Insert CSV to MySQL using Ubuntu Terminal via shell script
Maksym Polshcha's answer is correct but is only missing a few things. Apparently, since it's a local file, I have to declare it as a local file in the mysql command. The final command should be something like this:
mysql -uroot -proot --local_infile=1 3parsfdb -e "LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/logfiles/Bat_res.csv' INTO TABLE Bat_res FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','"Also I made sure that the /logfiles directory and the Bat_res.csv are world readable.
Thank you for the great answers.
Try this:
mysql -uroot -proot mysfdb -e "LOAD DATA INFILE '/home/sf/data.csv' INTO TABLE mytable"where mytable is your table for the data. If you have non-standard field/line separators in your CSV file use FIELDS TERMINATED BY and LINES TERMINATED BY
