in thread Using DBD::CSV with Template::Plugin::DBI

Template::Plugin::DBI is on my list of modules to check out, but I've not yet worked with it. Does it allow you to specify a \%attr in the connect? If so, then this should work:
[% USE DBI( 'dbi:CSV:',undef,undef, { RaiseError => 1 , csv_tables => { users => { file => 'c:/projekte/vdx/daten/users.txt' , eol => "\n" , col_names => ['id','name'] } } } ) -%]
If the module doesn't support setting \%attrs in the connect string, does it allow you to pass a pre-defined $dbh? If it supports neither, that seems pretty lame. That would be an issue which impacts more than DBD::CSV. OTOH in order to support \%attrs in a template probably requires a string eval which is pretty lame also. (Please don't take this as a criticism of the module, it's more of general remark on modules that support DBI connections but don't support setting \%attrs during connection). Hmm, a thought - if the templating plugin uses YAML, it could avoid string eval.
