Conversion Flow Logic

Start
 │
 ├─▶ [Step 0] test_only mode?
 │     ├─ Yes → Test MySQL & PostgreSQL connections → Show versions → Exit
 │     └─ No  → Continue
 │
 ├─▶ [Step 1] Read MySQL table definitions
 │     ├─ If exclude_use_table_list=true → Filter out tables in exclude_table_list at database level
 │     └─ If use_table_list=true → Only fetch tables in table_list
 │
 ├─▶ [Step 2] Convert table structures (tableddl: true)
 │     ├─ Intelligent field type mapping (e.g., tinyint(1) → BOOLEAN)
 │     ├─ lowercase_columns/lowercase_tables controls field/table name casing
 │     └─ Create tables in PostgreSQL (skip_existing_tables controls skipping)
 │
 ├─▶ [Step 3] Convert views (views: true)
 │     ├─ If exclude_use_view_list=true → Filter out views in exclude_view_list
 │     └─ Convert MySQL view definitions to PostgreSQL compatible syntax
 │
 ├─▶ [Step 4] Sync data (data: true)
 │     ├─ If truncate_before_sync=true → Truncate target tables
 │     ├─ Batch read MySQL data (max_rows_per_batch)
 │     ├─ Batch insert into PostgreSQL (batch_insert_size)
 │     ├─ Concurrency controlled by concurrency parameter
 │     └─ Automatically disable foreign key constraints and indexes for performance
 │
 ├─▶ [Step 5] Convert indexes (indexes: true)
 │     ├─ Primary keys, unique indexes, normal indexes, full-text indexes → Auto rebuild
 │     └─ Batch processing (max_indexes_per_batch=20)
 │
 ├─▶ [Step 6] Convert functions (functions: true)
 │     ├─ If exclude_use_function_list=true → Filter out functions in exclude_function_list
 │     └─ Support 50+ function mappings (e.g., NOW() → CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, IFNULL() → COALESCE())
 │
 ├─▶ [Step 7] Convert users (users: true)
 │     └─ MySQL Users → PostgreSQL Roles (preserve password hashes)
 │
 ├─▶ [Step 8] Convert table privileges (table_privileges: true)
 │     └─ GRANT SELECT ON table → GRANT USAGE, SELECT ON table
 │
 └─▶ [Final Step] Data validation & Completion (validate_data: true)
       ├─ Query row counts for MySQL and PostgreSQL tables
       ├─ Re-enable previously disabled foreign key constraints and indexes
       ├─ If truncate_before_sync=false → Log inconsistent tables, continue execution
       ├─ Output conversion statistics report and performance metrics
       └─ Generate inconsistent table list (if any)

Important Function Details

test_only Mode

Description: Only tests database connections without performing any conversion operations. Connection test response time is <1 second.
Configuration:
- mysql.test_only: true - Only test MySQL connection, do not convert.
- postgresql.test_only: true - Only test PostgreSQL connection, do not convert.
- When both are set to true, the tool tests both connections without converting.
Use Case: Quickly verify if database connection configurations are correct without running the full conversion flow.

Data Validation

Description: Verifies data consistency between MySQL and PostgreSQL after data synchronization to ensure migration integrity.
Configuration: validate_data: true - Enable data validation function.
Method: Compares the row counts of two tables.
Logic: If data validation fails, the tool decides whether to interrupt execution based on the truncate_before_sync setting.
Use Case: Ensuring migration integrity, especially during critical data migrations in production environments.

truncate_before_sync Option

Description: Controls whether to truncate PostgreSQL table data before synchronization, offering flexible sync strategies.
Configuration:
- truncate_before_sync: true - Truncate table data before sync.
- truncate_before_sync: false - Do not truncate table data before sync.
Logic:
- When truncate_before_sync: true:
  - Truncates PostgreSQL table data before sync.
  - If data validation fails (row counts differ), the tool interrupts execution and returns an error.
- When truncate_before_sync: false:
  - Does not truncate table data; new data is appended.
  - If data validation fails (row counts differ), the tool continues execution but logs "Data validation inconsistent".
  - Finally, it displays statistics of inconsistent tables after conversion completes.

MySQL Connection Configuration

Description: Allows users to customize MySQL connection parameters to meet specific needs.
Configuration: connection_params: charset=utf8mb4&parseTime=false&interpolateParams=true
Supported Parameters:
- charset=utf8mb4 - Use UTF8MB4 charset, supports emojis.
- parseTime=false - Disable automatic time type parsing.
- interpolateParams=true - Enable parameter interpolation for better security.
Notes:
- Format is key=value&key=value.
- Do not add a leading question mark.
- Does not support the compress parameter (not implemented by MySQL driver).

PostgreSQL Connection Configuration

Description: Allows users to customize PostgreSQL connection parameters to meet specific needs.
Configuration: pg_connection_params: search_path=public connect_timeout=10
Supported Parameters:
- connect_timeout=10 - Connection timeout (seconds).
- search_path=public - Default schema to use.
Notes:
- Format is key=value&key=value.
- Do not add a leading question mark.
- Supports all connection parameters of the PostgreSQL driver.

Table Filtering

Description: Provides two table filtering modes to flexibly control which tables to sync.
Whitelist Mode (use_table_list):
- conversion.options.use_table_list: true - Only sync tables in table_list.
- conversion.options.table_list: [table1, table2] - List of tables to sync.
Blacklist Mode (exclude_use_table_list):
- conversion.options.exclude_use_table_list: true - Enable blacklist mode, skip tables in exclude_table_list.
- conversion.options.exclude_table_list: [table3, table4] - List of tables to skip.
Notes:
- Whitelist and blacklist modes cannot be used simultaneously.
- If both are set, whitelist mode takes precedence.
- Table names are case-sensitive; ensure they match the actual database table names.

View and Function Exclusion

Description: Provides exclusion lists for views and functions to flexibly control which views and functions to sync.
View Exclusion (exclude_use_view_list):
- conversion.options.exclude_use_view_list: true - Enable view exclusion mode, skip views in exclude_view_list.
- conversion.options.exclude_view_list: [view1, view2] - List of views to skip.
Function Exclusion (exclude_use_function_list):
- conversion.options.exclude_use_function_list: true - Enable function exclusion mode, skip functions in exclude_function_list.
- conversion.options.exclude_function_list: [func1, func2] - List of functions to skip.
Notes:
- View and function names are case-insensitive (automatically converted to lowercase for matching).
- Configuration uses simple inline array syntax: [item1, item2].
- Skipped objects are logged and counted in progress statistics.
- Useful for skipping complex/temporary views or functions that don't need migration.

Example Configuration:

conversion:
  options:
    view: true
    functions: true
    
    # Skip specific views (e.g., complex reporting views)
    exclude_use_view_list: true
    exclude_view_list: [v_complex_report, v_temp_stats, v_old_dashboard]
    
    # Skip specific functions (e.g., deprecated or MySQL-only functions)
    exclude_use_function_list: true
    exclude_function_list: [func_calc_commission, func_get_user_level, func_deprecated]

Use Cases:

Complex Views: Skip views with complex JOINs or MySQL-specific functions that don't translate well to PostgreSQL.
Temporary Views: Skip temporary or development-only views that aren't needed in production.
Deprecated Functions: Skip old functions that are no longer used or have PostgreSQL-native alternatives.
MySQL-Specific Functions: Skip functions that rely on MySQL-specific behavior not supported in PostgreSQL.

Connection Pool Optimization

Description: Adjust connection pool parameters to improve efficiency.
MySQL Pool:
- max_open_conns: 100 - Max connections increased from 50 to 100.
- max_idle_conns: 50 - Max idle connections increased from 20 to 50.
PostgreSQL Pool:
- max_conns: 50 - Max connections increased from 20 to 50.
Effect: Improves concurrent processing capability, reduces overhead of creating and destroying connections.

Inconsistent Table Statistics

Description: Collects and displays information on all inconsistent tables when data validation fails.
Display: Shows table name, MySQL row count, and PostgreSQL row count in a table format.
Logic: Only when truncate_before_sync: false, data inconsistency does not interrupt execution but continues and displays statistics at the end.
Use Case: In sync scenarios, to understand which tables have inconsistent data volumes for subsequent handling.

8. Table Data Synchronization Case

On a 2-core, 2GB environment with limits.concurrency=4 and limits.batch_insert_size=10000, the synchronization speed is approximately 1691 rows per second.

If your server has higher configuration, you can appropriately adjust the above parameters.

-- Table DDL
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS case_01_integers;
CREATE TABLE case_01_integers (
  col_tiny tinyint, 
  col_small smallint,
  col_medium mediumint,
  col_int int,
  col_integer integer,
  col_big bigint,
  col_int_prec int(11),
  col_big_prec bigint(20)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4;
CREATE INDEX idx_case_01_col_tiny ON case_01_integers(col_tiny);


-- Synchronization Speed
Progress: 0.00% (1/1) : Table case_01_integers synchronization completed, 12000000 rows of data, skipping validation

FAQ

1. What if data validation fails?

Check truncate_before_sync setting.
If true, check if other processes are writing to PostgreSQL.
If false, the tool continues but records inconsistent tables.

2. How to improve conversion speed?

Increase concurrency.
Increase max_rows_per_batch and batch_insert_size.
Ensure stable and sufficient network bandwidth.

3. What if connection errors occur?

Check database connection config.
Ensure MySQL and PostgreSQL services are running.
Check network stability.

4. How to test connection only?

Set mysql.test_only: true or postgresql.test_only: true.

5. Primary Key Conflicts

When primary key conflicts occur, an error is reported. Choose to skip or truncate table data based on the situation.

Error: Failed to insert table users_20251201: Batch insert failed: ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "users_20251201_pkey" (SQLSTATE 23505)

6. How to Run Integration Tests?

The project includes a comprehensive integration test suite:

# Run all 84 integration tests
bash scripts/integrationtests/run_integration_tests.sh

# Tests cover:
# - Connectivity tests (MySQL, PostgreSQL)
# - DDL conversion (table structures, types, constraints)
# - Data synchronization (batch insert, pagination, validation)
# - View, index, function, user, privilege conversion
# - Limit configurations (concurrency, batch sizes, bandwidth)
# - Run options (logging, progress, console output)
# - Boundary scenarios (connection failures, missing tables)

7. How to Insert Test Data?

The project provides test data for all 167 tables:

# Create tables first
mysql -u root -p test_db < scripts/mysql/create_table.sql

# Then insert test data (10 rows per table)
mysql -u root -p test_db < scripts/mysql/insert_data.sql
