We will probably need to tease this apart more later and create an abstract base class for search plugins. .SH "METHODS" .IX Header "METHODS" .SS "new" .IX Subsection "new" .Vb 3 \& my $searcher = Class::DBI::Search::Basic\->new( \& $cdbi_class, @search_args \& ); .Ve .PP A Searcher is created with the class to which the results will belong, and the arguments passed to the search call by the user. .SS "opt" .IX Subsection "opt" .Vb 1 \& if (my $order = $self\->opt(\*(Aqorder_by\*(Aq)) { ... } .Ve .PP The arguments passed to search may contain an options hash. This will return the value of a given option. .SS "run_search" .IX Subsection "run_search" .Vb 2 \& my @results = $searcher\->run_search; \& my $iterator = $searcher\->run_search; .Ve .PP Actually run the search. .SH "SUBCLASSING" .IX Header "SUBCLASSING" .SS "sql / bind / fragment" .IX Subsection "sql / bind / fragment" The actual mechanics of generating the \s-1SQL\s0 and executing it split up into a variety of methods for you to override. .PP \&\fBrun_search()\fR is implemented as: .PP .Vb 1 \& return $cdbi\->sth_to_objects($self\->sql, $self\->bind); .Ve .PP Where \fBsql()\fR is .PP .Vb 1 \& $cdbi\->sql_Retrieve($self\->fragment); .Ve .PP There are also a variety of private methods underneath this that could be overridden in a pinch, but if you need to do this I'd rather you let me know so that I can make them public, or at least so that I don't remove them from under your feet.
