Importing a large csv file into mysql database

Question

I have a csv file that has 310 columns and approx 4.8 million rows. I have tried

• LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE
• sql import csv (which is basically the same thing)

I was wondering is there a better and faster method to do that.

Answer 1

create a table with CSV engine , the same column to the CSV file, and copy the CSV to mysql data path, I think this is the fastest way. see: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/csv-storage-engine.html

Answer 2

将mysql添加到PATH环境变量中，然后可以使用命令行导入csv文件

mysql  -u <MYSQL_USER>  -p <MYSQL_PASSWORD>  <YOUR_DATABASENAME> < <PATH_TO_YOUR_CSV_FILE>
