NAME SQLite::Counter::Simple - A simple counter using SQLite VERSION This document describes version 0.003 of SQLite::Counter::Simple (from Perl distribution SQLite-Counter-Simple), released on 2021-06-21. SYNOPSIS From Perl: use SQLite::Counter::Simple qw(increment_sqlite_counter get_sqlite_counter); # increment and get the dafault counter my $res; $res = increment_sqlite_counter(); # => [200, "OK", 1] $res = increment_sqlite_counter(); # => [200, "OK", 2] # dry-run mode $res = increment_sqlite_counter(-dry_run=>1); # => [200, "OK (dry-run)", 3] $res = increment_sqlite_counter(-dry_run=>1); # => [200, "OK (dry-run)", 3] # specify database path and counter name, and also the increment $res = increment_sqlite_counter(path=>"/home/ujang/myapp.db", counter=>"counter1"); # => [200, "OK", 1] $res = increment_sqlite_counter(path=>"/home/ujang/myapp.db", counter=>"counter1", increment=>10); # => [200, "OK", 11] # get the current value of counter $res = get_sqlite_counter(); # => [200, "OK", 3, {'cmdline.exit_code'=>0}] $res = get_sqlite_counter(counter=>'foo'); # => [200, "OK", undef, {'cmdline.exit_code'=>1}] From command-line (install App::SQLiteCounterSimpeUtils): # increment the dafault counter % increment-sqlite-counter 1 % increment-sqlite-counter 2 # dry-run mode % increment-sqlite-counter --dry-run 3 % increment-sqlite-counter --dry-run 3 # specify database path and counter name, and also the increment % increment-sqlite-counter ~/myapp.db counter1 1 % increment-sqlite-counter ~/myapp.db counter1 -i 10 11 DESCRIPTION This module provides simple counter using SQLite as the storage. The logic is simple; this module just uses row of a table to store a counter. You can implement this yourself, but this module provides the convenience of incrementing or getting the value of a counter using a single function call or a single CLI script invocation. FUNCTIONS dump_sqlite_counters Usage: dump_sqlite_counters(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Return all the counters in a SQLite database as a hash. This function is not exported. This function supports dry-run operation. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * path => *filename* Database path. If not specified, will default to $HOME/counter.db. If file does not exist, will be created by DBD::SQLite. If you want an in-memory database (that will be destroyed after your process exits), use ":memory:". Special arguments: * -dry_run => *bool* Pass -dry_run=>1 to enable simulation mode. Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) get_sqlite_counter Usage: get_sqlite_counter(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Get the current value of a counter in a SQLite database. Undef (exit code 1 in CLI) can be returned if counter does not exist. This function is not exported. This function supports dry-run operation. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * counter => *str* Counter name, defaults to "default" if not specified. * path => *filename* Database path. If not specified, will default to $HOME/counter.db. If file does not exist, will be created by DBD::SQLite. If you want an in-memory database (that will be destroyed after your process exits), use ":memory:". Special arguments: * -dry_run => *bool* Pass -dry_run=>1 to enable simulation mode. Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) increment_sqlite_counter Usage: increment_sqlite_counter(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta] Increment a counter in a SQLite database and return the new incremented value. The first time a counter is created, it will be set to 0 then incremented to 1, and 1 will be returned. The next increment will increment the counter to two and return it. If dry-run mode is chosen, the value that is returned is the value had the counter been incremented, but the counter will not be actually incremented. This function is not exported. This function supports dry-run operation. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * counter => *str* Counter name, defaults to "default" if not specified. * increment => *int* (default: 1) Specify by how many should the counter be incremented. * path => *filename* Database path. If not specified, will default to $HOME/counter.db. If file does not exist, will be created by DBD::SQLite. If you want an in-memory database (that will be destroyed after your process exits), use ":memory:". Special arguments: * -dry_run => *bool* Pass -dry_run=>1 to enable simulation mode. Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error).

Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata. Return value: (any) METHODS Aside from the functional interface, this module also provides the OO interface. new Constructor. Usage: my $counter = SQLite::Counter::Simple->new(%args); Known arguments ("*" marks required argument): * path Database path, defaults to "$HOME/counter.db". increment Increment counter. Usage: my $newval = $counter->increment(%args); Arguments: * counter Counter name, defaults to "default". * increment Increment, defaults to 1. get Get current value of a counter. Usage: my $val = $counter->get(%args); Arguments: * counter Counter name, defaults to "default". HOMEPAGE Please visit the project's homepage at . SOURCE Source repository is at .
