DESCRIPTION

The package describes all spaces used in an application. It supports the following field types:

NUM, NUM64, STR

The standard Tarantool types.

UTF8STR

The same as STR, but the string is utf8-decoded after it's received from the server.

INT & INT64

The same as NUM and NUM64, but contain signed values.

JSON

The field is encoded with JSON::XS when putting into a database, and decoded after is received back from the server.

METHODS

new

    my $spaces = DR::Tarantool::Spaces->new( $spaces );

space

Return space object by number or name.

    my $space = $spaces->space('name');
    my $space = $spaces->space(0);

space_number

Return space number by its name.

pack_field

Packs one field into a format suitable for making a database request:

    my $field = $spaces->pack_field('space', 'field', $data);

unpack_field

Unpack one field after getting it from the server:

    my $field = $spaces->unpack_field('space', 'field', $data);

pack_tuple

Pack a tuple before making database request.

    my $t = $spaces->pack_tuple('space', [ 1, 2, 3 ]);

unpack_tuple

Unpack a tuple after getting it from the database:

    my $t = $spaces->unpack_tuple('space', \@fields);

SPACES methods

new

constructor

    use DR::Tarantool::Spaces;
    my $space = DR::Tarantool::Space->new($no, $space);

tuple_class

Create (or return) a class to hold tuple data. The class is a descendant of DR::Tarantool::Tuple. Returns a unique class (package) name. If a package with such name is already exists, the method doesn't recreate it.

name

Get a space name.

number

Get a space number.

field_number

Return field index by field name.

tail_index

Return index of the first element that is not described in the space.

pack_field

Pack a field before making a database request.

unpack_field

Unpack a single field in a server response.

pack_tuple

Pack a tuple to the binary protocol format:

unpack_tuple

Unpack a tuple in a server response.

index_number

returns index number by its name.

index_name

returns index name by its number.
