It is not intended to function as a DBD itself. If you want to access flatfiles, use DBD::AnyData, or DBD::CSV, (both of which are subclasses of DBD::File). =head1 DESCRIPTION The DBD::File module is not a true DBI driver, but an abstract base class for deriving concrete DBI drivers from it. The implication is, that these drivers work with plain files, for example CSV files or INI files. The module is based on the SQL::Statement module, a simple SQL engine. See L for details on DBI, L for details on SQL::Statement and L or L for example drivers. =head2 Metadata The following attributes are handled by DBI itself and not by DBD::File, thus they all work like expected: Active ActiveKids CachedKids CompatMode (Not used) InactiveDestroy Kids PrintError RaiseError Warn (Not used) The following DBI attributes are handled by DBD::File: =over 4 =item AutoCommit Always on =item ChopBlanks Works =item NUM_OF_FIELDS Valid after C<$sth->execute> =item NUM_OF_PARAMS Valid after C<$sth->prepare> =item NAME Valid after C<$sth->execute>; undef for Non-Select statements. =item NULLABLE Not really working, always returns an array ref of one's, as DBD::CSV doesn't verify input data. Valid after C<$sth->execute>; undef for Non-Select statements. =back These attributes and methods are not supported: bind_param_inout CursorName LongReadLen LongTruncOk Additional to the DBI attributes, you can use the following dbh attribute: =over 4 =item f_dir This attribute is used for setting the directory where CSV files are opened. Usually you set it in the dbh, it defaults to the current directory ("."). However, it is overwritable in the statement handles. =item f_ext This attribute is used for setting the file extension where (CSV) files are opened. There are several possibilities. DBI:CSV:f_dir=data;f_ext=.csv In this case, DBD::File will open only C if both C and C exist in the datadir. The table will still be named C
. If your datadir has files with extensions, and you do not pass this attribute, your table is named C, which is probably not what you wanted. The extension is always case-insensitive. The table names are not. DBI:CSV:f_dir=data;f_ext=.csv/r In this case the extension is required, and all filenames that do not match are ignored. =item f_schema This will set the schema name. Default is the owner of the folder in which the table file resides. C is allowed. my $dbh = DBI->connect ("dbi:CSV:", "", "", { f_schema => undef, f_dir => "data", f_ext => ".csv/r", }) or die $DBI::errstr; The effect is that when you get table names from DBI, you can force all tables into the same (or no) schema: my @tables $dbh->tables (); # no f_schema "merijn".foo "merijn".bar # f_schema => "dbi" "dbi".foo "dbi".bar # f_schema => undef foo bar =back =head2 Driver private methods =over 4 =item data_sources The C method returns a list of subdirectories of the current directory in the form "DBI:CSV:f_dir=$dirname". If you want to read the subdirectories of another directory, use my ($drh) = DBI->install_driver ("CSV"); my (@list) = $drh->data_sources (f_dir => "/usr/local/csv_data" ); =item list_tables This method returns a list of file names inside $dbh->{f_dir}. Example: my ($dbh) = DBI->connect ("DBI:CSV:f_dir=/usr/local/csv_data"); my (@list) = $dbh->func ("list_tables"); Note that the list includes all files contained in the directory, even those that have non-valid table names, from the view of SQL. =back =head1 KNOWN BUGS =over 8 =item * The module is using flock () internally. However, this function is not available on all platforms. Using flock () is disabled on MacOS and Windows 95: There's no locking at all (perhaps not so important on MacOS and Windows 95, as there's a single user anyways). =back =head1 AUTHOR This module is currently maintained by H.Merijn Brand < h.m.brand at xs4all.nl > and Jens Rehsack < rehsack at googlemail.com > The original author is Jochen Wiedmann. =head1 COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE Copyright (C) 2009 by H.Merijn Brand & Jens Rehsack Copyright (C) 2004 by Jeff Zucker Copyright (C) 1998 by Jochen Wiedmann All rights reserved.
