Rails代码:

ruby-1.9.2-p290 :099 > ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute("USE INFORMATION_SCHEMA")

ruby-1.9.2-p290 :099 > ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute("SELECT SCHEMA_NAME FROM         INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SCHEMATA WHERE SCHEMA_NAME = 'entos_development'").to_a
SQL (0.2ms) SELECT SCHEMA_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SCHEMATA WHERE SCHEMA_NAME =               'entos_development'
=> [["entos_development"]] 
ruby-1.9.2-p290 :100 > ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute("SELECT SCHEMA_NAME FROM              INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SCHEMATA WHERE SCHEMA_NAME = 'entos_development1'").to_a
SQL (0.3ms) SELECT SCHEMA_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SCHEMATA WHERE SCHEMA_NAME =            'entos_development1'
=> []

=> entos_development存在，entos_development1不存在

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());
}

另一个php解决方案，但与PDO:

<?php
try {
   $pdo = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=dbname', 'root', 'password', [ PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION ]);
   echo 'table dbname exists...';
}
catch (PDOException $e) {
   die('dbname not 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")
    }

} 

冗长而令人费解(但请容忍我!)，这里是一个类系统，我做的检查是否DB存在，并创建所需的表:

<?php
class Table
{
    public static function Script()
    {
        return "
            CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `users` ( `id` INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT );

        ";
    }
}

class Install
{
    #region Private constructor
    private static $link;
    private function __construct()
    {
        static::$link = new mysqli();
        static::$link->real_connect("localhost", "username", "password");
    }
    #endregion

    #region Instantiator
    private static $instance;
    public static function Instance()
    {
        static::$instance = (null === static::$instance ? new self() : static::$instance);
        return static::$instance;
    }
    #endregion

    #region Start Install
    private static $installed;
    public function Start()
    {
        var_dump(static::$installed);
        if (!static::$installed)
        {
            if (!static::$link->select_db("en"))
            {
                static::$link->query("CREATE DATABASE `en`;")? $die = false: $die = true;
                if ($die)
                    return false;
                static::$link->select_db("en");
            }
            else
            {
                static::$link->select_db("en");          
            }
            return static::$installed = static::DatabaseMade();  
        }
        else
        {
            return static::$installed;
        }
    }
    #endregion

    #region Table creator
    private static function CreateTables()
    {
        $tablescript = Table::Script();
        return static::$link->multi_query($tablescript) ? true : false;
    }
    #endregion

    private static function DatabaseMade()
    {
        $created = static::CreateTables();
        if ($created)
        {
            static::$installed = true;
        }
        else
        {
            static::$installed = false;
        }
        return $created;
    }
}

在这种情况下，您可以将数据库名称en替换为您喜欢的任何数据库名称，也可以将创建者脚本更改为任何名称，并且(希望!)不会破坏它。如果有人可以改进这一点，请告诉我!
