schema conv: Transforming schemas

The schema conv command can be used to convert between different database schemas. To convert from a PostgreSQL CREATE TABLE statement to a BigQuery schema, run:

dbcrossbar schema conv postgres-sql:table.sql bigquery-schema:table.json

As a handy trick, you can also use a CSV source, which will generate a CREATE TABLE where all columns have the type TEXT:

dbcrossbar schema conv csv:data.csv postgres-sql:table.sql

This can then be edited to specify appropriate column types.
