The big difference between using the Recordset object and just using a standard query is the Recordset, with its defined internal structure allows for automated transformations to the data. The object builds the queries on the fly, and remembers where it got all the data in question, so it can edit it and put it back. Much of this functionality is seen in the CGI::Lazy::Widget::Dataset object, for which the Recordset object was originally written. =head1 METHODS =head2 basewhere () Returns the basewhere string for the recordset. =head2 createSelect () Creates the Select statement out of the structure of the Recordset. =head2 data () Returns data reference from Recordset. Will always be present, but will be empty until select() is called. =head2 delete ( data ) Deletes records with primary keys in data. =head3 data Hashref who's keys are the primary keys of the records to be deleted. =head2 displayOnly ( field ) Returns true if field has displayOnly key set to a true value. =head3 field name of field to test =head2 db () Returns reference to CGI::Lazy::DB object =head2 fieldlist () Returns array ref of field list with which recordset was built. =head2 handle ( field ) Returns reference used as handle to value of field. =head3 field Name of field who's handle to retrieve =head2 hidden ( field ) Returns true if field in question has been set to hidden =head3 field name of field to test =head2 inputMask ( field ) Returns inputMask for field of given name, if one has been set. =head3 field Name of field to test. =head2 insert ( data, vars ) Inserts data modified by vars into table accessed by Recordset. =head3 data Hashref of data to be inserted. Each key corresponds to a row of data =head3 vars modifiers for data to be inserted =head2 insertadditonal Returns reference of additional information to be inserted with each new record =head2 insertdefaults Returns reference of default values to be inserted with each new record =head2 joins Returns either list or arrayref of joins for Recordset =head2 label ( field ) Returns label set for field, or name of field if no label has been specified =head3 field field name to test. =head2 new ( vars ) Constructor =head3 vars Hashref with construction properties. Options: { table => $table, mysqlAuto => 1, basewhere => $where, orderby => $order by, primarykey => $keyfield, fieldlist => [ { name => 'field1', label => 'some field', validator => { rules => ['/\d+/'}, outputMask => "%1.f", inputMask => "%1.f", }, { name => 'field2', label => 'some other field', outputMask => "%1.f", readOnly => 1, }, { name => 'post_date', label => 'Post Date', readfunc => "to_char(post_date, 'YYYY-MM-DD')", writefunc => "to_date(?, 'YYYY-MM-DD')", }, { name => 'username', label => 'Username', }, { name => 'passwd', label => 'Password', passwd => { userField => 'username', }, }, ], insertdefaults => { field1 => { value => 'some value', }, field2 => { sql => ['select foo from bar where ?', $bind1], }, field3 => { sql => ['select foo.nextvar from dual'], handle => $ref, } updatedefaults => { field1 => { value => 'some value', }, field2 => { sql => ['select foo from bar where ?', $bind1], }, field3 => { sql => ['select foo.nextvar from dual'], handle => $ref, } } } =head3 table string. name of table =head3 mysqlAuto set flag if primary key for this recordset is created by mysql auto_increment column. If set, composite widgets will automatically make this value available to member widgets on insert. =head3 basewhere Sql string. This forms the base where clause for all selects. This string should not contain any variables from the outside world, as it is NOT bound, and could be used in sql injection attacks were cgi parameters used here. If you want to use cgi params, see the 'where' method which is intended to be dynamic, and can take binds. =head3 orderby string. orderby clause =head3 primarykey field name of primary key for table =head3 fieldlist array ref. list of fields with their attributes =head4 Fieldlist Options name => name of field hidden => if true, field is never displayed, but is selected readOnly => if true, field is displayed, but never written label => displayed label of field. if blank label defaults to fieldname noLabel => if true, no label is displayed for field. oututMask => sprintf string that transforms data on the way out of db to screen inputMask => sprintf string that transforms data on the way into db validator => rules for field validation rules => arrayref of tests to check. if all return true, field is valid. Currently only supports regexes. message => canned error message to display onerror. (not currently used by anything, but you can grab this in your own code and display it) readfunc => database function to perform on read writefunc => db function to perform on write insertdefaults => default values inserted on insert value => value to insert sql => array ref. first value is sql to generate value to insert, rest is binds handle => reference whose referrent will contain whatever value is set into db. Useful for later use in cgi. updatedefaults => default values updated on update value => value to insert sql => array ref. first value is sql to generate value to insert, rest is binds handle => reference whose referrent will contain whatever value is set into db. Useful for later use in cgi. webcontrol => type of input displayed to browser. Defaults to text input field. type => select, checkbox, text. Text is the default. value => for a checkbox, only a single value can be specified values => arrayref, or hashref. If arrayref, both displayed value and value will be the same. If hashref, key will be label, value will be value. sql => [$query, @binds] You can specify a query that will build the values, but it expected to return 2 values per row, the first being the label, the second being the value. notNull => 1 Set this for selects if you don't want the first item of the select to be blank passwd => This field is password field used with the authn plugin userField => name of field in recordset that will contain the username =head3 updatedefaults means for setting default values on any update =head3 insertdefaults means for setting default values on any insert =head2 noLabel ( field ) Returns true if field in question has been set with the noLabel option =head3 field Name of field to test. =head2 orderby ( sql ) returns or sets the order by clause =head3 sql sql string =head2 outMask ( field ) Returns outputMask set for field. =head3 field Name of field to test. =head2 multipleFiled ( field ) Returns true if field in question has multipleField option set (i.e. it's supposed to turn up on the mulitple record screen) =head3 field Name of field to test. =head2 multipleFieldList Returns arrayref or array of fields flagged to show up on multiple records page =head2 multipleFieldLabels Returns arrayref or array of labels for fields chosen to appear on multiple record pages. =head2 mysqlAuto () Returns true if recordset was created with mysqlAuto => 1 . =head2 passwd ( field ) Returns passwd hashref from fieldlist config. =head3 fieldname name of the field in question =head2 primarykey ( fieldname ) returns or sets the primary key for the object =head3 fieldname The name of the field in the database =head2 primarykeyhandle () Returns scalar ref to primary key of record being processed. Used by Composite widget to get primary key of parent. Only really useful for datasets in single mode. Use with multiple row datasets at your own risk. =head2 q () returns reference to CGI::Lazy object. =head2 readfunc ( field ) Returns readfunction set for field in question, if any. =head3 field field to be tested. =head2 readOnly ( field ) Returns true if field in question has been set to readOnly. =head3 field field to be tested =head2 select () Runs select query based on $self->createSelect, fills $self->{_data}, and returns same. If where clause is set up with bind placeholders, and select is called with bind variables as arguments, it will bind them and be safe from injection. if called with straight up variables from the net, it will be vulnerable. As you will. =head2 table( tablename ) gets or sets the table queried =head3 table string. =head2 update ( data, vars ) Updates fields in data, modified by vars =head3 data Hashref of data. Each key is the primary key off a record, and the value is a hash whose keys are fieldnames and values are field contents. =head3 vars modifiers to data =head2 updateadditional () Returns updateadditional information for recordset. =head2 updatedefaults () Returns updatedefaults information for recordset =head2 validator ( field ) Returns validator hashref for field. =head3 field Name of field to be tested. =head2 verify ( value ) Untaints and returns true only if the given string is a field included in the database Due to the dynamic nature of the Widget objects, it's not possible to bind all variables coming in from the web. This is not ideal.
