=head1 NAME

DBIx::Class::Helper::ResultSet::Shortcut - Shortcuts to common searches (->order_by, etc)

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 package MyApp::Schema::ResultSet::Foo;

 __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw{Helper::ResultSet::Shortcut});

 ...

 1;

And then elsewhere:

 # let's say you grab a resultset from somewhere else
 my $foo_rs = get_common_rs()
 # but I'd like it sorted!
   ->order_by({ -desc => 'power_level' })
 # and without those other dumb columns
   ->columns([qw/cromulence_ratio has_jimmies_rustled/])
 # but get rid of those duplicates
   ->distinct
 # and put those straight into hashrefs, please
   ->hri
 # but only give me the first 3
   ->rows(3);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This helper provides convenience methods for resultset modifications.

See L<DBIx::Class::Helper::ResultSet/NOTE> for a nice way to apply it to your
entire schema.

=head1 SEE ALSO

This component is actually a number of other components put together.  It will
get more components added to it over time.  If you are worried about all the
extra methods you won't use or something, using the individual shortcuts is
a simple solution.  All the documentation will remain here, but the individual
components are:

=head1 METHODS

=head2 distinct

 $foo_rs->distinct

 # equivalent to...
 $foo_rs->search(undef, { distinct => 1 });

=head2 group_by

 $foo_rs->group_by([ qw/ some column names /])

 # equivalent to...
 $foo_rs->search(undef, { group_by => [ qw/ some column names /] });

=head2 order_by

 $foo_rs->order_by({ -desc => 'col1' });

 # equivalent to...
 $foo_rs->search(undef, { order_by => { -desc => 'col1' } });

You can also specify the order as a "magic string", e.g.:

 $foo_rs->order_by('!col1')       # ->order_by({ -desc => 'col1' })
 $foo_rs->order_by('col1,col2')   # ->order_by([qw(col1 col2)])
 $foo_rs->order_by('col1,!col2')  # ->order_by([{ -asc => 'col1' }, { -desc => 'col2' }])
 $foo_rs->order_by(qw(col1 col2)) # ->order_by([qw(col1 col2)])

Can mix it all up as well:

 $foo_rs->order_by(qw(col1 col2 col3), 'col4,!col5')

=head2 hri

 $foo_rs->hri;

 # equivalent to...
 $foo_rs->search(undef, {
    result_class => 'DBIx::Class::ResultClass::HashRefInflator'
 });

=head2 rows

 $foo_rs->rows(10);

 # equivalent to...
 $foo_rs->search(undef, { rows => 10 })

=head2 limit

This is an alias for C<rows>.

  $foo_rs->limit(10);

  # equivalent to...
  $foo_rs->rows(10);

=head2 has_rows

A lighter way to check the resultset contains any data rather than
calling C<< $rs->count >>.

=head2 page

 $foo_rs->page(2);

 # equivalent to...
 $foo_rs->search(undef, { page => 2 })

=head2 limited_page

 $foo_rs->limited_page(2, 3);

 # equivalent to...
 $foo_rs->search(undef, { page => 2, rows => 3 })

=head2 columns

 $foo_rs->columns([qw/ some column names /]);

 # equivalent to...
 $foo_rs->search(undef, { columns => [qw/ some column names /] });

=head2 add_columns

 $foo_rs->add_columns([qw/ some column names /]);

 # equivalent to...
 $foo_rs->search(undef, { '+columns' => [qw/ some column names /] });

=head2 prefetch

 $foo_rs->prefetch('bar');

 # equivalent to...
 $foo_rs->search(undef, { prefetch => 'bar' });

=head2 results_exist

 my $results_exist = $schema->resultset('Bar')->search({...})->results_exist;

Uses C<EXISTS> SQL function to check if the query would return anything.
Possibly lighter weight than the much more common C<< foo() if $rs->count >>
idiom.
