I want to dynamically send data to MySQL database from Google spreadsheet
I am using Google app scripts but this have not managed to accomplish the task
I can manage store records on the variable but unable to pass them and send to the database, below are the scripts I have;
The scripts below only add ,'" + data[i][0] + "' and 1,'" + data[i][] + "' to the database table instead of actual values
Please help me on this
function writeManyRecords() {
//var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.openByUrl("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1e4o3m5F2sWvNFlMk2MN8tHYtX_WYFmFJyOjW0_AHk/edit#gid=648128284");
var data = sheet.getDataRange().getValues();
//var stmt = conn.createStatement();
var conn = Jdbc.getConnection('jdbc:mysql://IP_address:3306/database_name','user','password');
conn.setAutoCommit(false);
var start = new Date();
var stmt = conn.prepareStatement('INSERT INTO _user_granted_authority' + '(_URI, _CREATOR_URI_USER) values (?, ?)');
for (var i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
stmt.setString(1,'" + data[i][0] + "');
stmt.setString(2,'" + data[i][1] + "');
stmt.addBatch();
}
var batch = stmt.executeBatch();
Logger.log(sheet.getDataRange().getValues());
conn.commit();
conn.close();
var end = new Date();
Logger.log('Time elapsed: %sms for %s rows.', end - start, batch.length);
}
}
Try the below where I have modified the setString part to use just the variables:
function writeManyRecords() {
//var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.openByUrl("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1e4o3m5F2sWvNFlMk2MN8tHYtX_WYscFmFJyOjW0_AHk/edit#gid=648128284");
var data = sheet.getDataRange().getValues();
//var stmt = conn.createStatement();
var conn = Jdbc.getConnection('jdbc:mysql://IP_address:3306/database_name','user','password');
conn.setAutoCommit(false);
var start = new Date();
var stmt = conn.prepareStatement('INSERT INTO _user_granted_authority' + '(_URI, _CREATOR_URI_USER) values (?, ?)');
for (var i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
stmt.setString(1, data[i][0]);
stmt.setString(2, data[i][1]);
stmt.addBatch();
}
var batch = stmt.executeBatch();
Logger.log(sheet.getDataRange().getValues());
conn.commit();
conn.close();
var end = new Date();
Logger.log('Time elapsed: %sms for %s rows.', end - start, batch.length);
}

i want to add data from mysql to spreadsheet using google app script.
And the data has been successfully pulled and successfully displayed in the console log, but how do I enter it into the google sheet???
here's the script:
var server = 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx';
var port = 3306;
var dbName = 'xxx';
var username = 'xxx';
var password = 'xxxxx';
var url = 'jdbc:mysql://'+server+':'+port+'/'+dbName;
function readFromTable() {
try {
const conn = Jdbc.getConnection(url, username, password);
const start = new Date();
const stmt = conn.createStatement();
stmt.setMaxRows(1000);
const results = stmt.executeQuery('SELECT * FROM tickets');
const numCols = results.getMetaData().getColumnCount();
while (results.next()) {
let rowString = '';
for (let col = 0; col < numCols; col++) {
rowString += results.getString(col + 1) + '\t';
}
Logger.log(rowString);
**//here should be a script to input data into google sheet**
}
results.close();
stmt.close();
const end = new Date();
Logger.log('Time elapsed: %sms', end - start);
} catch {
// TODO(developer) - Handle exception from the API
Logger.log('Failed with an error %s', err.message);
}
}
Something like this:
function readFromTable() {
const ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
const sh = ss.getActiveSheet();
try {
const conn = Jdbc.getConnection(url, username, password);
const start = new Date();
const stmt = conn.createStatement();
stmt.setMaxRows(1000);
const results = stmt.executeQuery('SELECT * FROM tickets');
const numCols = results.getMetaData().getColumnCount();
let a = [];
while (results.next()) {
let row = [];
for (let col = 0; col < numCols; col++) {
row.push(results.getString(col + 1));
}
a.push(row);
}
sh.getRange(1,1,a.length,a[0].length).setValues(a);
results.close();
stmt.close();
const end = new Date();
Logger.log('Time elapsed: %sms', end - start);
} catch {
// TODO(developer) - Handle exception from the API
Logger.log('Failed with an error %s', err.message);
}
}

My Google Sheets Apps Script has been timing out - it does a simple read from a MySQL DB and loads the data in, it queries one single persisted table which hosts only 150 rows so there is no reason it should be timing out.
My Script looks like this:
var server = 'IP';
var port = PORT;
var dbName = 'DB';
var username = 'UN';
var password = 'PW';
var url = 'jdbc:mysql://'+server+':'+port+'/'+dbName;
function readData() {
var conn = Jdbc.getConnection(url, username, password);
var stmt = conn.createStatement();
var results = stmt.executeQuery('SELECT * FROM db.table');
var metaData=results.getMetaData();
var numCols = metaData.getColumnCount();
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
var sheet = spreadsheet.getSheetByName('SheetName');
sheet.clearContents();
var arr=[];
for (var col = 0; col < numCols; col++) {
arr.push(metaData.getColumnName(col + 1));
}
sheet.appendRow(arr);
while (results.next()) {
arr=[];
for (var col = 0; col < numCols; col++) {
arr.push(results.getString(col + 1));
}
sheet.appendRow(arr);
}
results.close();
stmt.close();
/*sheet.autoResizeColumns(1, numCols+1);*/
}
/*ScriptApp.newTrigger('readData')
.timeBased()
.everyHours(2)
.create();*/
Is there anything that could be done to better handle the import to speed it up, as I said the data is persisted into a table on the DB, the table only has approx 150 rows and 10-15 columns so the data is small and queries instantly from a DB GUI
This provide a bit of a speed up all though a greater of performance is achievable if you can write code on both ends of the stream and access them via ssl.
var server = 'IP';
var port = PORT;
var dbName = 'DB';
var username = 'UN';
var password = 'PW';
var url = 'jdbc:mysql://' + server + ':' + port + '/' + dbName;
function readData() {
var conn = Jdbc.getConnection(url, username, password);
var stmt = conn.createStatement();
var results = stmt.executeQuery('SELECT * FROM db.table');
var metaData = results.getMetaData();
var numCols = metaData.getColumnCount();
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();
var sheet = spreadsheet.getSheetByName('SheetName');
sheet.clearContents();
var arr = [];//this is where you store all of the data
let row = [];
for (var col = 0; col < numCols; col++) {
row.push(metaData.getColumnName(col + 1));
}
arr.push(row);
while (results.next()) {
row = [];
for (var col = 0; col < numCols; col++) {
row.push(results.getString(col + 1));
}
arr.push(row)
}
sheet.getRange(1, 1, arr.length, arr[0].length).setValues(arr);//this is where you save all of your data into the spreadsheet thus saving you all of the individual writes to the rows.
results.close();
stmt.close();
}

The numbers that I import from an sql database on google sheet are interpreted as duration and not as numbers, more specifically as currencies.

Wrong = 29521.00 (format currently imported)
Correct = € 29.521,00

The fact that the values get automatically converted to durations suggests that the data is in a format that makes Google Sheets consider them as duration values. This can happen if you read and write the data as text strings and your spreadsheet is in a locale that uses commas as decimal separators (as in € 1,99) and periods as time separators (as in 12.00). If you are reading the values as text strings, you may need to read them as numbers instead to avoid automatic conversion.
Consider using ResultSet.getFloat() instead of ResultSet.getString().
Once you can write the values correctly to the spreadsheet, you can set the final format programmatically, like this:
SpreadsheetApp.getActive()
.getRange("Sheet1!C2:D")
.setNumberFormat("[$ €]#,##0.00");
If you always write the values to the same sheet, and get the data as numbers from the database, you can most likely manually format columns C:D as Format > Number > Currency just once, and have the format stick through future imports.

Exceeded maximum execution time in Google Apps Script [duplicate]
Closed 2 years ago.
connecting to a sql server database via jdbc from a google sheets doc. This table has some 30k odd records and hit "exceeded maximum execution time" error. Is there a way to improve performance or a work around to the 6 minute execution time.
function myFunction() {
var conn = Jdbc.getConnection("jdbc:sqlserver://dbURL", "username", "password");
var stmt = conn.createStatement();
stmt.setMaxRows(3000);
var start = new Date();
var rs = stmt.executeQuery('SELECT * FROM dbo.myTable');
var doc = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var cell = doc.getRange('a1');
var row = 0;
var data = [];
while (rs.next()) {
var rowData = [];
for (var col = 0; col < rs.getMetaData().getColumnCount(); col++) {
rowData[col] = (rs.getString(col + 1));
}
data[row] = rowData;
row++;
}
rs.close();
stmt.close();
conn.close();
var end = new Date();
Logger.log('Time elapsed: ' + (end.getTime() - start.getTime()));
}
Thank you.
Modified the code to use Continuous Batch Library, even though I don't get Exceeded execution time error looks like its getting into an infinite loop and writing not one records to the sheets.
var FUNCTION_NAME = "test";
var EMAIL_RECIPIENT = "";
function test() {
ContinuousBatchLibrary.startOrResumeContinousExecutionInstance(FUNCTION_NAME)
var conn = Jdbc.getConnection("jdbc:sqlserver://HOST:PORT/DBNAME","user","password");
var stmt = conn.createStatement();
stmt.setMaxRows(100);
var rs = stmt.executeQuery('SELECT * FROM myTable');
var SS;
var Sheet;
var SheetRange;
// OPEN EXISTING SPREADSHEET
SS = SpreadsheetApp.openById(SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getId());
// SET SPREADSHEET ACTIVE
SpreadsheetApp.setActiveSpreadsheet(SS);
Sheet = SpreadsheetApp.setActiveSheet(SS.getSheetByName(SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getSheetName()));
// GET NUMBER OF COLUMNS
var ColCount = rs.getMetaData().getColumnCount();
// SET COLUMN HEADERS
for (var col = 1; col <= ColCount; col++) {
GSheet.getRange(1, col).setValue(rs.getMetaData().getColumnName(col));
}
// SET RANGE TO FIRST ROW AND BOLD
GSheetRange = GSheet.getRange(1,1,1,GSheet.getLastColumn());
GSheetRange.setFontWeight("bold");
var doc = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var cell = doc.getRange('a2');
var row = 0;
var data = [];
var i = ContinuousBatchLibrary.getBatchKey(FUNCTION_NAME) || 0;
for (; i < row.length; i++) {
while (rs.next()) {
var rowData = [];
for (var col = 0; col < rs.getMetaData().getColumnCount(); col++) {
rowData[col] = (rs.getString(col + 1));
}
data[row] = rowData;
row++;
}
if (ContinuousBatchLibrary.isTimeRunningOut(FUNCTION_NAME)) {
ContinuousBatchLibrary.setBatchKey(FUNCTION_NAME, i)
break;
}
}
rs.close();
stmt.close();
conn.close();
if (i === row.length) {
ContinuousBatchLibrary.endContinuousExecutionInstance(FUNCTION_NAME, EMAIL_RECIPIENT, "task complete")
}
}
This answer is probably still the best work around for the 6 min timer.
The cumulative trigger run time limit is one hour a day so if you are getting <10% of the way thru your data before the timeout you will run into that as well.
I want to extract values from a mysql database into a google sheet. Here's what I have so far the script editor:
// Replace the variables in this block with real values.
var address = 'some.rds.amazonaws.com';
var user = 'abc';
var userPwd = '123';
var db = 'db';
var dbUrl = 'jdbc:mysql://' + address + '/' + db;
function readFromTable(member) {
var conn = Jdbc.getConnection(dbUrl, user, userPwd);
var start = new Date();
var stmt = conn.createStatement();
var results = stmt.executeQuery('SELECT fullname FROM member WHERE id_member = 12345; ' );
var numCols = results.getMetaData().getColumnCount();
while (results.next()) {
var rowString = '';
for (var col = 0; col < numCols; col++) {
rowString += results.getString(col + 1) + '\t';
}
Logger.log(rowString)
}
results.close();
stmt.close();
var end = new Date();
Logger.log('Time elapsed: %sms', end - start);
}
If I run it from the script editor the log gives
[15-06-11 14:04:01:870 BST] Bob Brett
[15-06-11 14:04:01:873 BST] Time elapsed: 121.0ms
However, in a sheet if I insert =readFromTable() gives a blank cell and no errors.
What am I missing?
Your method does not return anything. The cell will display the return value of the function, not the log. Add a return statement at the end of the function and try again.
