SQL Dump Splitter

Overview

This project offers tools to split a large SQL dump file into individual files for each database. It includes both a Python script and a Windows batch file to accommodate different user preferences and environments. The tools are designed to efficiently process SQL dumps, identify different databases, and create separate SQL files for each database.

Features

  • Multiple Script Options: Python script for versatility and a Windows batch file for ease of use in Windows environments.
  • Database Identification: Automatically detects different databases within a SQL dump.
  • File Creation: Generates separate SQL files for each database.
  • User-Friendly: Easy to use, catering to both Python and non-Python users.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.x (for the Python script)
  • Windows OS (for the batch file)

Installation

No additional installation is required for running these scripts, as they use standard libraries and Windows commands.

Usage

Using the Python Script

  1. Place the SQL dump file in the same directory as the script or specify the file path.
  2. Run the script using Python:
    python sql_dump_splitter.py
    

Using the Batch File

Ensure the SQL dump file is in the same directory as the batch file.

Simply double-click the batch file or run it in a command prompt:

sql_dump_splitter.bat

Both scripts will create separate SQL files for each database in the dump.
