31 =head1 NAME
33 C4::ItemType - objects from the itemtypes table
35 =head1 SYNOPSIS
37 use C4::ItemType;
38 my @itemtypes = C4::ItemType->all;
39 print join("\n", map { $_->description } @itemtypes), "\n";
41 =head1 DESCRIPTION
43 Objects of this class represent a row in the C<itemtypes> table.
45 Currently, the bare minimum for using this as a read-only data source has
46 been implemented. The API was designed to make it easy to transition to
47 an ORM later on.

51 =head2 Class Methods
53 =cut
55 =head3 C4::ItemType->new(\%opts)
57 Given a hashref, a new (in-memory) C4::ItemType object will be instantiated.
58 The database is not touched.
60 =cut
62 sub new {
63 my ($class, $opts) = @_;
64 bless $opts => $class;
70 =head3 C4::ItemType->all
72 This returns all the itemtypes as objects. By default they're ordered by
73 C<description>.
75 =cut
77 sub all {
78 my ($class) = @_;
79 my $dbh = C4::Context->dbh;
81 my @itypes;
82 for ( @{$dbh->selectall_arrayref(
83 "SELECT * FROM itemtypes ORDER BY description", { Slice => {} })} )
85 push @itypes, $class->new($_);
87 return @itypes;
93 =head3 C4::ItemType->get
95 Return the itemtype indicated by the itemtype given as argument, as
96 an object.
98 =cut
100 sub get {
101 my ($class, $itemtype) = @_;
103 return unless defined $itemtype;

108 "SELECT * FROM itemtypes WHERE itemtype = ?", undef, $itemtype
110 return $class->new($data);
116 =head2 Object Methods
118 These are read-only accessors for attributes of a C4::ItemType object.
