Running a .sql script using MySQL with JDBC

Question

I am starting to use MySQL with JDBC.

Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"); conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql:///x", "x", "x"); stmt = conn.createStatement(); stmt.execute( "CREATE TABLE amigos" +             "("+             "id          int AUTO_INCREMENT          not null,"+             "nombre      char(20)                    not null,"+             "primary key(id)" +             ")"); 

I have 3-4 tables to create and this doesn't look good.

Is there a way to run a .sql script from MySQL JDBC?

Answer 1

Ok. You can use this class here (posted on pastebin because of file length) in your project. But remember to keep the apache license info.

JDBC ScriptRunner

It's ripoff of the iBatis ScriptRunner with dependencies removed.

You can use it like this

Connection con = .... ScriptRunner runner = new ScriptRunner(con, [booleanAutoCommit], [booleanStopOnerror]); runner.runScript(new BufferedReader(new FileReader("test.sql"))); 

That's it!
