I've got a CSV file with 11 columns and I have a MySQL table with 9 columns.
The CSV file looks like:
col1, col2, col3, col4, col5, col6, col7, col8, col9, col10, col11
and the MySQL table looks like:
col1, col2, col3, col4, col5, col6, col7, col8, col9
I need to map the columns 1-8 of CSV file directly to the first 8 columns of the MySQL table. I then need to skip the next two columns in the CSV file and then map column 11 of CSV file to column 9 of MySQL table.
At the moment I am using the following SQL command:
LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'filename.csv' INTO TABLE my_table
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
ENCLOSED BY ''
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
But the above code maps the first 9 columns of CSV file to the 9 columns in the MySQL table.
You can also discard an input value by assigning it to a user variable and not assigning the variable to a table column:
LOAD DATA INFILE 'file.txt'
INTO TABLE t1 (column1, @dummy, column2, @dummy, column3);
step1.deal with awk.
cat file.txt |awk '{print $1,$2,$5...}'>new_file.txt
step2.load into mysql.
load data local infile 'new_file' into table t1(...)
the method below is simple,but not allowed in lower version of mysql.
LOAD DATA INFILE 'file.txt'
INTO TABLE t1 (column1, @dummy, column2, @dummy, column3);
@ deemi :
The only way to ignore the @dummy
is by setting the field's Default to AUTO INCREMENT
. So you can skip the field and just code like this,
LOAD DATA INFILE 'file.txt'
INTO TABLE t1 (column2, column3, column4, column5);
//assumes that the fieldname column1
is set to AUTO INCREMENT
by default.
I think there is one more change in the code:
The following SQL command:
LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'filename.csv' INTO TABLE my_table
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
ENCLOSED BY ''
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
-will probably result in an data truncation error.
So it is better to use LINES TERMINATED BY '\\r\\n'
instead of LINES TERMINATED BY '\\n'
SO the code will be:
LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'filename.csv' INTO TABLE my_table
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
ENCLOSED BY ''
LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n'
