I have a CSV file that I want to import into a MySQL DB table. The file
contains 15 fields. The able to import into will contain those same 15
fields, plus an auto-generated Primary Key fields.
Since this is the first time I'm working with mysqlimport, I created a
small test table to start with - "simple1", containing two varchar
fields - field1 and field2.
I'm trying to import a small test file into simple1, to get the hang of
using mysqlimport. The test file contains 2 records and 3 lines - the
3rd line is blank:
"test1","test2"
"test11","test3"
I run the import as follows:
C:\Program Files\xampp\mysql\bin>mysqlimport.exe
--lines-terminated-by=\r --fields-terminated-by=, --local --user=root
cars c:\dev\test\simple1.csv
The import report shows: Records: 1 Deleted: 0 Skipped: 0 Warnings: 0
The data that ends up in the DB, however, only contains 1 record:
"\"test1\"","\"test2\"
\"test11\""
(1) how do I get mysqlimport to import both records, properly parsing
the fields - two fields per record?
(2) do I need to wrap the imported records in double-quotes? Why do the
double-quotes show up in the MySQL DB table?
