如何使用 LOADDATAINFILE 将选定的列从 CSV 文件插入到 MySQL 数据库

LOAD DATA INFILE 'file.csv'
INTO TABLE t1
(column1, @dummy, column2, @dummy, column3, ...)
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' ESCAPED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n';

Just replace the column1, column2, etc.. with your column names, and put @dummy anwhere there's a column in the CSV you want to ignore.

Full details here.

Load data into a table in MySQL and specify columns:

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'file.csv' INTO TABLE t1
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
(@col1,@col2,@col3,@col4) set name=@col4,id=@col2 ;

@col1,2,3,4 are variables to hold the csv file columns (assume 4 ) name,id are table columns.

Specify the name of columns in the CSV in the load data infile statement.

The code is like this:

LOAD DATA INFILE '/path/filename.csv'
INTO TABLE table_name
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n'
(column_name3, column_name5);

Here you go with adding data to only two columns(you can choose them with the name of the column) to the table.

The only thing you have to take care is that you have a CSV file(filename.csv) with two values per line(row). Otherwise please mention. I have a different solution.

Thank you.

Example:

contents of the ae.csv file:

"Date, xpto 14"
"code","number","year","C"
"blab","15885","2016","Y"
"aeea","15883","1982","E"
"xpto","15884","1986","B"
"jrgg","15885","1400","A"

CREATE TABLE Tabletmp (
rec VARCHAR(9)
);

For put only column 3:

LOAD DATA INFILE '/local/ae.csv'
INTO TABLE Tabletmp
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n'
IGNORE 2 LINES
(@col1, @col2, @col3, @col4, @col5)
set rec = @col3;




select * from Tabletmp;
2016
1982
1986
1400

For those who have the following error:

Error Code: 1290. The MySQL server is running with the --secure-file-priv option so it cannot execute this statement

You can simply run this command to see which folder can load files from:

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE "secure_file_priv";

After that, you have to copy the files in that folder and run the query with LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE instead of LOAD DATA INFILE.

if you have number of columns in your database table more than number of columns in your csv you can proceed like this:

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'pathOfFile.csv'
INTO TABLE youTable
CHARACTER SET latin1 FIELDS TERMINATED BY ';' #you can use ',' if you have comma separated
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
ESCAPED BY '\\'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n'
(yourcolumn,yourcolumn2,yourcolumn3,yourcolumn4,...);
