package SQL::Translator::Producer::MySQL; =head1 NAME SQL::Translator::Producer::MySQL - MySQL-specific producer for SQL::Translator =head1 SYNOPSIS Use via SQL::Translator: use SQL::Translator; my $t = SQL::Translator->new( parser => '...', producer => 'MySQL', '...' ); $t->translate; =head1 DESCRIPTION This module will produce text output of the schema suitable for MySQL. There are still some issues to be worked out with syntax differences between MySQL versions 3 and 4 ("SET foreign_key_checks," character sets for fields, etc.). =head1 ARGUMENTS This producer takes a single optional producer_arg C, which provides the desired version for the target database. By default MySQL v3 is assumed, and statements pertaining to any features introduced in later versions (e.g. CREATE VIEW) are not produced. Valid version specifiers for C are listed L =head2 Table Types Normally the tables will be created without any explicit table type given and so will use the MySQL default. Any tables involved in foreign key constraints automatically get a table type of InnoDB, unless this is overridden by setting the C extra attribute explicitly on the table. =head2 Extra attributes. The producer recognises the following extra attributes on the Schema objects. =over 4 =item B Set the list of allowed values for Enum fields. =item B, B, B Set the MySQL field options of the same name. =item B, B Use when producing diffs to indicate that the current table/field has been renamed from the old name as given in the attribute value. =item B Set the type of the table e.g. 'InnoDB', 'MyISAM'. This will be automatically set for tables involved in foreign key constraints if it is not already set explicitly. See L<"Table Types">. Please note that the C option is the preferred method of specifying the MySQL storage engine to use, but this method still works for backwards compatibility. =item B, B Set the tables default character set and collation order. =item B, B Set the fields character set and collation order. =back =cut use strict; use warnings; our ( $DEBUG, %used_names ); our $VERSION = '1.64'; $DEBUG = 0 unless defined $DEBUG; # Maximum length for most identifiers is 64, according to: # http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/identifiers.html # http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/identifiers.html my $DEFAULT_MAX_ID_LENGTH = 64; use base qw(SQL::Translator::Producer); use Data::Dumper; use SQL::Translator::Schema::Constants; use SQL::Translator::Generator::DDL::MySQL; use SQL::Translator::Utils qw(debug header_comment truncate_id_uniquely parse_mysql_version batch_alter_table_statements normalize_quote_options ); # # Use only lowercase for the keys (e.g. "long" and not "LONG") # my %translate = ( # # Oracle types # varchar2 => 'varchar', long => 'text', clob => 'longtext', # # Sybase types # int => 'integer', money => 'float', real => 'double', comment => 'text', bit => 'tinyint', # # Access types # 'long integer' => 'integer', 'text' => 'text', 'datetime' => 'datetime', # # PostgreSQL types # bytea => 'BLOB', ); # # Column types that do not support length attribute # my @no_length_attr = qw/ date time timestamp datetime year /; sub preprocess_schema { my ($schema) = @_; # extra->{mysql_table_type} used to be the type.
