class DB::Database

Overview

Acts as an entry point for database access. Connections are managed by a pool. The connection pool can be configured from URI parameters:

When querying a database prepared statements are used by default. This can be changed from the prepared_statements URI parameter:

It should be created from DB module. See DB#open.

Refer to QueryMethods and SessionMethods for documentation about querying the database.
