    jeffa is an excellent Perl hacker with good advice but do not use Class::DBI (CDBI in dialect); which would be a fine choice if there weren't alternatives but there have been for a decade. If you want an ORM style DB interface/model there are a few preferable including and especially DBIx::Class (DBIC in dialect). It's much faster, better designed, more extensible, and doesn't turn to spaghetti on edge cases.

    sundialsvc4 has barely been able to compose two or three nodes of valid Perl in all his years and 4,000+ posts here. And his advice all but told you that could do your project without writing any code. If you take that kind of guidance at face value, you're going to have a bad time with Perl and in life for that matter. No links, no code, no concrete action to take > /dev/null 2>&1. Please also see Worst Nodes; as of this moment he occupies 4/5 Today, 9/10 Week, 9/10 Month, 10/20 Year.
