I am trying to export a MySQL table to a CSV file. The code I have works fine:
$result = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM `TABLE`');
if (!$result) die('Couldn\'t fetch records');
$num_fields = mysql_num_fields($result);
$headers = array();
for ($i = 0; $i < $num_fields; $i++)
{
$headers[] = mysql_field_name($result , $i);
}
$fp = fopen('php://output', 'w');
if ($fp && $result)
{
header('Content-Type: text/csv');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="export.csv"');
header('Pragma: no-cache');
header('Expires: 0');
fputcsv($fp, $headers);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result))
{
fputcsv($fp, array_values($row));
}
die;
}
However I would like to have the csv file uploaded automatically to my web host server instead of being downloaded to my computer.
I can't use the "SELECT... INTO OUTFILE" query as my provider does not want to give me the FILE privilege.
Any way I can wright the csv output to my provider's server with php instead of downloading it to my computer?
