基于上面@Nathan的回答，但不需要“删除最终的联合”，并带有对输出进行排序的选项，我使用以下SQL。它生成另一个SQL语句，然后运行:

select CONCAT( 'select * from (\n', group_concat( single_select SEPARATOR ' UNION\n'), '\n ) Q order by Q.exact_row_count desc') as sql_query
from (
    SELECT CONCAT(
        'SELECT "', 
        table_name, 
        '" AS table_name, COUNT(1) AS exact_row_count
        FROM `', 
        table_schema,
        '`.`',
        table_name, 
        '`'
    ) as single_select
    FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 
    WHERE table_schema = 'YOUR_SCHEMA_NAME'
      and table_type = 'BASE TABLE'
) Q 

您确实需要一个足够大的group_concat_max_len服务器变量的值，但是从MariaDb 10.2.4开始，它应该默认为1M。

简单的方法:

SELECT
  TABLE_NAME, SUM(TABLE_ROWS)
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = '{Your_DB}'
GROUP BY TABLE_NAME;

结果示例:

+----------------+-----------------+
| TABLE_NAME     | SUM(TABLE_ROWS) |
+----------------+-----------------+
| calls          |            7533 |
| courses        |             179 |
| course_modules |             298 |
| departments    |              58 |
| faculties      |             236 |
| modules        |             169 |
| searches       |           25423 |
| sections       |             532 |
| universities   |              57 |
| users          |           10293 |
+----------------+-----------------+

还有一个选择:对于非InnoDB，它使用information_schema中的数据。TABLES(因为它更快)，对于InnoDB -选择count(*)来获得准确的计数。它还会忽略视图。

SET @table_schema = DATABASE();
-- or SET @table_schema = 'my_db_name';

SET GROUP_CONCAT_MAX_LEN=131072;
SET @selects = NULL;

SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(
        'SELECT "', table_name,'" as TABLE_NAME, COUNT(*) as TABLE_ROWS FROM `', table_name, '`'
        SEPARATOR '\nUNION\n') INTO @selects
  FROM information_schema.TABLES
  WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = @table_schema
        AND ENGINE = 'InnoDB'
        AND TABLE_TYPE = "BASE TABLE";

SELECT CONCAT_WS('\nUNION\n',
  CONCAT('SELECT TABLE_NAME, TABLE_ROWS FROM information_schema.TABLES WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = ? AND ENGINE <> "InnoDB" AND TABLE_TYPE = "BASE TABLE"'),
  @selects) INTO @selects;

PREPARE stmt FROM @selects;
EXECUTE stmt USING @table_schema;
DEALLOCATE PREPARE stmt;

如果你的数据库有很多大的InnoDB表，计算所有行会花费更多的时间。

SELECT SUM(TABLE_ROWS) 
     FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 
     WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = '{your_db}';

从文档中注意到:对于InnoDB表，行数只是用于SQL优化的粗略估计。您需要使用COUNT(*)来获得精确的计数(成本更高)。

海报想要行计数，但没有指定哪个表引擎。对于InnoDB，我只知道一种方法，那就是计数。

我是这样摘土豆的:

# Put this function in your bash and call with:
# rowpicker DBUSER DBPASS DBNAME [TABLEPATTERN]
function rowpicker() {
    UN=$1
    PW=$2
    DB=$3
    if [ ! -z "$4" ]; then
        PAT="LIKE '$4'"
        tot=-2
    else
        PAT=""
        tot=-1
    fi
    for t in `mysql -u "$UN" -p"$PW" "$DB" -e "SHOW TABLES $PAT"`;do
        if [ $tot -lt 0 ]; then
            echo "Skipping $t";
            let "tot += 1";
        else
            c=`mysql -u "$UN" -p"$PW" "$DB" -e "SELECT count(*) FROM $t"`;
            c=`echo $c | cut -d " " -f 2`;
            echo "$t: $c";
            let "tot += c";
        fi;
    done;
    echo "total rows: $tot"
}

我对此没有任何断言，只是说这是一种非常丑陋但有效的方法，可以获得数据库中每个表中存在多少行，而不需要使用表引擎，也不需要拥有安装存储过程的权限，也不需要安装ruby或php。是的，生锈了。是的，这很重要。Count(*)是准确的。
