.SH "NAME"
DBD::Sponge \- Create a DBI statement handle from Perl data
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 7
\&  my $sponge = DBI\->connect("dbi:Sponge:","","",{ RaiseError => 1 });
\&  my $sth = $sponge\->prepare($statement, {
\&          rows => $data,
\&          NAME => $names,
\&          %attr
\&      }
\&  );

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
DBD::Sponge is useful for making a Perl data structure accessible through a
standard \s-1DBI\s0 statement handle. This may be useful to \s-1DBD\s0 module authors who
need to transform data in this way.
.SH "METHODS"
.IX Header "METHODS"
.SS "\fBconnect()\fP"
.IX Subsection "connect()"
.Vb 1
\&  my $sponge = DBI\->connect("dbi:Sponge:","","",{ RaiseError => 1 });
.Ve
.PP
Here's a sample syntax for creating a database handle for the Sponge driver.
No username and password are needed.
.SS "\fBprepare()\fP"
.IX Subsection "prepare()"
.Vb 6
\&  my $sth = $sponge\->prepare($statement, {
\&          rows => $data,
\&          NAME => $names,
\&          %attr
\&      }
\&  );
.Ve
.IP "\(bu" 4
The \f(CW$statement\fR here is an arbitrary statement or name you want
to provide as identity of your data. If you're using DBI::Profile
it will appear in the profile data.
.Sp
Generally it's expected that you are preparing a statement handle
as if a \f(CW\*(C`select\*(C'\fR statement happened.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\&\f(CW$data\fR is a reference to the data you are providing, given as an array of arrays.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\&\f(CW$names\fR is a reference an array of column names for the \f(CW$data\fR you are providing.
The number and order should match the number and ordering of the \f(CW$data\fR columns.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\&\f(CW%attr\fR is a hash of other standard \s-1DBI\s0 attributes that you might pass to a prepare statement.
.Sp
Currently only \s-1NAME, TYPE,\s0 and \s-1PRECISION\s0 are supported.
.SH "BUGS"
.IX Header "BUGS"
Using this module to prepare INSERT-like statements is not currently documented.
