If you can use DBeaver to export the table structure to a JSON file, you can then use that JSON file to construct the `CREATE TABLE` SQL statement. Here's how you can achieve this:

### Steps to Export Table Structure to JSON using DBeaver
102-
103-
1. **Open DBeaver**: Connect to your IBM Db2 database.
104-
2. **Navigate to the Table**: Find the table whose structure you want to export.
105-
3. **Export as JSON**: Right-click on the table and select the option to export the table structure as JSON. Save the JSON file to your local machine.

### Python Script to Construct `CREATE TABLE` SQL from JSON
108-
109-
Once you have the JSON file, you can use the following Python script to read the JSON file and construct the `CREATE TABLE` SQL statement:
110-
111-
```python
112-
import json
113-
114-
def generate_create_table_sql_from_json(json_file_path):
115-
# Load the JSON file
116-
with open(json_file_path, 'r') as file:
117-
table_data = json.load(file)
118-
119-
# Extract table and schema name
120-
schema_name = table_data.get('schema')
121-
table_name = table_data.get('name')
122-
123-
# Start constructing the CREATE TABLE statement
124-
create_table_sql = f"CREATE TABLE {schema_name}.{table_name} (\n"
125-
126-
# Iterate over columns to construct the column definitions
127-
for column in table_data.get('columns', []):
128-
colname = column.get('name')
129-
typename = column.get('type')
130-
length = column.get('length')
131-
scale = column.get('scale')
132-
nulls = 'NOT NULL' if column.get('nullable') == False else 'NULL'
133-
default = f"DEFAULT {column.get('default')}" if column.get('default') else ''
134-
identity = 'GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY' if column.get('identity') == True else ''
135-
136-
# Construct the column definition
137-
col_def = f" {colname} {typename}"
138-
if length:
139-
col_def += f"({length}"
140-
if scale:
141-
col_def += f", {scale}"
142-
col_def += ")"
143-
col_def += f" {nulls}"
144-
if default:
145-
col_def += f" {default}"
146-
if identity:
147-
col_def += f" {identity}"
148-
149-
create_table_sql += col_def + ",\n"
150-
151-
# Remove the last comma and add the closing parenthesis
152-
create_table_sql = create_table_sql.rstrip(",\n") + "\n);"
153-
154-
return create_table_sql
155-
156-
# Example usage
157-
if __name__ == "__main__":
158-
json_file_path = 'path_to_your_json_file.json'
159-
create_table_sql = generate_create_table_sql_from_json(json_file_path)
160-
print(create_table_sql)
161-
```

### Instructions
164-
165-
1. **Export JSON**: Use DBeaver to export the table structure to a JSON file.
166-
2. **Update File Path**: In the script, update the `json_file_path` variable with the path to your exported JSON file.
167-
3. **Run the Script**: Execute the script to generate the `CREATE TABLE` SQL statement.
168-
169-
### Additional Considerations
170-
171-
- **JSON Structure**: Ensure the JSON file contains the necessary details such as column names, data types, lengths, scales, nullability, defaults, and identity settings.
172-
- **Constraints and Indexes**: If the JSON file includes information about constraints and indexes, you can extend the script to include them in the `CREATE TABLE` statement.
