Hi,
The purpose of the execute parameter I to execute a command and then
quit; An example of how to use the "--execute" or "-e" parameter
follows:
Prompt> mysql -e "select * from user" mysql
[prints everything from mysql.user to stdout]
If you want to execute the contents of a file through the console, you
would do something like:
Prompt> mysql --user=USER --password=PASSWORD DATABASE < WI_UPUSER.sql

Jorge

Subject: Execute multiple scripts
Hi,
I have approx. 110 SQL scripts in a directory. Each containing DROP
TABLE, CREATE TABLE, lots of INSERT INTO and finally a COMMIT. I need to
run all these script in mysql console.
My plan is to write a perl script that looks into the directory and
fetch all *.sql scripts and then execute them in mysql console. But I
can't running the mysql console with a script as parameter. I have tried
the following commands:
mysql --user=USER --password=PASSWORD DATABASE \.
C:/Files/data/WI_UPUSER.sql mysql --execute=C:/Files/data/WI_UPUSER.sql
--user=USER --password=PASSWORD DATABASE
None of them works!
How can I do this?
BR
Joacim
