In Dancer2::Cookbook I read that there is a module Dancer2::Plugin::Database which can be used to access a database. I clicked on that link but I've seen that there is not such a module.
At this stage, many modules still need to be ported to the Dancer2 package.
Is there a better way of accessing a database directly than by using this module? (without using an ORM)
For the moment, I'd suggest that you'd be fine using DBI directly, until Dancer2::Plugin::Database comes out. As I understand it, bigpresh is currently tied up with other things, but ports of a number of plugins that he maintains will be coming soon. If you're willing to put in the legwork, the source for D:P:Database is readily available (https://github.com/bigpresh/Dancer-Plugin-Database) -- a port into the Dancer2 package shouldn't be too painful.
