不完全是CSV格式，但是MySQL客户端的tee命令可以用来将输出保存到本地文件中:

tee foobar.txt
SELECT foo FROM bar;

你可以使用notee禁用它。

SELECT…INTO OUTFILE…的问题;它需要在服务器上写文件的权限。

从Save MySQL查询结果到一个文本或CSV文件:

SELECT order_id,product_name,qty
FROM orders
WHERE foo = 'bar'
INTO OUTFILE '/var/lib/mysql-files/orders.csv'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n';

注意:该语法可能需要重新排序

SELECT order_id,product_name,qty
INTO OUTFILE '/var/lib/mysql-files/orders.csv'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
FROM orders
WHERE foo = 'bar';

在MySQL的最新版本。

使用此命令，将不会导出列名。

还要注意/var/lib/ MySQL -files/orders.csv将在运行MySQL的服务器上。MySQL进程运行所在的用户必须具有写入所选目录的权限，否则该命令将失败。

如果您想从远程服务器(特别是托管或虚拟机，如Heroku或Amazon RDS)向本地机器写入输出，则此解决方案不适合。

Paul Tomblin给出的OUTFILE解决方案导致一个文件被写入MySQL服务器本身，因此只有当您拥有file访问权限，以及登录访问权限或从该框检索文件的其他方法时，这才会起作用。

如果您没有这样的访问权限，并且以制表符分隔的输出是CSV的合理替代品(例如，如果您的最终目标是导入到Excel)，那么serbaut的解决方案(使用mysql -batch和可选的-raw)就是要走的路。

mysql your_database --password=foo < my_requests.sql > out.tsv

这将产生一个制表符分隔的格式。如果你确定逗号没有出现在任何列数据中(选项卡也没有)，你可以使用这个管道命令来获得一个真正的CSV(感谢用户John Carter):

... .sql | sed 's/\t/,/g' > out.csv

下面的Bash脚本适合我。它还可以选择获取所请求表的模式。

MySQL Workbench可以将记录集导出到CSV，而且它似乎可以很好地处理字段中的逗号。CSV可以在OpenOffice Calc中打开。
