Data::Stream::Bulk::DBI - N-at-a-time iteration of DBI statement results. VERSION
version 0.11 SYNOPSIS
use Data::Stream::Bulk::DBI; my $sth = $dbh->prepare("SELECT hate FROM sql"); # very big resultset $sth->execute; return Data::Stream::Bulk::DBI->new( sth => $sth, max_rows => $n, # how many at a time slice => [ ... ], # if you want to pass the first param to fetchall_arrayref ); DESCRIPTION

get_more See Data::Stream::Bulk::DoneFlag. Calls "fetchall_arrayref" to get the next chunk of rows. all Calls "fetchall_arrayref" to get the raminder of the data (without specifying "max_rows"). AUTHOR
