如果你正在寻找一个php脚本，请参阅下面。

$link = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password');
if (!$link) {
  die('Not connected : ' . mysql_error());
}

// make foo the current db
$db_selected = mysql_select_db('foo', $link);
if (!$db_selected) {
  die ('Cannot use foo : ' . mysql_error());
}

下面是一个bash函数，用于检查数据库是否存在:

function does_db_exist {
  local db="${1}"

  local output=$(mysql -s -N -e "SELECT schema_name FROM information_schema.schemata WHERE schema_name = '${db}'" information_schema)
  if [[ -z "${output}" ]]; then
    return 1 # does not exist
  else
    return 0 # exists
  fi
}           

另一种选择是尝试使用数据库。注意，这也检查权限:

if mysql "${db}" >/dev/null 2>&1 </dev/null
then
  echo "${db} exists (and I have permission to access it)"
else
  echo "${db} does not exist (or I do not have permission to access it)"
fi

从壳像bash

if [[ ! -z "`mysql -qfsBe "SELECT SCHEMA_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SCHEMATA WHERE SCHEMA_NAME='db'" 2>&1`" ]];
then
  echo "DATABASE ALREADY EXISTS"
else
  echo "DATABASE DOES NOT EXIST"
fi

SELECT IF('database_name' IN(SELECT SCHEMA_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SCHEMATA), 1, 0) AS found;

Golang解决方案

创建一个测试包并添加:

import "database/sql"

// testing database creation
func TestCreate(t *testing.T){
    Createdb("*Testdb") // This just calls the **sql.DB obect *Testdb 
    db,err := sql.Open("mysql", "root:root@tcp(127.0.0.1:3306)/*Testdb")
    if err != nil{
        panic(err)
    }
    defer db.Close()
    _, err = db.Exec("USE *Testdb")
    if err != nil{
        t.Error("Database not Created")
    }

} 

有了这个脚本，你可以得到是否数据库存在，如果它不存在，它不会抛出异常。

SELECT 
    IF(EXISTS( SELECT 
                SCHEMA_NAME
            FROM
                INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SCHEMATA
            WHERE
                SCHEMA_NAME = 'DbName'),
        'Yes',
        'No')  as exist
