NAME

DBI::Dumper - Dump data from a DBI datasource to file.

SYNOPSIS

         << in test.ctl >>
         OPTIONS (export=100,rows=100)
         EXPORT DATA REPLACE INTO FILE 'test.dat'
         FIELDS TERMINATED BY TAB 
                 ENCLOSED BY '"' AND '"' 
                 ESCAPED BY '\'
         WITH HEADER FROM
         SELECT * FROM MY_TABLE
 
         my $dumper = DBI::Dumper->new(
                 -dbh => $dbh,
                 -control => 'test.ctl',
                 -output => 'test.dat',
         );
 
         $dumper->prepare;
         $dumper->execute;
 
         
         # have DBI::Dumper login to database
         my $dumper = DBI::Dumper->new(
                 -userid => 'user/pass@sid',
                 ...
         );
 
 
         # send a statement handle instead of database handle
         my $sth = DBI->connect()->prepare("SELECT * FROM MY TABLE");
         $dumper->execute($sth);
 
 

DESCRIPTION

Dumps data from a select statement into an output file. dbidumper tries to mirror the functionality and behavior of sql*loader. The control file syntax is similar, and DBI::Dumper utilizes a subset of the sql*loader options.

Configuration options can be set either in the control file, passed to the new() method, or by calling the option's accessor.

Options

userid=username/password@sid
Login information for database connection.

If the sid includes a colon, the full string will be used as the DBI dsn. For example:

         userid=username/password@mysql:database
 
 

Will connect to mysql's 'database' database as username.

Otherwise, DBI::Dumper assumes a dbi:Oracle connection and prefixes the dsn with dbi:Oracle:. If no dsn is passed, DBI::Dumper first looks in $ENV{DBI_DSN} then $ENV{ORACLE_SID}.

control=filename
Input control filename. Defaults to standard input. See ``CONTROL FILE'' for layout and description.
output=filename
Output filename for data. Defaults to standard output. If rows is given, can contain template consisting of three or more Xs. The Xs will be replaced with the file sequence number. If the template does not contain three or more Xs, the sequence number will be appended to the filename with a dot. Examples:
rows=n
Number of rows per output file. Defaults to all rows in one output file.
export=n
Total number of rows to export. Use to limit output or restart dump.
skip=n
Number of rows to skip from beginning. File sequence number will be preserved, so if rows=n is set, this can be used to restart a job.
bindsize=n
Block size to write file. Defaults to write each record as returned from database. If set, dbidumper will collect rows into a buffer at most n bytes large before writing to file.
silent=true
Suppress normal logging information. dbidumper will only report errors.

Exporting to Multiple Files

rows=1000 output=outputXXXXX.dat
Data will be written to output00001.dat, output00002.dat, etc.
rows=1000 output=output.dat
Data will be written to output.dat.0001, output.dat.0002, etc.
output=outputXXXXX.dat
Data will be written to outputXXXXX.dat

DEPENDENCIES

This program depends on the following perl modules, available from a CPAN mirror near you:
Parse::RecDescent - Recursive parser
DBI - Standard database interface

CONTROL FILE

The control file used for dbidumper is very similar to sql*loader's. The full specification is:
         [ OPTIONS ([option], ...) ]
         EXPORT DATA [ REPLACE | APPEND ] [ INTO FILE 'filename' ]
         [ FIELDS
                 [ TERMINATED [BY] {TAB | 'string' | X'hexstring'} ] |
                 [ ENCLOSED [BY] {'string' | X'hexstring'} 
                         [AND] ['string' | X'hexstring'] ]
                 [ ESCAPED [BY] {'string' | X'hexstring'} ]
         ]
         [ WITH HEADER ]
         FROM
         select_statement
