如何使用PHP +大数据库将数据从MySQL转换为JSON

Question

I am building on from this code here where how to Convert Data from MySQL to JSON using PHP is shown. I have got this to work for a subset of my database(39,000 rows) but not the whole database(it basically just hangs getting 500 Internal Server Error in the Net tab in firebug and nothing is written in the files). The code basically writes the DB to 2 files to a json file and a js file with var = <json array>

here is a snipet of what works:

//$sql = "select * from table1; //does not work
//$sql = "select * from table1 LIMIT 0,10"; //for test
$sql = "select * from table1 LIMIT 0,39000"; //works 39000ish is the max

Is there any way I can alter my code to handle this bigger DB of 300,000+ rows and counting?

Here is my complete code:

  <?php
    /* Database connection start */
    $servername = "localhost";
    $username = "root";
    $password = "Password1";
    $dbname = "test";

        //open connection to mysql db
        $connection = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password, $dbname) or die("Error " . mysqli_error($connection));

        //fetch table rows from mysql db
        //$sql = "select * from table1; //does not work
        //$sql = "select * from table1 LIMIT 0,10"; //for test
        $sql = "select * from table1 LIMIT 0,39000"; //works 39000ish is the max
        $result = mysqli_query($connection, $sql) or die("Error in Selecting " . mysqli_error($connection));

        //create an array
        $emparray2 = array();
        while($row =mysqli_fetch_assoc($result))
        {
            $emparray2[] = $row;
        }
        echo json_encode($emparray2);

        //close the db connection
        mysqli_close($connection);

        //write to json file
        $fp = fopen('empdata2.json', 'w');
        fwrite($fp, json_encode($emparray2));
        fclose($fp);

        //write to js file with var data = [ <ARRAY>]
        $fp = fopen('data2.js', 'w');
        fwrite($fp, "var data2 =");
        fwrite($fp, json_encode($emparray2, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT));//makes it pretty
        //fwrite($fp, json_encode($emparray2));
        fclose($fp);

    ?>

Edit1

For my reference this is that I have to change.

root@a4b8b0a15197:/# cat /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini | grep -n memory_limit
406:memory_limit = 128M
root@a4b8b0a15197:/#

Answer 1

You can use this function.

<?php
set_time_limit ( 0 ) // no limit execution time.

/* Database connection start */
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "Password1";
$dbname = "test";

And, you have to increase memory limit like THIS
