PostgreSQL → MySQL Converter

Translate Postgres DDL into MySQL-compatible SQL.

Runs in your browser
MySQL-compatible
CREATE TABLE users (
  id BIGINT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
  email TEXT UNIQUE,
  data JSON,
  created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT NOW()
);

INSERT INTO users (email) VALUES ('[email protected]')
;

Manual review notes

  • MySQL TIMESTAMP is UTC; ensure server tz.
  • MySQL has no RETURNING; use SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID().

Veelgestelde vragen

Quick answers.

How are PostgreSQL data types handled?

Data types like `TEXT` and `BOOLEAN` are mapped to their MySQL equivalents, such as `LONGTEXT` or `TINYINT(1)`. Specific Postgres types like `UUID` are converted to compatible string formats.

Does this tool support data migration?

No. This tool is designed specifically for DDL statements (schema definitions) rather than SQL `INSERT` data or binary row migration.

What happens to Postgres sequences?

Postgres `SERIAL` or `BIGSERIAL` columns are converted to the MySQL `AUTO_INCREMENT` attribute on the primary key. Individual sequence objects are generally omitted as MySQL manages incrementing at the table level.

Is my schema sent to a server?

No. The translation logic is executed entirely in your browser. Your database structure remains private and is never transmitted over the network.
