Convert mysql to sqlite
A script to convert mysql to sqlite.
#!/bin/sh
# Converts a mysqldump file into a Sqlite 3 compatible file. It also extracts the MySQL `KEY xxxxx` from the
# CREATE block and create them in separate commands _after_ all the INSERTs.
# Awk is choosen because it's fast and portable. You can use gawk, original awk or even the lightning fast mawk.
# The mysqldump file is traversed only once.
# Usage: $ ./mysql2sqlite mysqldump-opts db-name | sqlite3 database.sqlite
# Example: $ ./mysql2sqlite --no-data -u root -pMySecretPassWord myDbase | sqlite3 database.sqlite
# Thanks to and @artemyk and @gkuenning for their nice tweaks.

Troubleshooting issues
- readline version issue on macos
# error like below: dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/readline/lib/libreadline.6.dylib Referenced from: /usr/local/etc/awk # solution: brew switch readline 6.3.8
- syntax issue between sql
# error below: mysql table column 'COMMENT' causes table not found # solution: remove the comment for table
