I want to make a PHP script that will back up my selected tables from a database. From Stack Overflow I found this:
<?php
//ENTER THE RELEVANT INFO BELOW
$mysqlUserName = "root";
$mysqlPassword = "";
$mysqlHostName = "localhost";
$DbName = "test";
$backup_name = "mybackup.sql";
$tables = "msc_market";
//or add 5th parameter(array) of specific tables: array("mytable1","mytable2","mytable3") for multiple tables
Export_Database($mysqlHostName,$mysqlUserName,$mysqlPassword,$DbName, $tables=false, $backup_name=false );
function Export_Database($host,$user,$pass,$name, $tables=false, $backup_name=false )
{
$mysqli = new mysqli($host,$user,$pass,$name);
$mysqli->select_db($name);
$mysqli->query("SET NAMES 'utf8'");
$queryTables = $mysqli->query('SHOW TABLES');
while($row = $queryTables->fetch_row())
{
$target_tables[] = $row[0];
}
if($tables !== false)
{
$target_tables = array_intersect( $target_tables, $tables);
}
foreach($target_tables as $table)
{
$result = $mysqli->query('SELECT * FROM '.$table);
$fields_amount = $result->field_count;
$rows_num=$mysqli->affected_rows;
$res = $mysqli->query('SHOW CREATE TABLE '.$table);
$TableMLine = $res->fetch_row();
$content = (!isset($content) ? '' : $content) . "
".$TableMLine[1].";
";
for ($i = 0, $st_counter = 0; $i < $fields_amount; $i++, $st_counter=0)
{
while($row = $result->fetch_row())
{ //when started (and every after 100 command cycle):
if ($st_counter%100 == 0 || $st_counter == 0 )
{
$content .= "
INSERT INTO ".$table." VALUES";
}
$content .= "
(";
for($j=0; $j<$fields_amount; $j++)
{
$row[$j] = str_replace("
","\
", addslashes($row[$j]) );
if (isset($row[$j]))
{
$content .= '"'.$row[$j].'"' ;
}
else
{
$content .= '""';
}
if ($j<($fields_amount-1))
{
$content.= ',';
}
}
$content .=")";
//every after 100 command cycle [or at last line] ....p.s. but should be inserted 1 cycle eariler
if ( (($st_counter+1)%100==0 && $st_counter!=0) || $st_counter+1==$rows_num)
{
$content .= ";";
}
else
{
$content .= ",";
}
$st_counter=$st_counter+1;
}
} $content .="
";
}
//$backup_name = $backup_name ? $backup_name : $name."___(".date('H-i-s')."_".date('d-m-Y').")__rand".rand(1,11111111).".sql";
$backup_name = $backup_name ? $backup_name : $name.".sql";
header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: Binary");
header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=\"".$backup_name."\"");
echo $content;
}
?>
Now in this code I change the $tables value for selecting a single table or more. For more than one table I put an array with table names. But the problem is that every time I get a full backup of all tables even if I change $tables value every time I get same result. How do I get only a backup of the selected tables? Please help me.
