Hi,
Yes sorry, here's the tables:
[cur_t DB] [student_profile table]
Column | Type | Collation | Nullable
| Default |
----------------------+------------------------+-----------+----------+-----------------------+
studentnumber | character varying(45) | | not null |
''::character varying |
firstname | character varying(60) | |
| |
middlename | character varying(60) | |
| |
lastname | character varying(60) | |
| |
course | character varying(150) | | not null |
''::character varying |
[cur_p DB] [profile table]
Column | Type | Collation | Nullable
| Default |
----------------------+------------------------+-----------+----------+-----------------------+
studentnumber | character varying(45) | | not null |
''::character varying |
firstname | character varying(60) | |
| |
middlename | character varying(60) | |
| |
lastname | character varying(60) | |
| |
program_id | integer | | not null
| |
department_id | integer | | not null
| |
campus_id | integer | | not null
| |
So I am migrating the data from one database to another. Here, I am moving
data of student from student_profile table to profile table.
I have already migrated the course data to another table. What I would like
to do is get the value of program_id and department_id for the profile
table. I want to check if the course exist in profile_program table, then
get it's ID. I think I can use the same logic for getting and setting value
for the department_id column of profile table. I am using psycopg2 to
access and move the data.
for row in cur_t:
course = row['course']
# Here I would like to get the value of program_id and
department_id and insert it to the said columns but I don't know how to do
it yet
# I put ?? in department_id coz I don't know how to access the 3
department IDs in this query.
cur_p.execute(""" SELECT id from st_profile where
name='$[course]' and department_id=?? """)
x = cur_p.fetchall()
# This will print an error since I added department_id without
value yet but if I remove it, I will get "None"
print x
Sorry for asking questions a lot, we don't have DBA at the moment.
Thanks,
J
