NAME Parse::SQLOutput - Parse SQL table output SYNOPSIS use Parse::SQLOutput; my $sql_table_output = ... my $data = Parse::SQLOutput->new(<options>)->parse($sql_table_output); DESCRIPTION This module can parse the pretty printed tables you get from SQL queries, into Perl data structures. There are a few options depending on how you want the data to be formatted. NOTE: This has only been tested with simple MySQL output so far. Patches welcome. OPTIONS This parser can return your data in various forms depending on your needs: "->new(as => 'hoh'|'hol'|'loh'|'lol')" Specify the form that the result should be formatted in. Hash-of-hash, hash-of- list, list-of-hash or list-of-list. Default is 'hoh'. "->new(header => 0|1)" Specify whether the header values should be returned. Default is 0. If the result is a hash, the header will be in the key of '' (empty string). "->new(key => 'key-name')" If the result is a 'hash', specify which column to use as the key of the hash. The default is '', which means to use the first column's name. AUTHOR Ingy döt Net <ingy@cpan.org> COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE Copyright 2012-2014. Ingy döt Net.
