从 phpMyAdmin 导出非常大的表？

Question

By very large tables, I mean tables with 5 million to 20 million records or even larger. I need to export them into MS Excel in multiple files, each of which will be 60,000 records.

It would be a manual chore to export them one by one, you know by entering Dump xxxx row(s) starting at record # xxxx and hitting Go a couple hundred times. Very annoying.

Is there any way to automate this process?

What I have tried thus far:

1. Add " print_r($_POST);exit(); " at the top of phpmyadmin/export.php to see what variables have been passed when I'm exporting the table into Excel. Remove them and then use cURL to post the same variables to phpmyadmin/export.php from my own php script. This way, I can make it automated in saving the exported data and increasing starting record #. However, phpmyadmin/export.php keeps giving me this error when I'm posting all the vars to it:

   export.php: Missing parameter: what (FAQ 2.8)

   export.php: Missing parameter: export_type (FAQ 2.8)

Which is weird because I'm 100% sure that 'what' and 'export_type' are in the posted variables. Tried everything in (FAQ 2.8) but nothing worked neither.

2. Firefox iMacros add-on. Gave it a try but it doesn't seem to be able to automatically increase an form input value by a certain amount. Or does it?

Any idea how I can achieve this? There ain't any native support in exporting mysql into excel right?

Update: My client wants it. Not me. He's just obsessed with Excel and does everything with it.

Answer 2

That size?!
You do not use a web-server to do that (time-limit is just one of the cones of that), you need a command-line/exe/desktop application to handle such sizes.
In php it wouldn't be too hard to write such a thing using the php-cli, and it should be done that way.
Bottom line: no web tool should do that.

使用MySQL命令行工具导出为CSV，然后使用GNU split每65k行左右分割一次。

SELECT fields INTO OUTFILE 'export.csv' FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' ESCAPED BY '\' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' FROM tablename;

Answer 4

Execute below mysql query:

SELECT 
    name,mobile,email,address
FROM
    customer
WHERE
  status = 'Active' 
INTO OUTFILE 'C:/tmp/active_customers.csv' 
FIELDS ENCLOSED BY '"' 
TERMINATED BY ';' 
ESCAPED BY '"' 
LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n';
