How do I run 2 options of mysql Workbench together?

问题


I am trying to write a command-line script which will

  • open Workbench
  • connect to the specified database
  • open an sql file
  • run it
  • export the results into a text file

I made use of workbench's guide for command-line guide from (https://dev.mysql.com/doc/workbench/en/wb-command-line-options.html) up to the point of opening the app and connecting to the database. However, I can't combine the options. The options I write after "connect to database" are not read or run properly.

My question is how to combine/pipe them together.

The following command runs the app and connects to the database:

"C:\..\MySQLWorkbench.exe" --query testdb

When I add --script C:\..\23.10.20.sql or --open C:\..\23.10.20.sql they have no effect. I only get the app connected to the database with an empty window. I combine them like:

"C:\..\MySQLWorkbench.exe" --query testdb --script C:\..\23.10.20.sql

Is that the right way to combine them?

Edit: By trying two other options together, I confirmed that this is not the right way. I still need an answer for how to run 2 options one after the other.

The options from the workbench's guide I use are:

--query [connection|connection_string]:

Connection: Open a named connection.

--model modelfile: open the given EER model file.

--script script: Open the given SQL file in a connection, typically used with the --query parameter.

--run code: Execute the given code using the default language for GRT shell.

--open file: Open the given file at startup. Deprecated, so instead use specific types such as --script or --model.

Note: There is a note in this guide saying one dash (-) should be used for Windows instead of two (--). Although I am using Windows, that is not the case for me. The options are only run when I use two dashes. With one dash, nothing happens.


回答1:


You cannot use WB to export a result, only to open a specific connection and run a query or to run a python script. In principle it would be possible to use Python to export the data, but this is quite a lot of work for a small effect.

Instead I recommend not to use WB at all and instead work directly with MySQL in your script. A GUI is not well suited to do terminal work.
