INSTALL perl Makefile.PL; make; make test; make install; Do 'make install' as root if installing into root-protected directories TEST ISSUES prompt for database parameters doesn't appear on some machines Tests skipped by Test::Harness but not skipped when run individually. Description These are Class::DBI libraries that plug into Fry::Shell. Features - Contains functions that search with &Class::DBI::search* and Class::DBI::AbstractSearch:search_where, delete, search and replace in records with a perl regexp, update records via a text editor and insert. Also has a few functions used to manipulate DBI::Profile's logging. - Can define print modes for queries with &_alias_print - Most functions can have their actions confined to certain columns via the 'c' option. ToDo -defining relations between tables but first need to get design to work with Class::DBI::Loader -provide direct SQL queries -support shell-like parsing of quotes to allow spaces in queries -specify sorting and limit of queries -embed sql or database functions in queries -create an easily-parsable syntax for piecing chunks into 'or' and 'and' parts to be passed to Class::DBI::AbstractSearch License Perl's Have fun!
