MySQLDump - PHP

Requirements | Installing | Getting started | API | Settings | PDO Settings | TODO | License | Credits

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

Out of the box, MySQLDump-PHP supports backing up table structures, the data itself, views and triggers.

Requirements

• PHP 5.3.0 or newer
• MySQL 4.1.0 or newer
• PDO

Installing

Using Composer:

$ composer require ifsnop/mysqldump-php:1.*

Using Curl:

$ curl --silent --location https://github.com/ifsnop/mysqldump-php/archive/v1.3.tar.gz | tar xvfz -

Getting started

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-1.3/src/Ifsnop/Mysqldump/Mysqldump.php');
    $dump = new Ifsnop\Mysqldump\Mysqldump( 'database', 'username', 'password');
    $dump->start('storage/work/dump.sql');

?>
