我是这样做的: 对现有数据库进行备份。它将为您提供一个db.zip.tmp，然后在命令提示符中写入以下内容

"C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin\ MySQL .exe localhost -u root -p[password][新数据库名]< "C:\Backups\db.zip.tmp"

这是我写的一个批处理文件，从命令行自动化，但它适用于Windows/MS-DOS。

语法:rename_mysqldb database newdatabase -u [user] -p[password]

TodoInTX的存储过程不太适合我。以下是我的尝试:

-- stored procedure rename_db: Rename a database my means of table copying.
-- Caveats: 
-- Will clobber any existing database with the same name as the 'new' database name.
-- ONLY copies tables; stored procedures and other database objects are not copied.
-- Tomer Altman (taltman@ai.sri.com)

对于mac用户，你可以使用Sequel Pro(免费)，它只提供重命名数据库的选项。虽然它不会删除旧的DB。

一旦打开相关的数据库，只需点击:数据库——>重命名数据库…

当您在PHPMyAdmin中重命名数据库时，它会创建一个转储，然后删除并使用新名称重新创建数据库。

可以将一个数据库中的所有表重命名为另一个数据库下的所有表，而不必执行完整的转储和恢复。

DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS mysql.rename_db;
DELIMITER ||
CREATE PROCEDURE mysql.rename_db(IN old_db VARCHAR(100), IN new_db VARCHAR(100))
BEGIN
SELECT CONCAT('CREATE DATABASE ', new_db, ';') `# create new database`;
SELECT CONCAT('RENAME TABLE `', old_db, '`.`', table_name, '` TO `', new_db, '`.`', table_name, '`;') `# alter table` FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = old_db;
SELECT CONCAT('DROP DATABASE `', old_db, '`;') `# drop old database`;
END||
DELIMITER ;

$ time mysql -uroot -e "call mysql.rename_db('db1', 'db2');" | mysql -uroot

然而，目标db中的任何触发器都不会开心。您需要先删除它们，然后在重命名后重新创建它们。

mysql -uroot -e "call mysql.rename_db('test', 'blah2');" | mysql -uroot
