Perl ORM with Moo

Question

I'd like to use Moo as the Object Oriented approach for my app (with a relational database). I had used DBIx::Class & Rose::DB::Object in the past, but these distributions are not Moo (neither Moose) related. I am looking for an ORM (or similar) with a Moo integration, do you know if this exists, or anyone has related plans?

Answer 1

I'm working on something very similar actually - I wanted a Moo-based approach, too. Technically I'm writing it to learn more about Moo, wasn't meant for anything serious, but you might be able to build on it if you wished :-)

Answer 2

I don't know what do you mean by Moo integration, but I just installed the last version of DBIx::Class and saw that Moo was installed as a dependency. So, in version 0.08209, DBIx::Class has Moo as a dependency

Have a look at DBIx::Mint You will need to add a role to your Moo classes

with 'DBIx::Mint::Table';

And also write a schema file. This schema file should have all information on classes you're going to use (class-to-table mapping, relationship to other tables/classes). No need to write schema file for each Moo class.
