DBIx::Simple provides a simplified interface to DBI, Perl’s powerful de-facto standard database interface. This module is aimed at rapid development and easy maintenance of your codebase. A single method prepares and executes your queries, and the result object (which wraps the statement handle) provides easy row-by-row iteration and slurping methods.

The query method returns either a result object, or a dummy object. The dummy object returns undef (or an empty list) for all methods and when evaluated in boolean context, is false. The dummy object lets you postpone (or skip) error checking, but it also makes immediate error checking simple.
