xDash::Archive::Pg - Base class for Archive

 package Archive;
 use base xDash::Archive::Pg;
 # Set up your own database access parameters 
 sub SetParameters { shift->SUPER::SetDatabaseConnection(
  name => 'xdash', user => '', password => '' ) }

The module is developed in the object orientated way. It can be used as the base class for archiving based on PostgreSQL as persistence. The base class has to implement a fixed set of methods, called by the derived class Archive. Archive is hardcoded in the xDash::Archivist (driver pattern). For more details, how to set up all the needed components, see the introduction to the deployment: Planning and deploying xDash in a sandbox at http://xdash.jabberstudio.org/deployment/perl. By deriving from the class, as the way of passing arguments, you have to implement explicit methods listed below . The synopsis above is an example of the client script generated by the xdscr.

SetDatabaseConnection( name => $database_name, user => $database_user, password => database_password )

Passes the self explanatory parameters to the DBI module, required by xDash::Archivist.

Any suggestions for improvement are welcomed!
