## + feature when using Tangram: |
27 |
# Revision 1.1 2002/10/10 03:43:12 cvsjoko |
## + what? each object created should delivered with a globally(!?) unique identifier (GUID) besides the native tangram object id (OID) |
28 |
# + new |
## + patched Tangram::Storage (jonen) |
29 |
# |
## + enhanced Data::Storage::Schema::Tangram (joko) |
30 |
################################# |
## + enhanced Data::Storage::Handler::Tangram 'sub getObjectByGuid' (jonen) |
31 |
|
## + how? |
32 |
# aim_V1: should encapsulate Tangram, DBI, DBD::CSV and LWP:: to access them in an unordinary way ;) |
## + each concrete (non-abstract) class gets injected with an additional field/property called 'guid' - this is done (dynamically) on schema level |
33 |
# aim_V2: introduce a generic layered structure, refactor *SUBLAYER*-stuff, make (e.g.) this possible: |
## + this property ('guid') gets filled on object creation/insertion from 'sub Tangram::Storage::_insert' using Data::UUID from CPAN |
34 |
# - Perl Data::Storage[DBD::CSV] -> Perl LWP:: -> Internet HTTP/FTP/* -> Host Daemon -> csv-file |
## + (as for now) this property can get accessed by calling 'getObjectByGuid' on the already known storage-handle used throughout the application |

|
|
|
|
Data::Storage - Interface for accessing various Storage implementations for Perl in an independent way |
|
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS |
|
|
|
|
|
... the basic way: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
... via inheritance: |
|
|
|
|
|
use Data::Storage; |
|
|
my $proxyObj = new HttpProxy; |
|
|
$proxyObj->{url} = $url; |
|
|
$proxyObj->{payload} = $content; |
|
|
$self->{storage}->insert($proxyObj); |
|
|
|
|
|
use Data::Storage; |
|
|
my $proxyObj = HttpProxy->new( |
|
|
url => $url, |
|
|
payload => $content, |
|
|
); |
|
|
$self->{storage}->insert($proxyObj); |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=head2 NOTE |
|
|
|
|
|
This module heavily relies on DBI and Tangram, but adds a lot of additional bugs and quirks. |
|
|
Please look at their documentation and this code for additional information. |

=head1 DESCRIPTION |
|
|
|
|
|
Data::Storage is module for a accessing various "data structures" stored inside |
|
|
various "data containers". It sits on top of DBI and/or Tangram. |

=head1 TODO |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=head2 Handle the following errors/cases: |
|
|
|
|
|
=head3 "DBI-Error [Tangram]: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Unknown column 't1.requestdump' in 'field list'" |
|
|
|
|
|
... occours when operating on object-attributes not introduced yet: |
|
|
this should be detected and appended/replaced through: |
|
|
"Schema-Error detected, maybe (just) an inconsistency. |
|
|
Please check if your declaration in schema-module "a" matches structure in database "b" or try to run" |
|
|
db_setup.pl --dbkey=import --action=deploy |
|
|
|
|
|
=head3 Compare schema (structure diff) with database ... |
|
|
|
|
|
... when issuing "db_setup.pl --dbkey=import --action=deploy" |
|
|
on a database with an already deployed schema, use an additional "--update" then |
|
|
to lift the schema inside the database to the current declared schema. |
|
|
You will have to approve removals and changes on field-level while |
|
|
new objects and new fields are introduced silently without any interaction needed. |
|
|
In future versions there may be additional options to control silent processing of |
|
|
removals and changes. |
|
|
See this CRUD-table applying to the actions occouring on Classes and Class variables when deploying schemas, |
|
|
don't mix this up with CRUD-actions on Objects, these are already handled by (e.g.) Tangram itself. |
|
|
Classes: |
|
|
C create -> yes, handled automatically |
|
|
R retrieve -> no, not subject of this aspect since it is about deployment only |
|
|
U update -> yes, automatically for Class meta-attributes, yes/no for Class variables (look at the rules down here) |
|
|
D delete -> yes, just by user-interaction |
|
|
Class variables: |
|
|
C create -> yes, handled automatically |
|
|
R retrieve -> no, not subject of this aspect since it is about deployment only |
|
|
U update -> yes, just by user-interaction; maybe automatically if it can be determined that data wouldn't be lost |
|
|
D delete -> yes, just by user-interaction |
|
|
|
|
|
It's all about not to be able to loose data simply while this is in pre-alpha stage. |
|
|
And loosing data by being able to modify and redeploy schemas easily is definitely quite easy. |
|
|
|
|
|
As we can see, creations of Classes and new Class variables is handled |
|
|
automatically and this is believed to be the most common case under normal circumstances. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=head2 Introduce some features: |
|
|
|
|
|
- Get this stuff together with UML (Unified Modeling Language) and/or standards from ODMG. |
|
|
- Make it possible to load/save schemas in XMI (XML Metadata Interchange), |
|
|
which seems to be most commonly used today, perhaps handle objects with OIFML. |
|
|
Integrate/bundle this with a web-/html-based UML modeling tool or |
|
|
some other interesting stuff like the "Co-operative UML Editor" from Uni Darmstadt. (web-/java-based) |
|
|
- Enable Round Trip Engineering. Keep code and diagrams in sync. Don't annoy/bother the programmers. |
|
|
- Add some more handlers: |
|
|
- look at DBD::CSV, Text::CSV, XML::CSV, XML::Excel |
|
|
- Add some more locations/locators: |
|
|
- PerlDAV: http://www.webdav.org/perldav/ |
|
|
- Move to t3, use InCASE |
