SqliteClient
instead of Factory
#47
There are plans to simplify the API by removing the
Factory
and instead replacing it with a simplerSqliteClient
constructor. In other words, this:Could potentially look like this:
Internally, the
SqliteClient
would work similar to what is currently called a "lazy" client, but we'll probably get rid of this wording altogether. This means it would automatically create the underlying database process only when it's actually needed and will stop this process after a short while when it is not in use anymore. What is currently called "idle" time would probably be reworded to be more of a "keepalive" with much lower defaults.Additionally, we'll probably fire "open" and "close" events as needed (loosely inspired by https://github.com/clue/reactphp-eventsource). Unlike the current version, my idea is to also keep the instance in a usable state even after calling
close()
on it. Reusing the same instance at a later time makes a lot more sense in long-running applications instead of locking it in an unusable state.This is obviously a BC break, but there are no plans to break any of the existing code besides this. Most consumers should be able to upgrade to the new instantiation without issues, actual query APIs etc. would not be affected.
Obviously the biggest hindrance: I'm not entirely sure about the casing of the namespace and class name (SQLite vs. Sqlite).
