README

        
URI/db version 0.23

===================

This library implements a Perl interface for a proposed standard for database

connection URIs. The basic formats are:

* `db:engine://username:[email protected]:8042/over/there/widget.db?type=animal&name=narwhal`

* `db:engine:my_big_fat_database?subject=Topic`

This library also includes an interface to convert database URIs to

[DBI](https://metacpan.org/module/DBI) DSNs. For additional information on the

format, see `README.md`.

**Warning:** This is an alpha release. I will do my best to preserve

functionality going forward, especially as [Sqitch](http://sqitch.org/) uses

this module. However, as the database URI specification moves forward, changes

*may* require backwards-incompatible changes. Caveat Hackor.
