Have a look at http://instantdb.enhydra.org/community/library/index.html.
DBtool might be what you need.

Alternatively, you could try CSV files. I don't know a lot about mysql, but
I'm guessing that it will be able to read comma separated values from files.
You'd have to the table CREATEs manually using a script, and then use
mysql's equivalent of IMPORT to read the csv files. See

http://instantdb.enhydra.org/software/documentation/import.html

for details.

Subject: InstantDB: Export SQL doesn't generate any SQL


I need to export an InstantDB database into a format that mySQL can read
(we're using instantdb on the client side and mysql). Something like
mysqldump would be ideal - it can generate a set of CREATE and INSERT
statements. RMI-JDBC is not an option - it must be a single file that can be
uploaded. I thought that SET EXPORT "filename.txt" SQL might work, but I
don't get any SQL out of that, I just get this:

0·All·0.0·999999.0
1·< £1·0.0·0.99
2·£1 to £3·1.0·2.99
...

I even set the exportSQL property to 1 in the database properties file.
Looks like a bug.

Shouldn't be too hard to workaround for now, of course.
