to different sub-collections will be possible
           as well.

METHODS

       store
           A convenience method that calls "store" in KiokuDB on all referenced KiokuDB objects,
           and then invokes "insert_or_update" on $self.

       get_kiokudb_column $col
       set_kiokudb_column $col, $obj
       store_kiokudb_column $col, $obj
           See DBIx::Class::Row.

OVERRIDDEN METHODS

       new Recognizes objects passed in as column values, much like standard relationships do.

       insert
           Also calls "insert" in KiokuDB on all referenced objects that are not in the KiokuDB
           storage.

       update
           Adds a check to ensure that all referenced KiokuDB objects are in storage.
