This is a php version of linux's mysqldump in terminal "$ mysqldump -u username -p...", without dependencies, output compression and sane defaults.

- MySQL 4.1.0 or newer
- PDO
Using Composer:
$ composer require ifsnop/mysqldump-php:1.*
Or via json file:
"require": {
"ifsnop/mysqldump-php":"1.*"
}
Using Curl:
$ curl --silent --location https://github.com/ifsnop/mysqldump-php/archive/v1.4.1.tar.gz | tar xvfz -
With Autoloader/Composer:
<?php
use Ifsnop\Mysqldump as IMysqldump;
try {
$dump = new IMysqldump\Mysqldump('database', 'username', 'password');
$dump->start('storage/work/dump.sql');
} catch (\Exception $e) {
echo 'mysqldump-php error: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
?>
Plain old PHP:
<?php
include_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/mysqldump-php-1.4.1/src/Ifsnop/Mysqldump/Mysqldump.php');
$dump = new Ifsnop\Mysqldump\Mysqldump( 'database', 'username', 'password');
$dump->start('storage/work/dump.sql');
?>

To dump a database, you need the following privileges :
- SELECT
- In order to dump table structures and data.
- SHOW VIEW
- If any databases has views, else you will get an error.
- TRIGGER
- If any table has one or more triggers.
- LOCK TABLES
- If "lock tables" option was enabled.
Use SHOW GRANTS FOR user@host; to know what privileges user has. See the following link for more information:
Which are the minimum privileges required to get a backup of a MySQL database schema?
- Write unit tests.
