DBIx::Class::PK::Auto(3p)

NAME
DBIx::Class::PK::Auto - Automatic primary key class

SYNOPSIS
__PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/Core/); __PACKAGE__->set_primary_key('id');

DESCRIPTION
This class overrides the insert method to get automatically incremented primary keys.

  __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/Core/);

PK::Auto is now part of Core.

See DBIx::Class::Manual::Component for details of component interactions.

LOGIC
"PK::Auto" does this by letting the database assign the primary key field and fetching the assigned value afterwards.

METHODS

  insert
The code that was handled here is now in Row for efficiency.

  sequence
Manually define the correct sequence for your table, to avoid the overhead associated with looking up the sequence automatically.
