=head1 Description

Manage the set of databases ("targets") you deploy to. Each target may have a
number of properties:

=over

=item C<uri>

The L<database connection URI|URI::db> for the target. Required. Its format is:

  db:engine:[dbname]
  db:engine:[//[user[:password]@][host][:port]/][dbname][?params][#fragment]

Some examples:

=over

=item C<db:sqlite:widgets.db>

=item C<db:pg://dba@example.net/blanket>

=item C<db:mysql://db.example.com/>

=item C<db:firebird://localhost//tmp/test.fdb>

=item C<db:clickhouse://default@localhost/default?Driver=ClickHouse>

=back

Note that, as with any URI or URL, special characters must be
L<URL encoded|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL_encoding>. For example, when
a username contains a reserved character, such as the C<|> in C<ro|michelle>,
it must be percent-encoded as C<%7c>:

  db:pg://ro%7Cmichelle@examle.org/inventory

The rules are even more strict for query parameters, as often used by for
ODBC connections. For example, when using a
L<Snowflake identifier|https://docs.snowflake.com/en/sql-reference/identifiers-syntax#double-quoted-identifiers>
with special characters, such as a warehouse name with a C<.>, such as
C<sqitch.dev>, the identifier must be double-quoted --- and double quote are
reserved characters in URIs, so must be encoded as C<%22>.

  db:snowflake://example/flipr?Driver=Snowflake;warehouse=%22sqitch.dev%22

See L<URL encoding|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL_encoding> for details.
and the L<DB URI Draft|https://github.com/libwww-perl/uri-db> for in-depth
information on database URIs in general.
