What differences between populate and create methods in DBIx::Class?

Could someone explain in which cases I have to use create or populate methods on ResultSet in DBIx::Class? And what differences between each other if everyone is used to insert some data to database?

UPD For example. I have to insert some data to table1. There are create and populate methods for it. So I have to use create if there are any relationships otherwise I have to use populate, aren't there?

Solution

  • Create inserts one row (and possibly associated rows in other tables). Populate inserts multiple rows.
