Question

I dump my SQLite database like this:

sqlite3 database.sqlite .dump

And this is the relevant part of the dump:

CREATE TABLE auth_user(
    id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
    org_id INTEGER,
    email CHAR(512) UNIQUE,
    user_doc_id CHAR(128),
    password CHAR(512),
    registration_key CHAR(512),
    reset_password_key CHAR(512),
    registration_id CHAR(512)
);

And I have to import this to postgres. Postgres does not accept AUTOINCREMENT, but I need a similar functionality. I want to automatically process the SQLite dump in order to import it to postgres. I have read about NEXTVAL and CREATE_SEQUENCE, but I can not automate the conversion using that easily

Is there a simple way of sedding the sqlite dump to feed it to postgres?

Answer 1

Replace INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT with SERIAL PRIMARY KEY.
Ensure to catch all ways to write it (lowercase, whitespace etc.).
