All,
I am new to SQLITE. Here's the challenge:
sqlite> .dump
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
CREATE TABLE people(
id integer,
nm text);
INSERT INTO "people" VALUES(1,'Jack');
INSERT INTO "people" VALUES(2,'Jill');
CREATE TABLE activity(
aid integer,
act text,
foreign key (aid) references people(id)
);
COMMIT;
PRAGMA foreign_keys=On;
sqlite> .import ac.in activity
Error: foreign key mismatch
This is ac.in
1|eat
2|sleep
3|run
1|drink
2|dream
id 3 doesn't exist, the insertion fails. Now, this was easy. what if
ac.inhad millions of rows? I am looking for some way to get a message
like "error
in line 3: foreign key mismatch".
preferably, the import would go on without actually inserting, but report
ALL errors in one pass.
Any ideas?
Thanks
