Question

This is the table I want to import in:

create table if not exists Medici(
        m_id int unsigned AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
        m_nume VARCHAR(50),
        m_prenume VARCHAR(50),
        Statut ENUM('primar', 'specialist'),
        Specialitate VARCHAR(50)
) ENGINE = InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET = utf8;

And the CSV starts with:

Nume,Prenume,Tip,Specialitate
Bunica,Mihai-Daniel,primar,reumatologie
Donca,Cornelia-Ana,primar,chirurgie
Achiriloaie,Lorand-Levente,specialist,neurologie

The code I wrote is:

load data infile 'D:/xxxxxxxxxxxxx/xxxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxx/xxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxx/medici.txt'
    into table Medici
    character set utf8
    fields terminated by ','
    lines starting by 'Nume,Prenume,Tip,Specialitate\n'
          terminated by '\n' 
    (m_nume,m_prenume,Statut,Specialitate);

Note: I changed terminated with \n, \r, \r\n, and I still get 1 row. Even with removing lines terminated by and it’s not working.

Note: I pasted quickly and messed up a bit, there are 4 rows there. And ye the CSV I assume it’s formated correctly

more of the code here:

Nume,Prenume,Tip,Specialitate
Bunica,Mihai-Daniel,primar,reumatologie
Donca,Cornelia-Ana,primar,chirurgie
Achiriloaie,Lorand-Levente,specialist,neurologie
Papuc,Raducu-Liviu,primar,homeopatie
Cucuiu,Nutu,primar,ortopedie
Buia,Tache,specialist,ginecologie
Dragomanu,Mitrut,specialist,ecografie
Ticu,Simona,specialist,psihiatrie
Ene,Adrian-Stefan,specialist,pediatrie
Copae,Toma,primar,neurologie
Hotoi,Dragos Alin,specialist,pediatrie
Ceafalau,Vincenţiu Mihail,primar,pediatrie
Briceag,Anca Stefana,primar,imagistica
Condrea,Nutu,primar,fizioterapie
Cruceru,Ioana-Loredana,primar,dermatologie
Soarece,Dan-Cristian,primar,o.r.l.
Tatasel,Alexandru-Ovidiu,specialist,psihologie
Sterian,Gologaneanu,primar,chirurgie
Postelnicu,Habib,primar,chirurgie
Silviu ,Adrian Ionut,primar,dermatologie
Paius,Ioana,specialist,ortopedie
Borza,Marius Florian,specialist,fizioterapie
Tamas,Ciprian Costel,primar,chirurgie
Ograzeanu,Cristina Alexandra,primar,endocrinologie
Rildo,Alex,specialist,ecografie

In the CSV, these lines are merged ( one row to another )
For example:
After reumatologie it starts with the name but when I paste the code you can see it’s actually an \n Bunica,Mihai-Daniel,primar,reumatologieDonca,(…. here is 2nd row and so on)

Answer 1

Try this command:

load data local infile

‘D:/xxxxxxxxxxxxx/xxxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxx/xxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxx/medici.txt’

into table Medici character set utf8 fields terminated by ‘,’

lines terminated by ‘\n’ IGNORE 1 LINES (m_nume,m_prenume,Statut,Specialitate);
