问题
I am having a mysqldump file which contains schema as well as data dump.
I need to import only database schema from my sqldump. I tried with following command:
mysql -uUSER -pPASSWORD < filename.sql
but of no help. it imports both schema as well as data.
How can I do it?
回答1:
IMHO, the easiest solution is to just open the dump in a regular text editor and copy the CREATE TABLE ... statements into another file. I would not even care about doing anything else.
If that's not an option for whatever the reason, you can simply create a new dump and this time separate structure and data in two files.
If that's not an option either, you can load the dump into a local MySQL server create the new dump from there, or use a GUI tool like HeidiSQL to transfer the structure right into the destination server.

Just in case you don't want to dump everything again and you just need it for some quick tests you could also cheat very dirty by using
grep -ve '^INSERT' dump.sql > dump-no-data.sql
Don't use this for production environments though.

As far as I know you can't as if it's in the dump, it will be inserted again.
What you can do is dump a database without the data in the first place using the -no-data option:
mysqldump -u username -p -h localhost –no-data database_name > dump.sql

if you want try this:
mysql -u USER -pPASSWORD database < database_schema.sql
