As I'm beginner to mysql ,I'm asking this question. Please help me.
I had .csv file and i'm loading this file data into mysql table. using the following command
"load data infile 'D:/xampp/htdocs/test/test.csv' into table offers fields terminated by ',' enclosed by '"' lines terminated by '\n' ignore 1 rows; "
It is inserting data into data into table successfully.
Now my question as follows
test.csv file(it has a huge volume of data)is going to update for every 24 hours. So that I want a stored procedure/macro( whatever it may be) to load the updated data into offers table it is going to call for every 24 hours, So that table data is in sync with .csv file.
Steps to remember
I want to truncate the offers table data before insert into table
and load the data using above command
Create a success log status in another log table(optional)
I heared that "load data" not going to work in stored procedure (I don't exactly).please give me any answer/suggesstions.
I am creating a web application to collect some specific data from users. What I want is that the user uploads an excel file containing the data on the web page I created and that excel file stores its data on MySQL database.
Is it possible?How?
It's possible.
I would convert the Excel file to a csv file, or make the user upload a csv file instead. Excel already has this feature build in.
Then in MySQL you can turn the csv file into a tmp table with ease:
LOAD DATA LOW_PRIORITY LOCAL INFILE 'C:\\Users\\Desktop\\nameoffile.csv' REPLACE INTO TABLE `tmp_table` CHARACTER SET latin1 FIELDS TERMINATED BY ';' LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n';
After that you transfer your data from the tmp table into the tables you'd like and finally you delete the temporary table.
I'm a newbie here trying to import some data into my wordpress database (MySQL) and I wonder if any of you SQL experts out there can help?
Database type: MySQL
Table name: wp_loans
I would like to completely replace the data in table wp_loans with the contents of file xyz.csv located on a remote server, for example https://www.mystagingserver.com/xyz.csv
All existing data in the table should be replaced with the contents of the CSV file.
The 1st row of the CSV file is the table headings so can be ignored.
I'd also like to automate the script to run daily at say 01:00 in the morning if possible.
UPDATE
Here is the SQL I'm using to try and replace the table contents:
LOAD DATA INFILE 'https://www.mystagingserver.com/xyz.csv'
REPLACE
INTO TABLE wp_loans
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
ENCLOSED BY '"'
IGNORE 1 LINES
I would recommend a cron job to automate the process, and probably use BCP (bulk copy) to insert the data into a table... But seeing as you are using MySQL, instead of BCP, try load data in file - https://mariadb.com/kb/en/load-data-infile/
I have a very large text file of 6.2 GB. I have loaded this to a table in mysql using
load data local infile 'sample.txt'
into table table1 fields terminated by ','
(It took about 20 mins)But the dump was not successful and the data is not readable and not meaningful. I had a similar file but of smaller size in csv format and could successfully load that into sql table. I am unable to open the large text file, How should I convert the text to csv without opening it? or Can anyone share an idea to successfully load the text file to mysql table
