Converting databases is a nightmare. IMPORT SCHEMA almost makes it easy. Almost. I'm converting a MySQL database to a Postgres database by doing a bunch of CREATE TABLE… AS SELECT * FROM, but the tinyints are coming across as tinyints. Seems like there ought to be an option somewhere to have them behave like Booleans but I can't see it. Also, I would like to be able to execute raw MySQL-style SQL over the fdw connection, but I don't see an option to do that. I'd also like to be able to query from the information schema on the MySQL side, but I don't see how to schema-qualify the scopes. I guess I could separately do IMPORT SCHEMA against the MySQL info schema. This facility is close to making a robust database conversion script a fairly simple thing to write… -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
