Hi Everyone,
Let's assume we have 2 databases db1, db2 with exactly the same
structure.
I need to write a function that imports all the records from db2 to
db2 conserving appropriate structure, references on copied records.
(of course copying records from one table to another is not good
because of auto-incremented ids)
Treatment of duplicates could be configurable, or we can assume for
now that we always create duplicated records (as long as "unique" does
not forbid that).
I could code this to work in particular case of my particular
database.
Then, I thought that maybe it's worth to write a generic function, a
plugin, that works for any given database and a set of records:
def importToDb(db1, db2, list_of_tablenames, ...): # Copies records
from all tables on the list from db2 to relevant tables in db1
...
Probably this function should use mechanisms which are used inside
appadmin?
I'm posting this hoping that maybe someone did something like that
before, or maybe has some clues/ideas how to program that?
Thanks,
Maciek
