DBD::Gofer::Transport::corostream(3)




NAME

       DBD::Gofer::Transport::corostream - Async DBD::Gofer stream transport
       using Coro and AnyEvent


SYNOPSIS

          DBI_AUTOPROXY="dbi:Gofer:transport=corostream" perl some-perl-script-using-dbi.pl

       or

          $dsn = ...; # the DSN for the driver and database you want to use
          $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Gofer:transport=corostream;dsn=$dsn", ...);


DESCRIPTION

       The BIG WIN from using Coro is that it enables the use of existing DBI
       frameworks like DBIx::Class.


KNOWN ISSUES AND LIMITATIONS

         - Uses Coro::Select so alters CORE::select globally
           Parent class probably needs refactoring to enable a more encapsulated approach.

         - Doesn't prevent multiple concurrent requests
           Probably just needs a per-connection semaphore

         - Coro has many caveats. Caveat emptor.


STATUS

       THIS IS CURRENTLY JUST A PROOF-OF-CONCEPT IMPLEMENTATION FOR
       EXPERIMENTATION.

       Please note that I have no plans to develop this code further myself.
       I'd very much welcome contributions. Interested? Let me know!

APPENDIX

       Example code:

           #!perl

           use strict;
           use warnings;
           use Time::HiRes qw(time);

           BEGIN { $ENV{PERL_ANYEVENT_STRICT} = 1; $ENV{PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE} = 1; }

           use AnyEvent;

           BEGIN { $ENV{DBI_TRACE} = 0; $ENV{DBI_GOFER_TRACE} = 0; $ENV{DBD_GOFER_TRACE} = 0; };

           use DBI;

           $ENV{DBI_AUTOPROXY} = 'dbi:Gofer:transport=corostream';

           my $ticker = AnyEvent->timer( after => 0, interval => 0.1, cb => sub {
               warn sprintf "-tick- %.2f\n", time
           } );

           warn "connecting...\n";
           my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:NullP:");
           warn "...connected\n";

           for (1..3) {
               warn "entering DBI...\n";
               $dbh->do("sleep 0.3"); # pseudo-sql understood by the DBD::NullP driver
               warn "...returned\n";
           }

           warn "done.";

       Example output:

           $ perl corogofer.pl
           connecting...
           -tick- 1293631437.14
           -tick- 1293631437.14
           ...connected
           entering DBI...
           -tick- 1293631437.25
           -tick- 1293631437.35
           -tick- 1293631437.45
           -tick- 1293631437.55
           ...returned
           entering DBI...
           -tick- 1293631437.66
           -tick- 1293631437.76
           -tick- 1293631437.86
           ...returned
           entering DBI...
           -tick- 1293631437.96
           -tick- 1293631438.06
           -tick- 1293631438.16
           ...returned
           done. at corogofer.pl line 39.

       You can see that the timer callback is firing while the code 'waits'
       inside the do() method for the response from the database. Normally
       that would block.
