Re: [sqlite] Merge two sqlar files

2019-09-06 Thread Keith Medcalf

Be aware however that the resulting sqlar table is incomplete.  It does not 
have a "create unique index sqlar_autoindex_1 on sqlar(name)", and you may not 
be able to create one because there may be duplicate name entries 
notwithstanding that the rows are unique.

To do this properly and include the last "name" duplicate as the unique "name" 
entry you would do for an arbitrary number of sqlar files:

import sqlite3
cn=sqlite3.connect(sys.argv[1], isolation_level=None) # open database and turn 
off the broken magic
cn.execute('''CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS sqlar(
name TEXT PRIMARY KEY,  -- name of the file
mode INT,   -- access permissions
mtime INT,  -- last modification time
sz INT, -- original file size
data BLOB   -- compressed content
  );''')
for infile in sys.argv[2:]:
cn.execute('ATTACH DATABASE ? AS d1', [infile])
cn.execute('''insert into main.sqlar select * from d1.sqlar where true 
  on conflict (name) do 
  update set (mode, mtime, sz, data) = (excluded.mode, 
excluded.mtime, excluded.sz, excluded.data);''')
cn.execute('DETACH d1')
cn.close()

*you need to be using a version of sqlite that understands the insert on 
conflict (upsert) and true/false constants.

where the first param is the name of the database (which may already be an 
sqlar database containing data) to merge into and the rest of the params are 
the sqlar databases to merge from.

OK. I made a mistake. UNION of multiple tables should work.

Hi, I think that there is no way to UNION 3 tables in one command is
it. What is the best way to merge 3 and more sqlar files? Thanks.

Re: [sqlite] Merge two sqlar files

OK. It works. But it seems that `.ar` is not necessary.

import sqlite3
infile1, infile2, outfile = sys.argv[1:]
conn=sqlite3.connect(outfile)
c=conn.cursor()
c.execute('ATTACH DATABASE ? AS d1', [infile1])
c.execute('ATTACH DATABASE ? AS d2', [infile2])
c.execute('CREATE TABLE sqlar AS SELECT * FROM d1.sqlar UNION SELECT *
FROM d2.sqlar')
conn.commit()

Re: [sqlite] Merge two sqlar files

2019-09-06 Thread Keith Medcalf

UNION is for "unioning" the output of two select statements (with duplicate 
rows removed).  It does not matter if the tables are in the same database or 
even on the same planet, as long as they can be accessed on the same 
connection.  Sqlar creates nothing more than a standard sqlite database file 
with a table called sqlar that contains the data.

Enter ".help" for usage hints.
Connected to a transient in-memory database.
Use ".open FILENAME" to reopen on a persistent database.
sqlite> .ar -cf test.db appi.py
sqlite> .ar -cf test1.db bs.py
sqlite> attach 'test.db' as test;
sqlite> attach 'test1.db' as test1;
sqlite> create table sqlar as select * from test.sqlar union select * from 
test1.sqlar;
sqlite> .ar -t
appi.py
bs.py
