NAME

Test::Mojo::Pg - a helper for dealing with Pg during tests

SYNOPSIS

 use Test::Mojo::Pg;
 my $db;
 # Bring up database to prepare for tests
 BEGIN {
   $db = Test::Mojo::Pg->new(host => 'ananke', db => 'mydb'), 'Test::Mojo::Pg';
   $db->construct;
 }
 # Tear down the database to clean the environment
 END {
   $db->deconstruct;
 }

DESCRIPTION

Test::Mojo::Pg makes the creation and removal of a transitory database during testing when using Mojo::Pg. This is useful when every test should work from a 'clean' database.

CONSTRUCTOR

You can either pass options in when calling the constructor or set the attributes later.

 my $p1 = Test::Mojo::Pg->new();
 my $p2 = Test::Mojo::Pg->new(host=>'myhost', db => 'db1');

Option keys match the attribute names.

ATTRIBUTES

The following are the attributes for this module.

host

Sets the Postgres server hostname. If omitted, no hostname (or port, if defined) will be configured for the connection string (which effectively means use localhost).

port

Sets the Postgres server port. If omitted, no port will be configured for the connection string.

db

Sets the test database name.

default: testdb

username

Sets the login username. If omitted, no username will be provided to the server.

password

Sets the login password. If omitted, no password will be provided to the server.

migsql

Sets the file to use for Mojo::Pg::Migrations. If no sql file is provided, a warning will be emitted that only an empty database has been provided.

verbose

Enables verbose output of operations such as the server's version string.

 # get the verbose level - 0|1
 $p->verbose;
 # set the verbose level to 'on'
 $p->verbose(1);

METHODS

The following are the methods for this module.

connstring

Returns the connection string for the database. Returns the connection string for the dbms by passing in '1'.

  my $testdb_connstring = $testdb->connstring;
  my $testdb_dbms = $testdb->connstring(1);

construct

The construct method removes current connections to the database and the database itself if it exists, creates a new database, and loads the migrations file if it's defined. This normally gets called from the BEGIN block.

  $testdb->construct;

deconstruct

The deconstruct method removes current connections to the database and the database itself if it exists. This normally gets called from the END block.

  $testdb->desconstruct;

create_database

Creates the database as defined by the connection string.

  $testdb->create_database;

drop_database

Drops the database as defined by the connection string.

  $testdb->drop_database;

get_version

  my $version = $testdb->get_version;

Retrieve the database version.

remove_connections

Force removal of connection related data in the dbms. Many times required in order to drop the database.

  $testdb->remove_connections;
