Overview

Setup and Configuration

DataMapper uses URIs or a connection hash to connect to your data-store. URI connections takes the form of:

DataMapper.setup(:default, 'protocol://username:password@localhost:port/path/to/repo')

Breaking this down, the first argument is the name you wish to give this connection. If you do not specify one, it will be assigned :default. If you would like to connect to more than one data-store, simply issue this command again, but with a different name specified.

In order to issue ORM commands without specifying the repository context, you must define the :default database. Otherwise, you'll need to wrap your ORM calls in repository(:name) { }.

Second, the URI breaks down into the access protocol, the username, the server, the password, and whatever path information is needed to properly address the data-store on the server.

Here's some examples

DataMapper.setup(:default, 'sqlite3://path/to/your/project/db/development.db')
DataMapper.setup(:default, 'mysql://localhost/dm_core_test')
  # no auth-info
DataMapper.setup(:default, 'postgres://root:supahsekret@127.0.0.1/dm_core_test')
  # with auth-info

Alternatively, you can supply a hash as the second parameter, which would take the form:

DataMapper.setup(:default, {
  :adapter  => 'adapter_name_here',
  :database => 'path/to/repo',
  :username => 'username',
  :password => 'password',
  :host     => 'hostname'
})

Logging

To turn on error logging to STDOUT, issue:

DataMapper::Logger.new($stdout, :debug)

You can pass a file location (“/path/to/log/file.log”) in place of $stdout. see DataMapper::Logger for more information.

Class Method Details

+ (self) finalize

Perform necessary steps to finalize DataMapper for the current repository

This method should be called after loading all models and plugins.

It ensures foreign key properties and anonymous join models are created. These are otherwise lazily declared, which can lead to unexpected errors. It also performs basic validity checking of the DataMapper models.

Returns:

  • (self)

def self.finalize
  Model.descendants.each { |model| model.finalize }
  self
end

+ (Object) repository(name = nil) {|Proc| ... }

Block Syntax

Pushes the named repository onto the context-stack,
yields a new session, and pops the context-stack.

Non-Block Syntax

Returns the current session, or if there is none,
a new Session.

Parameters:

  • args (Symbol) —

    the name of a repository to act within or return, :default is default

Yields:

  • (Proc) —

    (optional) block to execute within the context of the named repository

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

+ (DataMapper::Adapters::AbstractAdapter) setup(*args)

Setups up a connection to a data-store

Parameters:

  • name (Symbol) —

    a name for the context, defaults to :default

  • uri_or_options (Hash(Symbol => String), Addressable::URI, String) —

    connection information

Returns:

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError) —

    “name must be a Symbol, but was…” indicates that an invalid argument was passed for name

  • (ArgumentError) —

    “uri_or_options must be a Hash, URI or String, but was…” indicates that connection information could not be gleaned from the given uri_or_options[Hash, Addressable::URI, String]
