将MySQL的sql文件转换为SQLite3兼容的数据库文件

mysql2sqlite

Converts MySQL dump to SQLite3 compatible dump (including MySQL KEY xxxxx statements from the CREATE block).

Usage

1. Dump MySQL DB

   mysqldump --skip-extended-insert --compact [options]... DB_name > dump_mysql.sql
   # or
   #mysqldump --no-data -u root -pmyPassword [options]... DB_name > dump_mysql.sql
   

2. Convert the dump to SQLite3 DB

   ./mysql2sqlite dump_mysql.sql | sqlite3 mysqlite3.db
   

(both mysql2sqlite and sqlite3 might write something to stdout and stderr - e.g. memory coming from PRAGMA journal_mode = MEMORY; is not harmful)

Development

The script is written in awk (tested with gawk, but should work with original awk, and the lightning fast mawk) and shall be fully POSIX compliant.

It's originally based on the newest fork (https://gist.github.com/bign8/9055981/05e65fd90c469c5eaa730823910c0c5f9de40ab4) of the original mysql2sqlite.sh (https://gist.github.com/esperlu/943776/be469f0a0ab8962350f3c5ebe8459218b915f817) with the following patches:

• fix the non-standard COMMENT field statement removal
• ignore CREATE DATABASE statements (USE statements were already ignored)
• add support for multiple-record INSERT INTO VALUES
• revise support for lower-case SQL statements
• fix AUTO_INCREMENT handling
• trim hexadecimal values longer than 16 characters and issue a warning about it
• add identifier case sensitivity warning in case IF NOT EXISTS or TEMPORARY has been detected (on unix sqlite3 treats temporary table name FILES the same as files; in other words, sqlite3 doesn't issue any warning about cross-collisions between TABLE and TEMPORARY TABLE identifiers)
• replace COLLATE xxx_xxxx_xx statements with COLLATE BINARY (https://gist.github.com/4levels/0d5da65bf9d70479fbe3/d0ac3d295dc5e2f72411ad06c07a22931368a1b7)
• handle CONSTRAINT FOREIGN KEY (https://gist.github.com/BastienDurel/7f413d13d7b858aef31c/922be110d011b9da340ae545372214b597ad7b84)

History

• @esperlu created initial version in 2011 as gist on GitHub
• many different contributors forked the gist and made wildly varying changes, because @esperlu stopped working on it and didn't respond
• @dumblob took over in Aug 2015 and applied the most important patches from all the forks as well as many his own patches tested on Drupal DB
• @dumblob added the MIT license under assumption, that the original gist was released into public domain, because despite significant changes, it wasn't clean room engineering.
• 2016-05-11 17:32 UTC+2 @esperlu declared MIT as a fitting license (also retrospectively) and the original gist as deprecated.
