MySQL: Import from CSV
Today I had to import some data from a CSV file into a table on a MySQL server.
So here is how to do it:
LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/importfile.csv'
INTO TABLE test_table
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
(field1, filed2, field3);
Of course, you will need to have access to the machine where the database is running. As an alternative, I am sure there are developer tools that can enter the data remotely.
