MySQL Export to CSV
Posted in mysql on February 14th, 2011 by Ben Boyter – Be the first to commentEver needed to export data from MySQL into a CSV file? Its actually fairly simple,
SELECT * INTO OUTFILE '/tmp/name.csv'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
ESCAPED BY '\\'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
FROM [tablename]
Certainly easier then writing a quick Python/Perl/PHP script to do the job.
