NAME
    Mojo::mysql - Mojolicious and Async MySQL

SYNOPSIS
      use Mojo::mysql;

      # Create a table
      my $mysql = Mojo::mysql->new('mysql://username@/test');
      $mysql->db->query(
        'create table names (id integer auto_increment primary key, name text)');

      # Insert a few rows
      my $db = $mysql->db;
      $db->query('insert into names (name) values (?)', 'Sara');
      $db->query('insert into names (name) values (?)', 'Stefan');

      # Insert more rows in a transaction
      eval {
        my $tx = $db->begin;
        $db->query('insert into names (name) values (?)', 'Baerbel');
        $db->query('insert into names (name) values (?)', 'Wolfgang');
        $tx->commit;
      };
      say $@ if $@;

      # Insert another row and return the generated id
      say $db->query('insert into names (name) values (?)', 'Daniel')
        ->last_insert_id;

      # Select one row at a time
      my $results = $db->query('select * from names');
      while (my $next = $results->hash) {
        say $next->{name};
      }

      # Select all rows blocking
      $db->query('select * from names')
        ->hashes->map(sub { $_->{name} })->join("\n")->say;

      # Select all rows non-blocking
      Mojo::IOLoop->delay(
        sub {
          my $delay = shift;
          $db->query('select * from names' => $delay->begin);
        },
        sub {
          my ($delay, $err, $results) = @_;
          $results->hashes->map(sub { $_->{name} })->join("\n")->say;
        }
      )->wait;

      # Send and receive notifications non-blocking
      $mysql->pubsub->listen(foo => sub {
        my ($pubsub, $payload) = @_;
        say "foo: $payload";
        $pubsub->notify(bar => $payload);
      });
      $mysql->pubsub->listen(bar => sub {
        my ($pubsub, $payload) = @_;
        say "bar: $payload";
      });
      $mysql->pubsub->notify(foo => 'MySQL rocks!');

      Mojo::IOLoop->start unless Mojo::IOLoop->is_running;

DESCRIPTION
    Mojo::mysql is a tiny wrapper around DBD::mysql that makes MySQL
    <http://www.mysql.org> a lot of fun to use with the Mojolicious
    <http://mojolicio.us> real-time web framework.

    Database and handles are cached automatically, so they can be reused
    transparently to increase performance. And you can handle connection
    timeouts gracefully by holding on to them only for short amounts of
    time.

      use Mojolicious::Lite;
      use Mojo::mysql;

      helper mysql =>
        sub { state $pg = Mojo::mysql->new('mysql://sri:s3cret@localhost/db') };

      get '/' => sub {
        my $c  = shift;
        my $db = $c->mysql->db;
        $c->render(json => $db->query('select now() as time')->hash);
      };

      app->start;

    While all I/O operations are performed blocking, you can wait for long
    running queries asynchronously, allowing the Mojo::IOLoop event loop to
    perform other tasks in the meantime. Since database connections usually
    have a very low latency, this often results in very good performance.

    Every database connection can only handle one active query at a time,
    this includes asynchronous ones. So if you start more than one, they
    will be put on a waiting list and performed sequentially. To perform
    multiple queries concurrently, you have to use multiple connections.

      # Performed sequentially (10 seconds)
      my $db = $mysql->db;
      $db->query('select sleep(5)' => sub {...});
      $db->query('select sleep(5)' => sub {...});

      # Performed concurrently (5 seconds)
      $mysql->db->query('select sleep(5)' => sub {...});
      $mysql->db->query('select sleep(5)' => sub {...});

    All cached database handles will be reset automatically if a new process
    has been forked, this allows multiple processes to share the same
    Mojo::mysql object safely.

    Note that this whole distribution is EXPERIMENTAL and will change
    without warning!

EVENTS
    Mojo::mysql inherits all events from Mojo::EventEmitter and can emit the
    following new ones.

  connection
      $mysql->on(connection => sub {
        my ($mysql, $dbh) = @_;
        ...
      });

    Emitted when a new database connection has been established.

ATTRIBUTES
    Mojo::mysql implements the following attributes.

  dsn
      my $dsn = $mysql->dsn;
      $mysql  = $mysql->dsn('dbi:mysql:dbname=foo');

    Data Source Name, defaults to "dbi:mysql:dbname=test".

  max_connections
      my $max = $mysql->max_connections;
      $mysql  = $mysql->max_connections(3);

    Maximum number of idle database handles to cache for future use,
    defaults to 5.

  migrations
      my $migrations = $mysql->migrations;
      $mysql         = $mysql->migrations(Mojo::mysql::Migrations->new);

    Mojo::mysql::Migrations object you can use to change your database
    schema more easily.

      # Load migrations from file and migrate to latest version
      $mysql->migrations->from_file('/Users/sri/migrations.sql')->migrate;

    MySQL does not support nested transactions and DDL transactions. DDL
    statements cause implicit "COMMIT". "ROLLBACK" will be called if any
    step of migration script fails, but only DML statements after the last
    implicit or explicit "COMMIT" can be reverted. Not all MySQL storage
    engines (like "MYISAM") support transactions.

    This means database will most likely be left in unknown state if
    migration script fails. Use this feature with caution and remember to
    always backup your database.

  options
      my $options = $mysql->options;
      $mysql      = $mysql->options({mysql_use_result => 1});

    Options for database handles, defaults to activating
    "mysql_enable_utf8", "AutoCommit", "AutoInactiveDestroy" as well as
    "RaiseError" and deactivating "PrintError". Note that "AutoCommit" and
    "RaiseError" are considered mandatory, so deactivating them would be
    very dangerous.

    "mysql_auto_reconnect" is never enabled, Mojo::mysql takes care of dead
    connections.

    "AutoCommit" cannot not be disabled, use $db->begin to manage
    transactions.

    "RaiseError" is enabled for blocking and disabled in event loop for
    non-blocking queries.

  password
      my $password = $mysql->password;
      $mysql       = $mysql->password('s3cret');

    Database password, defaults to an empty string.

  pubsub
      my $pubsub = $mysql->pubsub;
      $mysql     = $mysql->pubsub(Mojo::mysql::PubSub->new);

    Mojo::mysql::PubSub object you can use to send and receive notifications
    very efficiently, by sharing a single database connection with many
    consumers.

      # Subscribe to a channel
      $mysql->pubsub->listen(news => sub {
        my ($pubsub, $payload) = @_;
        say "Received: $payload";
      });

      # Notify a channel
      $mysql->pubsub->notify(news => 'MySQL rocks!');

  username
      my $username = $mysql->username;
      $mysql       = $mysql->username('batman');

    Database username, defaults to an empty string.

METHODS
    Mojo::mysql inherits all methods from Mojo::EventEmitter and implements
    the following new ones.

  db
      my $db = $mysql->db;

    Get Mojo::mysql::Database object for a cached or newly created database
    handle. The database handle will be automatically cached again when that
    object is destroyed, so you can handle connection timeouts gracefully by
    holding on to it only for short amounts of time.

  from_string
      $mysql = $mysql->from_string('mysql://user@/test');

    Parse configuration from connection string.

      # Just a database
      $mysql->from_string('mysql:///db1');

      # Username and database
      $mysql->from_string('mysql://batman@/db2');

      # Username, password, host and database
      $mysql->from_string('mysql://batman:s3cret@localhost/db3');

      # Username, domain socket and database
      $mysql->from_string('mysql://batman@%2ftmp%2fmysql.sock/db4');

      # Username, database and additional options
      $mysql->from_string('mysql://batman@/db5?PrintError=1&RaiseError=0');

  new
      my $mysql = Mojo::mysql->new;
      my $mysql = Mojo::mysql->new('mysql://user@/test');

    Construct a new Mojo::mysql object and parse connection string with
    "from_string" if necessary.
