This is seriously awesome, thank you !

Most time i try to use this script, it freezes up ..... what can i do ......... ?

Maybe it's because Python 3?
I get:

Upon launching the script, it freezes workbench and takes up much cpu usage.

Windows 10 x64
MySQL Workbench 6.3.8 1228CE (64bits)

.mwb :
dml_freezes_on_export_sqlite.zip

UPDATE it seems it was because some operations weren't legal in SQLite (cannot apply constraint outside table definition). Still it should not freeze.

I both use Workbench 8.0.25 build 788959 on Windows 10 and OpenSuse tumbleweed and when I try to install on the latter, nothing happens. No menu created, nothing on Plugin Manager.

I am new to MySQLWorkbench and I would like to export a Mysql database to SQLite. I have loaded the plugin but the Usage instructions say:

Once you open a database model in MySQL Workbench, you can see "Export SQLite CREATE script" in "Tools > Catalog" menu. Just choose it.

If I connect to the database, I do not see that menu. Where am I going wrong?

ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP is not directly compatible with sqlite.

I found that I could either manually remove these statements. Alternatively, looks like there may be a create a TRIGGER which handles this:

When we export, fields for example:

TEST1 DECIMAL (9,2)
TEST2 DECIMAL (10,4)

We are exported as:

TEST1 DECIMAL
TEST2 DECIMAL

tks

OS: Debian SID
Workbench: v6.2.3.12312

Install this export plugin, go to 'Tools->Catalog->Export SQLite CREATE script'. Then workbench hangs, and takes 100% cpu usage.
