Suppose that I don't know anything about Ruby, Ruby On Rails or ActiveRecord except for the horror stories that roam the interwebs. How would you explain "single table inheritance", "composed_of" and "various other bells and whistles" in terms that make sense to the outside world?
Basically, if you can tell us what the SQL statements are and possibly even how the object API is, maybe we can find equivalent things in the Perl world.
Possibly, DBIx::Class does lots of what you want, but then again, I've become a friend of raw SQL for anything less trivial than updating a single column or row, because ORM wrappers don't work for me.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
