在mysql中mysqldump是一个强大的数据库备份工具,我们很多功能都可以基于mysqldump来实现数据快速的备份,有需要的同学可以参考一下。
使用mysqldump
mysqldump -u root -p your-new-password databasename [tablename] > db.sql
比较大的表需要用优化的dump以节省内存:
mysqldump --opt database > backup-file.sql
mysqldump工具有大量的选项,部分选项如下表:
选项/Option 作用/Action Performed
--add-drop-table
这个选项将会在每一个表的前面加上DROP TABLE IF EXISTS语句,这样可以保证导回MySQL数据库的时候不会出错,因为每次导回的时候,都会首先检查表是否存在,存在就删除
--add-locks
这个选项会在INSERT语句中捆上一个LOCK TABLE和UNLOCK TABLE语句。这就防止在这些记录被再次导入数据库时其他用户对表进行的操作
-c or - complete_insert
这个选项使得mysqldump命令给每一个产生INSERT语句加上列(field)的名字。当把数据导出导另外一个数据库时这个选项很有用。
--delayed-insert 在INSERT命令中加入DELAY选项
-F or -flush-logs 使用这个选项,在执行导出之前将会刷新MySQL服务器的log.
-f or -force 使用这个选项,即使有错误发生,仍然继续导出
--full 这个选项把附加信息也加到CREATE TABLE的语句中
-l or -lock-tables 使用这个选项,导出表的时候服务器将会给表加锁。
-t or -no-create- info
这个选项使的mysqldump命令不创建CREATE TABLE语句,这个选项在您只需要数据而不需要DDL(数据库定义语句)时很方便。
-d or -no-data 这个选项使的mysqldump命令不创建INSERT语句。
在您只需要DDL语句时,可以使用这个选项。
--opt 此选项将打开所有会提高文件导出速度和创造一个可以更快导入的文件的选项。
-q or -quick 这个选项使得MySQL不会把整个导出的内容读入内存再执行导出,而是在读到的时候就写入导文件中。
-T path or -tab = path 这个选项将会创建两个文件,一个文件包含DDL语句或者表创建语句,另一个文件包含数据。DDL文件被命名为table_name.sql,数据文件被命名为table_name.txt.路径名是存放这两个文件的目录。目录必须已经存在,并且命令的使用者有对文件的特权。
-w "WHERE Clause" or -where = "Where clause "

NAME
mysqldump - a database backup program
SYNOPSIS
mysqldump [options] [db_name [tbl_name ...]]
DESCRIPTION
The mysqldump client can be used to dump a database or a collection of
databases for backup or for transferring the data to another SQL server
(not necessarily a MySQL server). The dump contains SQL statements to
create the table and/or populate the table.
If you are doing a backup on the server, and your tables all are MyISAM
tables, you could consider using the mysqlhotcopy instead since faster
backups and faster restores can be accomplished with the latter. See
mysqlhotcopy(1).
There are three general ways to invoke mysqldump:
shell> mysqldump [options] db_name [tables]
shell> mysqldump [options] --databases DB1 [DB2 DB3...]
shell> mysqldump [options] --all-databases
If you do not name any tables or use the --databases or --all-databases
option, entire databases are dumped.
To get a list of the options your version of mysqldump supports,
execute mysqldump --help.
If you run mysqldump without the --quick or --opt option, mysqldump
loads the whole result set into memory before dumping the result. This
probably is a problem if you are dumping a big database. As of MySQL
4.1, --opt is enabled by default, but can be disabled with --skip-opt.
If you are using a recent copy of the mysqldump program to generate a
dump to be reloaded into a very old MySQL server, you should not use
the --opt or -e options.
Before MySQL 4.1.2, out-of-range numeric values such as -inf and inf,
as well as NaN (not-a-number) values are dumped by mysqldump as NULL.
You can see this using the following sample table:
mysql> CREATE TABLE t (f DOUBLE);
mysql> INSERT INTO t VALUES(1e+111111111111111111111);
mysql> INSERT INTO t VALUES(-1e111111111111111111111);
mysql> SELECT f FROM t;
+------+
| f |
+------+
| inf |
| -inf |
+------+
For this table, mysqldump produces the following data output:
--
-- Dumping data for table ‘t‘
--
INSERT INTO t VALUES (NULL);
INSERT INTO t VALUES (NULL);
The significance of this behavior is that if you dump and restore the
table, the new table has contents that differ from the original
contents. This problem is fixed as of MySQL 4.1.2; you cannot insert
inf in the table, so this mysqldump behavior is only relevant when you
deal with old servers.
mysqldump supports the following options:
· --help, -?
Display a help message and exit.
· --add-drop-database
Add a DROP DATABASE statement before each CREATE DATABASE statement.
Added in MySQL 4.1.13.
· --add-drop-table
Add a DROP TABLE statement before each CREATE TABLE statement.
· --add-locks
Surround each table dump with LOCK TABLES and UNLOCK TABLES
statements. This results in faster inserts when the dump file is
reloaded. See Section 2.13, “Speed of INSERT Statements”.
· --all-databases, -A
Dump all tables in all databases. This is the same as using the
--databases option and naming all the databases on the command line.
· --allow-keywords
Allow creation of column names that are keywords. This works by
prefixing each column name with the table name.
· --comments[={0|1}]
If set to 0, suppresses additional information in the dump file such
as program version, server version, and host. --skip-comments has
the same effect as --comments=0. The default value is 1, which
includes the extra information. Added in MySQL 4.0.17.
· --compact
Produce less verbose output. This option suppresses comments and
enables the --skip-add-drop-table, --no-set-names,
--skip-disable-keys, and --skip-add-locks options. Added in MySQL
4.1.2.
· --compatible=name
Produce output that is more compatible with other database systems
or with older MySQL servers. The value of name can be ansi,
mysql323, mysql40, postgresql, oracle, mssql, db2, maxdb,
no_key_options, no_table_options, or no_field_options. To use
several values, separate them by commas. These values have the same
meaning as the corresponding options for setting the server SQL
mode. See the section called “THE SERVER SQL MODE”.
This option does not guarantee compatibility with other servers. It
only enables those SQL mode values that are currently available for
making dump output more compatible. For example, --compatible=oracle
does not map data types to Oracle types or use Oracle comment
syntax.
This option requires a server version of 4.1.0 or higher. With older
servers, it does nothing.
· --complete-insert, -c
Use complete INSERT statements that include column names.
· --compress, -C
Compress all information sent between the client and the server if
both support compression.
· --create-options
Include all MySQL-specific table options in the CREATE TABLE
statements. Before MySQL 4.1.2, use --all instead.
· --databases, -B
Dump several databases. Normally, mysqldump treats the first name
argument on the command line as a database name and following names
as table names. With this option, it treats all name arguments as
database names. CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS db_name and USE
db_name statements are included in the output before each new
database.
· --debug[=debug_options], -# [debug_options]
Write a debugging log. The debug_options string is often
´d:t:o,file_name’.
· --default-character-set=charset
Use charset as the default character set. See Section 7.1, “The
Character Set Used for Data and Sorting”. If not specified,
mysqldump from MySQL 4.1.2 or later uses utf8, and earlier versions
use latin1.
· --delayed-insert
Insert rows using INSERT DELAYED statements.
· --delete-master-logs
On a master replication server, delete the binary logs after
performing the dump operation. This option automatically enables
--first-slave before MySQL 4.1.8 and enables --master-data
thereafter. It was added in MySQL 3.23.57 (for MySQL 3.23) and MySQL
4.0.13 (for MySQL 4.0).
· --disable-keys, -K
For each table, surround the INSERT statements with /*!40000 ALTER
TABLE tbl_name DISABLE KEYS */; and /*!40000 ALTER TABLE tbl_name
ENABLE KEYS */; statements. This makes loading the dump file into a
MySQL 4.0 or newer server faster because the indexes are created
after all rows are inserted. This option is effective for MyISAM
tables only.
· --extended-insert, -e
Use multiple-row INSERT syntax that include several VALUES lists.
This results in a smaller dump file and speeds up inserts when the
file is reloaded.
· --fields-terminated-by=..., --fields-enclosed-by=...,
--fields-optionally-enclosed-by=..., --fields-escaped-by=...,
--lines-terminated-by=...
These options are used with the -T option and have the same meaning
as the corresponding clauses for LOAD DATA INFILE. See Section 2.5,
“LOAD DATA INFILE Syntax”.
· --first-slave, -x
Deprecated, renamed to --lock-all-tables in MySQL 4.1.8.
· --flush-logs, -F
Flush the MySQL server log files before starting the dump. This
option requires the RELOAD privilege. Note that if you use this
option in combination with the --all-databases (or -A) option, the
logs are flushed for each database dumped. The exception is when
using --lock-all-tables or --master-data: In this case, the logs are
flushed only once, corresponding to the moment that all tables are
locked. If you want your dump and the log flush to happen at exactly
the same moment, you should use --flush-logs together with either
--lock-all-tables or --master-data.
· --force, -f
Continue even if an SQL error occurs during a table dump.
· --host=host_name, -h host_name
Dump data from the MySQL server on the given host. The default host
is localhost.
· --hex-blob
Dump binary string columns using hexadecimal notation (for example,
´abc’ becomes 0x616263). The affected columns are BINARY, VARBINARY,
and BLOB in MySQL 4.1 and up, and CHAR BINARY, VARCHAR BINARY, and
BLOB in MySQL 4.0. This option was added in MySQL 4.0.23 and 4.1.8.
· --lock-all-tables, -x
Lock all tables across all databases. This is achieved by acquiring
a global read lock for the duration of the whole dump. This option
automatically turns off --single-transaction and --lock-tables.
Added in MySQL 4.1.8.
· --lock-tables, -l
Lock all tables before starting the dump. The tables are locked with
READ LOCAL to allow concurrent inserts in the case of MyISAM tables.
For transactional tables such as InnoDB and BDB,
--single-transaction is a much better option, because it does not
need to lock the tables at all.
Please note that when dumping multiple databases, --lock-tables
locks tables for each database separately. So, this option does not
guarantee that the tables in the dump file are logically consistent
between databases. Tables in different databases may be dumped in
completely different states.
· --master-data[=value]
This option causes the binary log position and filename to be
written to the output. This option requires the RELOAD privilege and
the binary log must be enabled. If the option value is equal to 1,
the position and filename are written to the dump output in the form
of a CHANGE MASTER statement that makes a slave server start from
the correct position in the master’s binary logs if you use this SQL
dump of the master to set up a slave. If the option value is equal
to 2, the CHANGE MASTER statement is written as an SQL comment. This
is the default action if value is omitted. value may be given as of
MySQL 4.1.8; before that, do not specify an option value.
The --master-data option turns on --lock-all-tables, unless
--single-transaction also is specified (in which case, a global read
lock is only acquired a short time at the beginning of the dump. See
also the description for --single-transaction. In all cases, any
action on logs happens at the exact moment of the dump. This option
automatically turns off --lock-tables.
· --no-create-db, -n
This option suppresses the CREATE DATABASE /*!32312 IF NOT EXISTS*/
db_name statements that are otherwise included in the output if the
--databases or --all-databases option is given.
· --no-create-info, -t
Do not write CREATE TABLE statements that re-create each dumped
table.
· --no-data, -d
Do not write any row information for the table. This is very useful
if you want to get a dump of only the structure for a table.
· --opt
This option is shorthand; it is the same as specifying
--add-drop-table --add-locks --create-options --disable-keys
--extended-insert --lock-tables --quick --set-charset. It should
give you a fast dump operation and produce a dump file that can be
reloaded into a MySQL server quickly. As of MySQL 4.1, --opt is on
by default, but can be disabled with --skip-opt. To disable only
certain of the options enabled by --opt, use their --skip forms; for
example, --skip-add-drop-table or --skip-quick.
· --password[=password], -p[password]
The password to use when connecting to the server. If you use the
short option form (-p), you cannot have a space between the option
and the password. If you omit the password value following the
--password or -p option on the command line, you are prompted for
one.
· --port=port_num, -P port_num
The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection.
· --protocol={TCP | SOCKET | PIPE | MEMORY}
The connection protocol to use. Added in MySQL 4.1.
· --quick, -q
This option is useful for dumping large tables. It forces mysqldump
to retrieve rows for a table from the server a row at a time rather
than retrieving the entire row set and buffering it in memory before
writing it out.
· --quote-names, -Q
Quote database, table, and column names within ‘‘’ characters. If
the server SQL mode includes the ANSI_QUOTES option, names are
quoted within ‘"’ characters. As of MySQL 4.1.1, --quote-names is on
by default. It can be disabled with --skip-quote-names, but this
option should be given after any option such as --compatible that
may enable --quote-names.
· --result-file=file, -r file
Direct output to a given file. This option should be used on
Windows, because it prevents newline ‘n’ characters from being
converted to ‘rn’ carriage return/newline sequences.
· --set-charset
Add SET NAMES default_character_set to the output. This option is
enabled by default. To suppress the SET NAMES statement, use
--skip-set-charset. This option was added in MySQL 4.1.2.
· --single-transaction
This option issues a BEGIN SQL statement before dumping data from
the server. It is useful only with transactional tables such as
InnoDB and BDB, because then it dumps the consistent state of the
database at the time when BEGIN was issued without blocking any
applications.
When using this option, you should keep in mind that only InnoDB
tables are dumped in a consistent state. For example, any MyISAM or
HEAP tables dumped while using this option may still change state.
The --single-transaction option was added in MySQL 4.0.2. This
option is mutually exclusive with the --lock-tables option, because
LOCK TABLES causes any pending transactions to be committed
implicitly.
To dump big tables, you should combine this option with --quick.
· --socket=path, -S path
The socket file to use when connecting to localhost (which is the
default host).
· --skip-comments
See the description for the --comments option.
· --tab=path, -T path
Produce tab-separated data files. For each dumped table, mysqldump
creates a tbl_name.sql file that contains the CREATE TABLE statement
that creates the table, and a tbl_name.txt file that contains its
data. The option value is the directory in which to write the files.
By default, the .txt data files are formatted using tab characters
between column values and a newline at the end of each line. The
format can be specified explicitly using the --fields-xxx and
--lines--xxx options.
Note: This option should be used only when mysqldump is run on the
same machine as the mysqld server. You must have the FILE privilege,
and the server must have permission to write files in the directory
that you specify.
· --tables
Override the --databases or -B option. All arguments following the
option are regarded as table names.
· --user=user_name, -u user_name
The MySQL username to use when connecting to the server.
· --verbose, -v
Verbose mode. Print out more information on what the program does.
· --version, -V
Display version information and exit.
