This module acts as a mix-in, adding the relationship() method to Class::DBI::Loader. Since Class::DBI::Loader knows how to map between table names and class names, there ought to be no need to replicate the names. . In addition, it is common (but not universal) to want reverse relationships defined for has-many relationships, and for has-a relationships to be defined for the linkages surrounding a many-to-many table. . The aim of this module is to simplify the declaration of common database relationships by providing both of these features. . The relationship takes a string. It recognises table names (singular or plural, for convenience) and extracts them from the "sentence". |
