Transparent wrapper around DBI for debugging purposes
Posted on 2004-09-08
I have a large code base (which runs under mod_perl) to which I would like to add some debugging code.
I would like to be able to run a bit of code everytime DBI is used to connect, prepare or execute. How can I add this debugging code _without_ editing every call to those methods and _without_ editing the DBI module itself.

DBI can generate debugging information itself:
set
DBI->trace(2 => "/tmp/logfile");
somewhere near the top of your script.
Or set the environment variable
DBI_PROFILE=2
See manuals for DBI::Profile and DBI::Trace.

Also see DBI::ProfileDumper::Apache
Here's the synopsis from the manual:
Add this line to your httpd.conf:
PerlSetEnv DBI_PROFILE DBI::ProfileDumper::Apache
Then restart your server. Access the code you wish to test using a web browser, then shutdown your server. This will create a set of dbi.prof.* files in your Apache log directory. Get a profiling report with dbiprof:
dbiprof /usr/local/apache/logs/dbi
When you're ready to perform another profiling run, delete the old files
rm /usr/local/apache/logs/dbi
and start again.
