Can I use Core Data to access the sqlite database that I've created?
Anything can be done, given infinite design and product-maintenance
resources. Let me re-phrase your question:
Question: Is there any chance that this might be a practical approach?
Answer: No.
If I can't use Core Data to access sqlite, do I need to migrate the
data to be a persistent store, and are there tools to do that?
You said that your databases are in Postgres and MySQL, and then later
sqlite. You will need a library of functions to read these databases,
extracting the records and their field values -- strings, numbers,
etc. I've never used Postgres and MySQL on the Mac, but I have used
the sqlite3 that ships in Mac OS X. You can call sqlite3 library
functions to create, read, and write sqlite databases.
However, sqlite and Core Data are not practically interoperable at any
level lower than the records and their field values.
