Import data from CSV file to Mysql table through php

Question

As explained in the title, I am trying to import data to my table through uploading the csv file to my php page. This is the code I got from EggSlab

 <?php $servername = "localhost"; $username = "root"; $password = ""; $dbname = "Test"; // Create connection $conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname); // Check connection if ($conn->connect_error) { die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error); } ?> <html> <body> <form name="import" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="file" /><br /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /> </form> <?php if(isset($_POST["submit"])) { $file = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name']; $handle = fopen($file, "r"); $c = 0; while(($filesop = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== false) { $name = $filesop[0]; $email = $filesop[1]; $sql = "INSERT INTO `xl` (`Name`, `Email`) VALUES ('$name','$email')"; } if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) { echo "You database has imported successfully"; } else { echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . $conn->error; } } ?> </body> </html>

The problem is that, when submitting the file, only the last row of my file gets inserted to the table. Any suggestion of a modification to make the code insert every row of the csv file ?

Answer 1

This Should fix your problem. You were not executing the query within the loop.

  <?php if(isset($_POST["submit"])) { $file = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name']; $handle = fopen($file, "r"); $c = 0; while(($filesop = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== false) { $name = $filesop[0]; $email = $filesop[1]; $sql = "INSERT INTO `xl` (`Name`, `Email`) VALUES ('$name','$email')"; if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) { echo "You database has imported successfully"; } else { echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . $conn->error; } } } ?>

CSV file import below See Example:

   <?php 
           $file = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];

           //Read the file
            $content = file_get_contents($file);
            //Split file into lines
            $lines = explode("\n", $content);

            //Find columns by reading first line

             for ($i = 1; $i <= 310; $i++) {
                $data = explode("\t", $lines[$i]);
                $name = $filesop[0];
                $email = $filesop[1];

                 $sql = "INSERT INTO `xl` (`Name`, `Email`) VALUES    ('$name','$email')";

        }
    }
