How to import a single table in to mysql database using command line

Linux :

In command line

 mysql -u username -p databasename < path/example.sql

put your table in example.sql

Import / Export for single table:

1. Export table schema

   mysqldump -u username -p databasename tableName > path/example.sql
   

   This will create a file named example.sql at the path mentioned and write the create table sql command to create table tableName.

2. Import a single table into database

   mysql -u username -p databasename < path/example.sql
   

   This command needs an sql file containing data in form of insert statements for table tableName. All the insert statements will be executed and the data will be loaded.

Export:

mysqldump --user=root databasename > whole.database.sql
mysqldump --user=root databasename onlySingleTableName > single.table.sql

Import:

Whole database:

mysql --user=root wholedatabase < whole.database.sql

Single table:

mysql --user=root databasename < single.table.sql

Importing the Single Table

To import a single table into an existing database you would use the following command:

mysql -u username -p -D database_name < tableName.sql

Note:It is better to use full path of the sql file tableName.sql

First of all, login to your database and check whether the database table which you want to import is not available on your database.

If it is available, delete the table using the command. Else it will throw an error while importing the table.

DROP TABLE Table_Name;

Then, move to the folder in which you have the .sql file to import and run the following command from your terminal

mysql -u username -p  databasename  < yourtable.sql

The terminal will ask you to enter the password. Enter it and check the database.

Command Line

Import / Export for single table:

Exporting table schema

 -> mysqldump -u your_user_name -p your_database_name table_name > test.sql

This will create a file named test.sql and creates table sql command to create table table_name.

Importing data into table

 -> mysql -u your_user_name -p database_name table_name < test.sql

Make sure your test.sql file is in the same directory, if not navigate through the path and then run the command.

It works correctly...

C:\>mysql>bin>mysql -u USERNAME DB_NAME < tableNameFile.sql

please note .sql file specified your current database..

If you're in the pwd of an SQL dump and you need a table from that, do this:

sed -n '/-- Table structure for table `'TableNameTo_GrabHere'`/,/-- Table/{ /^--.*$/d;p }' dump_file_to_extract_from.sql > table_name_here.sql

Then just import the table you extracted from the above into the needed database

We can import single table using CMD as below:

D:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.5.24\bin>mysql -h hostname -u username -p passowrd databasename < filepath

you can do it in mysql command instead of linux command.
1.login your mysql.
2.excute this in mysql command:
use DATABASE_NAME;
SET autocommit=0 ; source ABSOLUTE_PATH/TABLE_SQL_FILE.sql ; COMMIT ;

if you already have the desired table on your database, first delete it and then run the command below:

 mysql -u username -p  databasename  < yourtable.sql

From server to local(Exporting)

mysqldump -u username -p db_name table_name > path/filename.sql;
mysqldump -u root -p remotelab welcome_ulink > 
/home_local/ladmin/kakalwar/base/welcome_ulink.sql;

From local to server(Importing)

mysql -u username -p -D databasename < path/x/y/z/welcome_queue.sql
mysql -u root -p -D remotelab < 
/home_local/ladmin/kakalwar/instant_status/db_04_12/welcome_queue.sql

Also its working. In command form

cd C:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.5.8\bin //hit enter
mysql -u -p databasename //-u=root,-p=blank

• It would be combination of EXPORT INTO OUTFILE and LOAD DATA INFILE

• You need to export that single table with EXPORT INTO OUTFILE, this will export table data to a file. You can import that particular table using LOAD DATA INFILE

• Refer doc1 , doc2

Use the below command to import a single table into the database on RDS

mysql -h rds_end_point -u username -p databasename < example.sql

To import a particular table in database follow below command. Here table_name.sql is dump of taht particular table that you are going to import

mysql -u root -p database_name table_name < table_name.sql

To export a particular table from database follow below command.

mysqldump -u root -p database_name table_name > table_name.sql

-> mysql -h host -u user -p database_name table_name < test_table.sql

Using a temporary database could be a solution depending on the size of the database.

mysql -u [username] -p -e "create database tempdb"
mysql -u [username] -p tempdb < db.sql
mysqldump -u [username] -p tempdb _table_to_import_ > table_to_import.sql
mysql -u [username] -p maindb < table_to_import.sql

To import a table into database, if table is already exist then add this line in your sql file DROP TABLE IF EXIST 'table_name' and run command mysql -u username -p database_name < import_sql_file.sql. Please verify the sql file path before execute the command.

Open the backup file in the VScode and search the table name copy the create table and insert command for the table. Copy and execute those two commands in the database where it is required.

First of all take backup of your both database, step 2 select table which you want to export now select export button now download sql file now you have to import into another database simply select database and then import sql file ... simple and easy.
