Data-migrator (version 0.6.3.dev2) is a simple data-migration package for python lovers.

---

Data-migrator is a declarative DSL for table driven data transformations, set up as an open and extensive system. Use this to create data transformations for changing databases as a result of changing code, initial loads to datalakes (it contains a Kinesis provider)and more.

Example

Data-migrator assumes data is extracted and loaded with client access.

$ mysql source_db -E 'select id,a,b from table' -B  | python my_filter.py | mysql target_db

It than offers a wide range of primitives with default settings to build complex transformations fast, readable and extendable

from data_migrator import models, transform

class Result(models.Model):
  id   = models.IntField(pos=0) # keep id
  uuid = models.UUIDField()     # generate new uuid4 field
  a    = models.StringField(pos=1, default='NO_NULL', max_length=5, nullable='NULL', replacement=lambda x:x.upper())
  b    = models.StringField(pos=2, name='my_b')

if __name__ == "__main__":
  transform.Transformer(models=[Result]).process()
