=head1 NAME
DBIx::Class::Ordered - Modify the position of objects in an ordered list.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
Create a table for your ordered data.
CREATE TABLE items (
item_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
name TEXT NOT NULL,
position INTEGER NOT NULL
);
# Optional: group_id INTEGER NOT NULL
In your Schema or DB class add Ordered to the top
of the component list.
__PACKAGE__->load_components(qw( Ordered ... ));
Specify the column that stores the position number for
each row.
package My::Item;
__PACKAGE__->position_column('position');
__PACKAGE__->grouping_column('group_id'); # optional
Thats it, now you can change the position of your objects.
#!/use/bin/perl
use My::Item;
my $item = My::Item->create({ name=>'Matt S. Trout' });
# If using grouping_column:
my $item = My::Item->create({ name=>'Matt S. Trout', group_id=>1 });
my $rs = $item->siblings();
my @siblings = $item->siblings();
my $sibling;
$sibling = $item->first_sibling();
$sibling = $item->last_sibling();
$sibling = $item->previous_sibling();

$item->move_last();
$item->move_to( $position );
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module provides a simple interface for modifying the ordered
position of DBIx::Class objects.
=head1 AUTO UPDATE
All of the move_* methods automatically update the rows involved in
the query. This is not configurable and is due to the fact that if you
move a record it always causes other records in the list to be updated.
=head1 METHODS
=head2 position_column
__PACKAGE__->position_column('position');
Sets and retrieves the name of the column that stores the
positional value of each record. Default to "position".
=cut
__PACKAGE__->mk_classdata( 'position_column' => 'position' );
=head2 grouping_column
__PACKAGE__->grouping_column('group_id');
This method specified a column to limit all queries in
this module by. This effectively allows you to have multiple
ordered lists within the same table.
=cut
__PACKAGE__->mk_classdata( 'grouping_column' );
=head2 siblings
my $rs = $item->siblings();
my @siblings = $item->siblings();
Returns either a result set or an array of all other objects
excluding the one you called it on.
=cut
sub siblings {
my( $self ) = @_;
my $position_column = $self->position_column;
my $rs = $self->result_source->resultset->search(
{
$position_column => { '!=' => $self->get_column($position_column) },
$self->_grouping_clause(),
},
{ order_by => $self->position_column },
);
return $rs->all() if (wantarray());
return $rs;
}
=head2 first_sibling
my $sibling = $item->first_sibling();
Returns the first sibling object, or 0 if the first sibling
is this sibliing.
=cut
sub first_sibling {
my( $self ) = @_;
return 0 if ($self->get_column($self->position_column())==1);
return ($self->result_source->resultset->search(
{
$self->position_column => 1,
$self->_grouping_clause(),
},
)->all())[0];
}
=head2 last_sibling
my $sibling = $item->last_sibling();
Return the last sibling, or 0 if the last sibling is this
sibling.
=cut
sub last_sibling {
my( $self ) = @_;
my $count = $self->result_source->resultset->search({$self->_grouping_clause()})->count();
return 0 if ($self->get_column($self->position_column())==$count);
return ($self->result_source->resultset->search(
{
$self->position_column => $count,
$self->_grouping_clause(),
},
)->all())[0];
}
=head2 previous_sibling
my $sibling = $item->previous_sibling();
Returns the sibling that resides one position back. Undef
is returned if the current object is the first one.
=cut
sub previous_sibling {
my( $self ) = @_;
my $position_column = $self->position_column;
my $position = $self->get_column( $position_column );
return 0 if ($position==1);
return ($self->result_source->resultset->search(
{
$position_column => $position - 1,
$self->_grouping_clause(),
}
)->all())[0];
}
=head2 next_sibling
my $sibling = $item->next_sibling();
Returns the sibling that resides one position foward. Undef
is returned if the current object is the last one.
=cut
sub next_sibling {
my( $self ) = @_;
my $position_column = $self->position_column;
my $position = $self->get_column( $position_column );
my $count = $self->result_source->resultset->search({$self->_grouping_clause()})->count();
return 0 if ($position==$count);
return ($self->result_source->resultset->search(
{
$position_column => $position + 1,
$self->_grouping_clause(),
},
)->all())[0];
}
=head2 move_previous
$item->move_previous();
Swaps position with the sibling on position previous in the list.
1 is returned on success, and 0 is returned if the objects is already
the first one.
=cut
sub move_previous {
my( $self ) = @_;
my $position = $self->get_column( $self->position_column() );
return $self->move_to( $position - 1 );
}
=head2 move_next
$item->move_next();
Swaps position with the sibling in the next position. 1 is returned on
success, and 0 is returned if the object is already the last in the list.
=cut
sub move_next {
my( $self ) = @_;
my $position = $self->get_column( $self->position_column() );
my $count = $self->result_source->resultset->search({$self->_grouping_clause()})->count();
return 0 if ($position==$count);
return $self->move_to( $position + 1 );
}
=head2 move_first
$item->move_first();
Moves the object to the first position. 1 is returned on
success, and 0 is returned if the object is already the first.
=cut
sub move_first {
my( $self ) = @_;
return $self->move_to( 1 );
}
=head2 move_last
$item->move_last();
Moves the object to the very last position. 1 is returned on
success, and 0 is returned if the object is already the last one.
=cut
sub move_last {
my( $self ) = @_;
my $count = $self->result_source->resultset->search({$self->_grouping_clause()})->count();
return $self->move_to( $count );
}
=head2 move_to
$item->move_to( $position );
Moves the object to the specified position. 1 is returned on
success, and 0 is returned if the object is already at the
specified position.
=cut
sub move_to {
my( $self, $to_position ) = @_;
my $position_column = $self->position_column;
my $from_position = $self->get_column( $position_column );
return 0 if ( $to_position < 1 );
return 0 if ( $from_position==$to_position );
my @between = (
( $from_position < $to_position )
? ( $from_position+1, $to_position )
: ( $to_position, $from_position-1 )
);
my $rs = $self->result_source->resultset->search({
$position_column => { -between => [ @between ] },
$self->_grouping_clause(),
});
my $op = ($from_position>$to_position) ? '+' : '-';
$rs->update({ $position_column => \"$position_column $op 1" });
$self->update({ $position_column => $to_position });
return 1;
}
=head2 insert
Overrides the DBIC insert() method by providing a default
position number. The default will be the number of rows in
the table +1, thus positioning the new record at the last position.
=cut
sub insert {
my $self = shift;
my $position_column = $self->position_column;
$self->set_column( $position_column => $self->result_source->resultset->search( {$self->_grouping_clause()} )->count()+1 )
if (!$self->get_column($position_column));
return $self->next::method( @_ );
}
=head2 delete
Overrides the DBIC delete() method by first moving the object
to the last position, then deleting it, thus ensuring the
integrity of the positions.
=cut
sub delete {
my $self = shift;
$self->move_last;
return $self->next::method( @_ );
}
=head1 PRIVATE METHODS
These methods are used internally. You should never have the
need to use them.
=head2 _grouping_clause
This method returns a name=>value pare for limiting a search
by the collection column. If the collection column is not
defined then this will return an empty list.
=cut
sub _grouping_clause {
my( $self ) = @_;
my $col = $self->grouping_column();
if ($col) {
return ( $col => $self->get_column($col) );
}
return ();
}
1;
__END__
=head1 BUGS
=head2 Unique Constraints
Unique indexes and constraints on the position column are not
supported at this time. It would be make sense to support them,
but there are some unexpected database issues that make this
hard to do. The main problem from the author's view is that
SQLite (the DB engine that we use for testing) does not support
ORDER BY on updates.
=head2 Race Condition on Insert
If a position is not specified for an insert than a position
will be chosen based on COUNT(*)+1. But, it first selects the
count then inserts the record. The space of time between select
and insert introduces a race condition. To fix this we need the
ability to lock tables in DBIC. I've added an entry in the TODO
about this.
=head2 Multiple Moves
Be careful when issueing move_* methods to multiple objects. If
you've pre-loaded the objects then when you move one of the objects
the position of the other object will not reflect their new value
until you reload them from the database.
There are times when you will want to move objects as groups, such
as changeing the parent of several objects at once - this directly
conflicts with this problem. One solution is for us to write a
ResultSet class that supports a parent() method, for example. Another
solution is to somehow automagically modify the objects that exist
in the current object's result set to have the new position value.
