#
# Revision 1.21 2001/08/25 18:55:28 fonin
# Incorporated changes from Yunliang Yu <yu@math.duke.edu>:
# - By default table & column names are not quoted; use the new
# "-d" option if you want to,
# - Use conditional substitutions to speed up and preserve
# the data integrity.
# Fixes by Max:
# - timestamps conversion fix. Shouldn't break now matching binary data and
# strings.
#
# Revision 1.21 2001/07/23 03:04:39 yu
# Updates & fixes by Yunliang Yu <yu@math.duke.edu>
# . By default table & column names are not quoted; use the new
# "-d" option if you want to,
# . Use conditional substitutions to speed up and preserve
# the data integrity.
#
# Revision 1.20 2001/07/05 12:45:05 fonin
# Timestamp conversion enhancement from Joakim Lemstr<74>m <jocke@bytewize.com>
#
# Revision 1.19 2001/05/07 19:36:38 fonin
# Fixed a bug in quoting PRIMARY KEYs, KEYs and UNIQUE indexes with more than 2 columns. Thanks to Jeff Waugh <jaw@ic.net>.
#
# Revision 1.18 2001/03/06 22:25:40 fonin
# Documentation up2dating.
#
# Revision 1.17 2001/03/04 13:01:50 fonin
# Fixes to make work it right with MySQL 3.23 dumps. Tested on mysqldump 8.11.
# Also, AUTO_INCREMENT->SERIAL fields no more have DEFAULT and NOT NULL
# definitions.
#
# Revision 1.16 2001/02/02 08:15:34 fonin
# Sequences should be created BEFORE creating any objects \nthat depends on it.
#
# Revision 1.15 2001/01/30 10:13:36 fonin
# Re-released under BSD-like license.
#
# Revision 1.14 2000/12/18 20:55:13 fonin
# Better -n implementation.
#
# Revision 1.13 2000/12/18 15:26:33 fonin
# Added command-line options. -n forces *CHAR DEFAULT '' NOT NULL to be
# converted to *CHAR NULL.
# AUTO_INCREMENT fields converted not in SERIAL but in
# INT* NOT NULL DEFAULT nextval('seqname').
# Documentation refreshed.
# Dump enclosed in single transaction from now.
#
# Revision 1.12 2000/12/14 20:57:15 fonin
# Doublequotation bug fixed (in CREATE INDEX ON TABLE (field1,field2))
#
# Revision 1.10 2000/11/27 14:18:22 fonin
# Fixed bug - occasionaly was broken CREATE SEQUENCE generation
#
# Revision 1.8 2000/11/24 15:24:16 fonin
# TIMESTAMP fix: MySQL output YYYYMMDDmmhhss to YYYYMMDD mmhhss
#
# Revision 1.7 2000/11/22 23:04:41 fonin
# TIMESTAMP field fix. Better doublequoting. Splitting output dump
# into 2 transactions - create/load/indexing first, sequence setvals then.
# Added POD documentation.

OPTIONS:
h - this help
n - convert *CHAR NOT NULL DEFAULT '' types to *CHAR NULL

}
=head1 NAME
my2pg - MySQL -> PostgreSQL dump conversion utility.
=head1 SYNTAX
mysqldump db | ./my2pg.pl [-n] > pgsqldump.sql
vi libtypes.c
make
psql database < pgsqldump.txt
where
=over 4
=item B<pgsqldump.sql>
- file suitable for loading into PostgreSQL.
=item B<libtypes.c>
- C source for emulated MySQL types (ENUM, SET) generated by B<my2pg>
=back
=head1 OVERVIEW
B<my2pg> utility attempts to convert MySQL database dump to Postgres's one.
B<my2pg> performs such conversions:
=over 4
=item Type conversion.
It tries to find proper Postgres
type for each column.
Unknown types are silently pushing to output dump;
ENUM and SET types implemented via user types
(C source for such types can be found in
B<libtypes.c> file);
=item Identifiers double-quotation.
All column and table
names should be enclosed to double-quotes to prevent
interferension with reserved words;
=item Converting
AUTO_INCREMENT fields to SERIAL. Actually, creating the sequence and
setting default value to nextval('seq'), well, you know :)
=item Converting
KEY(field) to CREATE INDEX i_field on table (field);
=item The same
for UNIQUE keys;
=item Indices
are creating AFTER rows insertion (to speed up the load);
=item Translates '#'
MySQL comments to ANSI SQL '--'
=back
It encloses dump in transaction block to prevent single errors
during data load.
=head1 COMMAND-LINE OPTIONS
My2pg takes the following command-line options:
=over 2
=item -n
Convert *CHAR DEFAULT '' NOT NULL types to *CHAR NULL.
Postgres can't load empty '' strings in NOT NULL fields.
=item -d
Add double quotes around table and column names
=item -h
Show usage banner.
=back
=head1 SIDE EFFECTS
=over 4
=item creates
file B<libtypes.c> in current directory
overwriting existed file without any checks;

=head1 BUGS
This program is still beta. Testers wanted.
Known bugs are:
=over 4
=item Poor doublequotation.
All identifiers such as table and column names should be enclosed in double
quotes. Program can't handle upper-case identifiers,
like DBA. Lower-case identifiers are OK.
=item SET type emulation is not full. LIKE operation on
SETs, raw integer input values should be implemented
=item B<Makefile> generated during output is
platform-dependent and surely works only on
Linux/gcc (FreeBSD/gcc probably works as well - not tested)
=item Generated B<libtypes.c> contain line
#include <postgres.h>
This file may be located not in standard compiler
include path, you need to check it before compiling.
