Migrate Mysql db to Postgresql (by rules)

Migrate your current MySQL databases into Postgres in a single command.

This tool provides you the chance of migrate your local MySQL databases to Postgres and even modify your current database structure, names and achieve a better consistence defining new foreign keys and cleaning up the data using _PRE_SQL queries.

How to use it

Mode1: Migrate a single database

$ python main.py {db_name}

Mode2: Migrate few tables from a single database

$ python main.py {db_name} [{table_name1} {table_name2} ..]

Mode3: Migrate your whole MySQL schema

$ python main.py all-databases

(it is recommended to use prefix from parameters.json, read more above)

Documentation

OS Dependences

Install pip

sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev build-essential python-psycopg2 python-mysqldb libpq-dev libmysqlclient-dev

Environment dependences

Install python libraries and vendors

sudo bash ./bin/install_requirements.sh

Set it up for yourself

Step1: Set up db config

Set up your database configuration on ./config/parameters.json

  • mysql: Mysql connection values
  • psql: Postgres connection values
  • threads: In case of 'all-databases', you can define the number of threads to run in parallel (Max. number of CPUs). Non parallel 0
  • prefix: In case of 'all-databases', it filters every database which prefix is the defined here. Otherwise use false
  • v1_schema_name: If you want to migrate old schema onto a separated postgres schema, its name is defined here. Otherwise use false

Step2: Version schema names

Set up your schema names for version1 and version2 on "./config/parameters.json"

Step3: Define model rules you want to modified

  • Open ./rules/schema_changes.json
  • Define your own schema rules on it. These rules are going to be used to redefine the new db structure, in case of not including any rules to a table or column, they will be migrated as it is in Mysql

Step4: Define Postgresql conversion rules from Mysql ones

  • Open ./rules/mysql_to_psql.json
  • Define MySQL keys to Postgres, most of rules were already defined by default, but there might be some more missing

Step5: Define data convertion

  • Open ./rules/mysql_raw_dump.json
  • Define data conversion according to its type, YOU might prefer to define different data conversion depending of your own model. Functions for conversion are defined in dumperAuxFuncs.py, feel free to add your own customized ones.

========================

Outputs

These are the files generated during the migration process:

  • mysql_schema.json: Original Mysql schema exported in Json format

  • mysql_schema_v2.json: Mysql schema after model rules where applied

  • mysql_data.sql: INSERT INTO statement in mysql

  • psql_schema.json: Postgres schema

  • psql_tables.sql: CREATE TABLE statements, generated from psql_schema.

  • psql_data.sql: INSERT INTO statements, generated from psql_schema. Raw data will be allocated under ./table folder

Manual migration

Mode1: Manually

Create tables

psql -h server -d database_name -U username < ./output/{databaase}/psql_tables.sql

Insert data

psql -h server -d database_name -U username < ./output/{databaase}/psql_data.sql

Insert indexes and fks

psql -h server -d database_name -U username < ./output/{databaase}/psql_index_fk.sql

Create views ( Just in case you want to keep views with previous squema)

psql -h server -d database_name -U username < ./output/{databaase}/psql_views.sql

Mode2: Single command

$ bash ./bin/migrate.sh [-p {port}] -U {username} -d {database} -Wf {password}
