PHP - Importing Csv Into Mysql Through Php Not Working Right
Hello,
I am trying to import a CSV file into an existing mysql table but it doesn't seem to work well.
Here is how my mysql is looking like:
1 a_id int(11) AUTO_INCREMENT 2 a_lobecoid int(7) 3 a_code varchar(30) utf8_general_ci 4 a_omschint varchar(60) utf8_general_ci 5 a_beveiligingniv int(5) 6 a_type varchar(5) utf8_general_ci 7 a_assortiment int(5) 8 a_discipline varchar(30) utf8_general_ci 9 a_brutoprijs varchar(50) utf8_general_ci 10 a_status varchar(5) utf8_general_ci 11 a_levcode varchar(10) utf8_general_ci 12 a_omschr_nl varchar(60) utf8_general_ci 13 a_omschr_fr varchar(60) utf8_general_cithese are some lines from my CSV file 16158|-H|Factory installed heater|10|S|400|CCTV|45.0|E| 1829|Factory installed heater|Factory installed heater 16159|-IR|Factory installed IR LED ring|10|S|400|CCTV|50.0|E| 1829|Factory installed IR LED ring|Factory installed IR LED ring 9001|00-SBN2|Smoke box niet geaspireerd,230VAC|10|S|267|BRAND|1587.03|D| 642|Smoke box niet geaspireerd,230VAC|Smoke box pas aspiré,230VCA 9003|00-TP1|Telescopische verlengstok voor Smoke box,2,4-4,6m|10|S|267|BRAND|644.09000000000003|D| 642|Telescopische verlengstok voor Smoke box,2,4-4,6m|Rallonge téléscopique pour Smoke box,2,4-4,6m 9004|00-TP2|Telescopische verlengstok voor Smoke box,2,4-9,2m|10|S|267|BRAND|944.64999999999998|D| 642|Telescopische verlengstok voor Smoke box,2,4-9,2m|Rallonge téléscopique pour Smoke box,2,4-9,2m 12161|001-0081|Thermistor probe,rood, high temp. 0-+150°C|10|S|52|INBRAAK|136.91|D| 1731|Thermistor probe,rood, high temp. 0-+150°C|Sonde température,rouge,high temp. 0-+150°CHere you have the code for the import: $upload_article_query = "LOAD DATA INFILE 'ARTIKELS.CSV' INTO TABLE artikelen FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' LINES TERMINATED BY '\\r\\n' (a_lobecoid, a_code, a_omschint, a_beveiligingniv, a_type, a_assortiment, a_discipline, a_brutoprijs, a_status, a_levcode, a_omschr_nl, a_omschr_fr)"; $upload_article_stmt = $dbh->prepare($upload_article_query); $upload_article_stmt->execute();If i use the code then in the MYSQL table the first line is filled in but where the second line has to start it just writes it into the last column and doesn't start a new line. Also if i edit that first line it shows a lot of "?" (questionmarks) into a window symbol. Anyone has an idea what i am doing wrong? In attachment some printscreens of my table after the insert.

So I have this script to import a CSV file into my database:
<?php $databasehost = "localhost"; $databasename = "import"; $databasetable = "import"; $databaseusername="username"; $databasepassword = "password"; $fieldseparator = ","; $lineseparator = "\n"; $csvfile = "test.csv"; if(!file_exists($csvfile)) { die("File not found. Make sure you specified the correct path."); } try { $pdo = new PDO("mysql:host=$databasehost;dbname=$databasename", $databaseusername, $databasepassword, array( PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_LOCAL_INFILE => true, PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION ) ); } catch (PDOException $e) { die("database connection failed: ".$e->getMessage()); } $pdo->exec("TRUNCATE TABLE `$databasetable`"); $affectedRows = $pdo->exec(" LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE ".$pdo->quote($csvfile)." REPLACE INTO TABLE `$databasetable` FIELDS TERMINATED BY ".$pdo->quote($fieldseparator)." LINES TERMINATED BY ".$pdo->quote($lineseparator)." IGNORE 1 LINES"); echo "Loaded a total of $affectedRows records from this csv file.\n"; ?>So that script basically imports a csv replacing all of the other data. The issue I am having is that the data inside one of the columns contains commas, they are wrapped in quotations. Here is an example: ,"1 Registered Keeper, Full Service History, Central Locking, Electric Windows, Electric Mirrors, ABS, Traction Control, Climate Control, Power Steering, Drivers Airbag, Passenger Airbag, Side Airbags, Cruise Control, Alarm, Immobiliser, Half Leather Interior, Alloy Wheels", How could I make the script determine the text within those quotation marks as a whole value instead of separating them into individual columns? Thanks any help on this would be great! Hi all,
I'm working on a project involving an orders set of APIs, and having trouble coming up with the best logic to handle this - with the smallest amount of overhead and client facing slowness. Here's the jist of what I'm looking at...
There are 21 API methods to pull different types of orders, and each of them handle paging by requesting a number of records (10 - 500), and a page number. So I could say in my URI, "page-no=1&no-of-records=50", followed by "page-no=2&no-of-records=50", to get subsequent records. The API will return in each call the total records returned as well as the total records in their database.
Now, I want to insert all of this into my database, and so that means something like 21 APIs * 3 SQL requests each = 63 sql queries (check it exists, if so update - else insert).
This seems to me like way too much work for a client facing application. Any suggestions?
Hi everyone, I am currently making a page for a friend to upload a bunch of photos at a time. I was quite pleased that after a bit of googling and trial and error, I figured out how to do this so that multiple records could be added to my table with one submit button. However, my form has 10 browse iconcs. A few tests have revealed that my problem is that if only one picture is uploaded, I still get 9 entries in my database, which I don't want. My question is how can I alter the code so that a row is only populated in the database if an image is uploaded. I guess something that sort of says : if($imgx!="") { populate that row in the table } else { don't } ...and the same for $imgx002 through to $imgx010 The current query is below. Any pointers are much appreciated. Code: [Select] $query = "INSERT INTO photo_uploads (date, photo_name)" . "VALUES (NOW(), '$imgx'), (NOW(), '$imgx002'), (NOW(), '$imgx003'), (NOW(), '$imgx004'), (NOW(), '$imgx005'), (NOW(), '$imgx006'), (NOW(), '$imgx007'), (NOW(), '$imgx008'), (NOW(), '$imgx009'), (NOW(), '$imgx010')"; Hi friends i need a small help in importing csv files into mySQL database table i tried all possible options but i am no where... here is the example for what i am trying to do Mysql DB name = raw Table name is = dump +--------------------+--------------------+ + Account + Bal + +--------------------+--------------------+ + + + +--------------------+--------------------+ CSV Format 50************13, 11095 When they upload the file it should automatically get inserted into appropriate fields any help would be great i tried all possible scripts found in the net could nothing is happening Hi Guys Just need some advice to go in the right direction. I'm working on a csv upload script (part of a bigger thing i'm building), so i read in the csv to a multipdimensional array and then build a query that inputs all rows in one query - i read this is the most efficient way to import multiple rows of data at once(rather than multiple insert statements). Just for illustration here's the code i use to build the query so you understand what i'm on about: Code: [Select] $sql = "INSERT INTO teams (company, teamname, teamnum, amountraised, country, president) VALUES "; // $rows is a count of the rows in the csv for($i=1; $i<$rows; $i++){ $sql.="('{$myarray[$i][0]}','{$myarray[$i][1]}','{$myarray[$i][2]}','{$myarray[$i][3]}','{$myarray[$i][4]}','{$myarray[$i][5]}')"; echo $i . "<br/>"; if($i >= 1 && $i < $rows - 1) { $sql.= ","; } } Anyway, the issue is that one of the fields("teamnum") needs to be unique - so i've set this as unique on the table in mysql. But when i run my query it doesn't import anything if one of the records isn't unique. What i really want is for it to import the ones it can and catch the ones it cant import to present to the user. So my question is - to acheive the above would i need to rewrite the query so that it inserts each row one at a time, instead of all together? Or can someone point me in the right direction for a better solution? Probably something very simple i've missed i am sure... Thanks chaps! does anyone know who to resolve this issue of importing a CSV file from excel into sql? I get this error when I do. LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/tmp/phpq2aAbU' INTO TABLE `Events` FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '\\"' ESCAPED BY '\\\\' LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n' When I echo the POST, it echoes the correct value. The MySQL portion seems to just ignore it all together. I've tried changing the dropdown option to just a text field, same thing occurred. I have text fields right above this particular one that update just fine with the SAME exactly scripting. if POST, update query, done. Works. This one for some reason will not. MySQL portion: if ($_POST['bUpdate']){ mysql_query("UPDATE `Patients` SET `b` = '$_POST[bUpdate]' WHERE `id` = '".$_GET['id']."'"); } echo $_POST['bUpdate']; Form Portion: Code: [Select] <tr onmouseover="color(this, '#baecff');" onmouseout="uncolor(this);"> <td width="310" colspan="2" align="center"><span class="fontoptions">Postcard Status </span><br /> <? if ($data['b'] == 1){ echo '<select name="bUpdate"><option value="1" selected>Yes</option><option value="0">No</option></select>'; } else { echo '<select name="bUpdate"><option value="1">Yes</option><option value="0" selected>No</option></select>'; } ?> </td> </tr> I'm attempting to import a mysql database backup via php unfortunately I keep getting this error: Code: [Select] You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'SOURCE file.sql' at line 1 Code: mysql_query("SOURCE file.sql") or die (mysql_error()); I've researched this online and this seems to be the way everyone suggests to use, unfortunately it isn't working. If it helps here is the first 4 lines of file.sql as that may be the problem for all I know: -- phpMyAdmin SQL Dump -- version 3.2.4 -- http://www.phpmyadmin.net -- Haven't really used traits much and am confused whether to import other classes in the trait or the class that uses the trait (might also be an annotation question but not sure). Must import statements (i.e. use Foo\Bar;) be included in the class or can they be included in just the trait which is used by a class? Does it depend and if so on what? Does having one class use another class impact the decision? Is it okay for one trait to use another and another trait to just use the first trait or should it use both? What is odd is I apparently must (to not get an error) import ApiProperty to the trait but doing so is not required for the class, and must import Groups, SerializedName, and Mapping in the class but doing so is not required for the trait. Instead of just a yes/no answer, would appreciate an explanation why it is what it is.

I'm looking to upgrade the admin panel and offer the ability to be able to see the number of records as they're being imported instead of it hanging there until the query is completed. The tough part about a progress bar is obviously you have to know the # of items being imported beforehand, and that varies each time the feed is downloaded. So I'm just trying to get some suggestions from someone who may have written something similar. Thanks in advance! I need to write a code were users can login to his/her email account from my site to import contacts to be selected and used. I know you need to use api's for this. Has anyone done this before who can give me some useful tips? Hello, I've got two questions. Users can fill in a form with information that has to be in the following format: Value 1, Value 2, Value 3, Value 4 Value 1, Value 2, Value 3, Value 4 Now I want to return an error if ANY line isn't in that format. For example when it's like this: Value 1, Value 2, Value 3, Value 4 Value 1, Value 3, Value 4 I've got no clue how to do that... The second question is, how can I get a specific line of the posted information? I've already gotten an answer on how to count those lines, which is working. But I'm going to insert them into the database using a for loop, so I need to insert one row at a time. Thanks for your time and help, Chris I need someone to look over this and just see if they can see why this won't work anymore? It worked when the site was in development but when it came down to the day it's not working. Basically it reads a CSV and inserted the driver into a Quali or Results table in the correct order but it's not working anymore? If someone could have a read over it and suggest what might be going wrong that would be great. Edit: It basically just added the same driver 24 times in the table.
