通过SSH将数据库表分别导出到sql文件

Question

As the question says, I have been trying to export each table of a database in individual .sql files. I know mysqldump -u username -p DBName TableName > Export.sql exports one specific table, but is there any way I can loop it and export all tables in individual files using SSH command?

Answer 1

Find the tables in the database and iterate over it.

mysql -u USERNAME -p -N -D DATABASENAME -e 'show tables';

This will list the tables of a particular database. Do something like this to export all the tables of the database. ( Note: you need to remove the formatting charaters )

for tab in `mysql -u USERNAME -p -N -D DATABASENAME -e 'show tables';` do
    mysqldump -u USERNAME -p DATABASENAME $tab > ${tab}.sql
done
