NAME

       MediaWiki::DumpFile::SQL - Process SQL dump files from a MediaWiki instance

SYNOPSIS

         use MediaWiki::DumpFile::SQL;

         $sql = MediaWiki::DumpFile::SQL->new('dumpfile.sql');
         #many compression formats are supported
         $sql = MediaWiki::DumpFile::SQL->new('dumpfile.sql.gz');
         $sql = MediaWiki::DumpFile::SQL->new('dumpfile.sql.bz2');
         $sql = MediaWiki::DumpFile::SQL->new(\*FH);

         @schema = $sql->schema;
         $name = $sql->table_name;

         while(defined($row = $sql->next)) {
               #do something with the data from the row
         }

FUNCTIONS

   new
       This is the constructor for this package. It is called with a single parameter: the
       location of a MediaWiki SQL dump file or a reference to an already open file handle.

       Only the definition and data for the first table in a SQL dump file is processed.

   next
       Returns a hash reference where the key is the column name from the table and the value of
       the hash is the value for that column and row. Returns undef when there is no more data
       available.

   table_name
       Returns a string of the table name that was discovered in the dump file.

   table_statement
       Returns a string of the unparsed CREATE TABLE statement straight from the dump file.

   schema
       Returns a list that represents the table schema as it was parsed by this module. Each item
       in the list is a reference to an array with two elements. The first element is the name of
       the row and the second element is the MySQL datatype associated with the row. The list is
       in an identical order as the definitions in the CREATE TABLE statement.
