NAME

       DBIx::Class::Helper::Row::StorageValues - Keep track of stored vs in-memory row values

VERSION

       version 2.013002

SYNOPSIS

	package MyApp::Schema::Result::BlogPost;

	use parent 'DBIx::Class::Core';

	__PACKAGE__->load_components(qw(Helper::Row::StorageValues));

	__PACKAGE__->table('BlogPost');
	__PACKAGE__->add_columns(
	   id => {
	      data_type 	=> 'integer',
	      is_auto_increment => 1,
	   },
	   title => {
	      data_type 	 => 'varchar',
	      length		 => 32,
	      keep_storage_value => 1,
	   },
	   body => {
	      data_type => 'text',
	   },
	);

	1;

	# elsewhere:

	my $post = $blog_rs->create({
	  title => 'Components for fun and profit',
	  body	=> '...',
	});

	$post->title('Components for fun');

	warn sprintf 'Changing title from %s to %s',
	  $post->storage_value('title'), $post->title;

	$post->update;

DESCRIPTION

       This component keeps track of the value for a given column in the database.  If you change the column's value and do not call "update", the
       "storage_value" will be different; once "update" is called the "storage_value" will be set to the value of the accessor.  Note that the
       fact that it uses the accessor is an important distinction.  If you are using DBIx::Class::FilterColumn or DBIx::Class::InflateColumn it
       will get the non-storage or inflated values, respectively.

METHODS

   _has_storage_value
	$self->_has_storage_value('colname')

       returns true if we should store the storage value from the database.  Override this if you'd like to enable storage on all integers or
       something like that:

	sub _has_storage_value {
	   my ( $self, $column ) = @_;

	   my $info = $self->column_info($column);

	   return defined $info->{data_type} && $info->{data_type} eq 'integer';
	}

   storage_value_columns
	$self->storage_value_columns

       returns a list of columns to store

   get_storage_value
	$self->get_storage_value('colname')

       returns the value for that column which is in storage
