MySQL Dump Utility
==================

[](#mysql-dump-utility)

This is a backup utility used to dump a database for backup or transfer to another MySQL server. The dump typically contains SQL statements to create the table, populate it, or both.

It requires PHP 5.6 (release 1.5) or PHP 7.1 or later.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Create [MySQLi](http://www.php.net/manual/en/mysqli.construct.php) object and pass it to the MySQLDump:

```
$db = new mysqli('localhost', 'root', 'password', 'database');
$dump = new MySQLDump($db);
```

You can optionally specify how each table or view should be exported:

```
$dump->tables['search_cache'] = MySQLDump::DROP | MySQLDump::CREATE;
$dump->tables['log'] = MySQLDump::NONE;
```

Then simply call `save()` or `write()`:

```
$dump->save('export.sql.gz');
```

Import dump from file to database this way:

```
$import = new MySQLImport($db);
$import->load('dump.sql.gz');
```
