# mysqldumpsplitter - MySQL Dump splitter to split / extract databases, tables, list from mysqldump with plenty of more funtionality. ### Usage: Download the utility from [website](http://kedar.nitty-witty.com/blog) or git repository.
************ Usage ************ sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --desc --extract [DB|TABLE|DBTABLES|ALLDBS|ALLTABLES|REGEXP] --match_str string --compression [gzip|pigz|bzip2|none] --decompression [gzip|pigz|bzip2|none] --output_dir [path to output dir] [--config /path/to/config]

Options:

--source: mysqldump filename to process. It could be a compressed or regular file. --desc: This option will list out all databases and tables. --extract: Specify what to extract. Possible values DB, TABLE, ALLDBS, ALLTABLES, REGEXP --match_str: Specify match string for extract command option. --compression: gzip/pigz/bzip2/none (default: gzip). Extracted file will be of this compression. --decompression: gzip/pigz/bzip2/none (default: gzip). This will be used against input file. --output_dir: path to output dir. (default: ./out/) --config: path to config file. You may use --config option to specify the config file that includes following variables. SOURCE= EXTRACT= COMPRESSION= DECOMPRESSION= OUTPUT_DIR= MATCH_STR= Ver. 5.0
### mysqldumpsplitter recipe: 1) Extract single database from mysqldump: `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --extract DB --match_str database-name` Above command will create sql for specified database from specified "filename" sql file and store it in compressed format to database-name.sql.gz. 2) Extract single table from mysqldump: `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --extract TABLE --match_str table-name` Above command will create sql for specified table from specified "filename" mysqldump file and store it in compressed format to database-name.sql.gz. 3) Extract tables matching regular expression from mysqldump: `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --extract REGEXP --match_str regular-expression` Above command will create sqls for tables matching specified regular expression from specified "filename" mysqldump file and store it in compressed format to individual table-name.sql.gz. 4) Extract all databases from mysqldump: `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --extract ALLDBS` Above command will extract all databases from specified "filename" mysqldump file and store it in compressed format to individual database-name.sql.gz. 5) Extract all table from mysqldump: `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --extract ALLTABLES` Above command will extract all tables from specified "filename" mysqldump file and store it in compressed format to individual table-name.sql.gz. 6) Extract list of tables from mysqldump: `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --extract REGEXP --match_str '(table1|table2|table3)'` Above command will extract tables from the specified "filename" mysqldump file and store them in compressed format to individual table-name.sql.gz. 7) Extract a database from compressed mysqldump: `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename.sql.gz --extract DB --match_str 'dbname' --decompression gzip` Above command will decompress filename.sql.gz using gzip, extract database named "dbname" from "filename.sql.gz" & store it as out/dbname.sql.gz 8) Extract a database from compressed mysqldump in an uncompressed format: `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename.sql.gz --extract DB --match_str 'dbname' --decompression gzip --compression none` Above command will decompress filename.sql.gz using gzip and extract database named "dbname" from "filename.sql.gz" & store it as plain sql out/dbname.sql 9) Extract alltables from mysqldump in different folder: `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --extract ALLTABLES --output_dir /path/to/extracts/` Above command will extract all tables from specified "filename" mysqldump file and extracts tables in compressed format to individual files, table-name.sql.gz stored under /path/to/extracts/. The script will create the folder /path/to/extracts/ if not exists. 10) Extract one or more tables from one database in a full-dump: Consider you have a full dump with multiple databases and you want to extract few tables from one database. Extract single database: `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --extract DB --match_str DBNAME --compression none` Extract all tables `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source out/DBNAME.sql --extract REGEXP --match_str "(tbl1|tbl2)"` though we can use another option to do this in single command as follows: `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --extract DBTABLE --match_str "DBNAME.(tbl1|tbl2)" --compression none` Above command will extract both tbl1 and tbl2 from DBNAME database in sql format under folder "out" in current directory. You can extract single table as follows: `sh mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --extract DBTABLE --match_str "DBNAME.(tbl1)" --compression none` 11) Extract all tables from specific database: `mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --extract DBTABLE --match_str "DBNAME.*" --compression none` Above command will extract all tables from DBNAME database in sql format and store it under "out" directory. 12) List content of the mysqldump file `mysqldumpsplitter.sh --source filename --desc` Above command will list databases and tables from the dump file.
