use a pg_dump to create a sqlite db
the objective is to use the dump AS IS. other solutions can be used but you need to strip the schemas like public.table_name
from the statements.
pdump2sqlite pg_dump_file.<tar or sql> extracted_db.sqlite
Usage: pgdump2sqlite [OPTIONS] <PGDUMP_FILENAME> <SQLITE_FILENAME>
Arguments:
<PGDUMP_FILENAME> the file of the dump. can be .sql or .tar
<SQLITE_FILENAME>
Options:
-f delete the dst sqlite file if exists
-h, --help Print help
for me, using a 16 MB tar dump with 39 tables and ~500K rows it takes 0.4 seconds. I would say pretty fast
- use the pest parser to get the statements
- create all the tables
- insert the data from the tar or sql file using prepared insert a transaction per table (for speed)
create table
instructioncopy .. from <stdin or path>
- Integer, Text, Boolean, Real dtypes in sqlite
- plain (
.sql
) or tar dump
check the // TODO:
comments
- support
insert into
statement (even tough this is not the default behavior and it takes much more space, don't do it) - parse with pest using a buffer. see pest: Support for streaming input
- get rows for the copy lazily, don't read the whole file but use a generator (like in python) to return each row (I don't know how to do this)
- map
f
andt
values to0
and1
in Bool dtype - support
directory
, compressed tar andcustom
dump type - have test data for the test (I have only locally but can't upload)
inspired by the scala version postgresql-to-sqlite
