Ruby/DBI Description
Direct database access layer for Ruby Ruby/DBI develops a database independent interface for accessing databases - similar to Perl's DBI.Ruby/DBI differs in quite a few ways, however. It incorporates many "rubyisms" while maintaining the core DBI interface, and (currently) includes it's own suite of DBD's which are maintained with the application.Ruby/DBI is not an ORM, like ActiveRecord or DataMapper. It is a lightweight, centralized API to database manipulation. An ORM may or may not be what you want for a given situation, due to weight, ease-of-use or other issues. Ruby/DBI's goal is to provide a lightweight and compelling interface that you can use for things where an ORM is too much or too cumbersome.Getting started with Ruby/DBI is very easy if you have a working knowledge of SQL and your target database. What's New in This Release: · Fixes a load path issue (bug #26807) which would appear under certain circumstances.
