Here's an idea for a much simpler interface. Essentially it lets you say "take table X and migrate its contents to a new table with this structure - then atomically rename the tables to switch them": ```python db["mytable"].migrate_table({"id": int, "name": str"}, pk="id") ``` The `migrate_table()` method would take the same exact signature as the `table.create()` method: https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/blob/a236a6bc771a5a6a9d7e814f1986d461afc422d2/sqlite_utils/db.py#L615-L625 | {"total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} | 621989740 |
