This software can easily read and convert a database table into a hash, with just a few clicks. It simplifies the process and saves time for the user.
The module's syntax is quite simple and easy to understand. With just a few lines of code, you can create a look-up table by specifying the necessary parameters such as the database handle, table name, key column, and value column.
The select() and select_hashref() functions can be used to create a hash without nesting the values, while the select_tree() function returns a nested hash. By incorporating the child and parent columns, select_tree() can also exclude specific columns from the hash using the skip_columns parameter.
One of the unique features of DBIx::Table2Hash is that it allows the key_column to point to an SQL expression, providing greater flexibility in data retrieval.
Overall, this module is an excellent tool for anyone looking to store database table values in a hash. Its ease of use, flexibility, and powerful features make it an excellent choice for developers of any skill level.
