Gauche-dbd-mysql: MySQL (5.0 or later) native driver and DBD interface module.

PREREQUISITES

• Gauche 0.9.7 or later
• MySQL 5.0 or later
• MySQL client development library & header files

(If you're using Gauche 0.9.6 or before, see 'Using with pre-0.9.7 Gauche' section below).

PREPARATION

In order to run the test, you need a test user and test database. The following mysql commands sets it up. You can drop those after the test is done:

create user 'kahua_test'@'localhost' identified by 'kahua_secret';
create database kahua_test character set 'utf8';
grant all on kahua_test.* to 'kahua_test'@'localhost';

BUILD, TEST and INSTALL

A quick one-liner from tarball:

gauche-package install -S root Gauche-dbd-mysql-X.X.tgz

From source tree:

git clone https://github.com/kahua/Gauche-dbd-mysql
cd Gauche-dbd-mysql
./configure
make
make -s check
sudo make install

API Documentation

The easier way is to use it through dbi interface. Here's an example session.

(use dbi)
(use gauche.sequence) ; get generic 'map' etc

(define conn (dbi-connect "dbi:mysql:DBNAME;host=HOST"
                          :username USERNAME :password PASSWORD))

(dbi-do conn "create table test (id integer, name varchar(255))")

(let1 q (dbi-prepare conn "insert into test (id, name) values (?, ?)")
  (dbi-execute q 10 "Alice")
  (dbi-execute q 20 "Bob"))

(map (lambda (row)
       (list (dbi-get-value row 0) (dbi-get-value row 1)))
     (dbi-do conn "select id, name from test"))
 ; => (("10" "Alice") ("20" "Bob"))

(let1 q (dbi-prepare conn "select name from test where id = ?")
  (coerce-to <list> (dbi-execute q 20)))
 ; => (#("Bob"))

The only mysql-specific part is the call to dbi-connect; you have to give the name of the database (DBNAME) and hostname (HOST) as shown. If you need to pass username and password, give them using keyword arguments. All the rest are generic dbi operations; see dbi manual entry of Gauche document

The module also provides low-level API that corresponds to MySQL API.

Using with pre-0.9.7 Gauche

Gauche-dbd-mysql 0.4 requires Gauche-0.9.7. If you want to use dbd.mysql module with Gauche 0.9.6 or before (Gauche 0.8.6 or after), you need to use Gauche-dbd-mysql 0.3. To build 0.3 from the source repo, check out the tag release0_3:

git clone https://github.com/kahua/Gauche-dbd-mysql
cd Gauche-dbd-mysql
git checkout release0_3
./DIST gen
./configure
make
make -s check
sudo make install
