abstract class DB::Driver

Overview

Database driver implementors must subclass Driver, register with a driver_name using DB#register_driver and override the factory method #connection_builder.

require "db"

class FakeDriver < DB::Driver
  class FakeConnectionBuilder < DB::ConnectionBuilder
    def initialize(@options : DB::Connection::Options)
    end

    def build : DB::Connection
      FakeConnection.new(@options)
    end
  end

  def connection_builder(uri : URI) : ConnectionBuilder
    params = HTTP::Params.parse(uri.query || "")
    options = connection_options(params)
    # If needed, parse custom options from uri here
    # so they are parsed only once.
    FakeConnectionBuilder.new(options)
  end
end

DB.register_driver "fake", FakeDriver

Access to this fake database will be available with

DB.open "fake://..." do |db|
  # ... use db ...
end

Refer to Connection, Statement and ResultSet for further driver implementation instructions.

Override #connection_options and #pool_options to provide custom defaults or parsing of the connection string URI.

Defined in:

db/driver.cr
