mysqldump_wrokbench data export advanced options not full and all mysqldump option support

Question

It's no full support and not flexible(WORKBENCH), still no solution....

I want to create dump scripts of each table in my database.... workbench 5.2.47 CE version i am using... I checked My database and all tables And options like dump stored routines, dump events

in advanced options i checked.......

add-locks,
complete-insert, 
replace,
hex-blob,
disable-keys,
order-by-primary,
create-options, 
allow-keywords,
quote-names

Problems.

1. How I save the configuration setting or all above setting I did..and second time I want to add just my setting file if I save.. And create a dump

2. CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS mydatabase /*!40100 DEFAULT CHARACTER SET latin1 */; USE mydatabase;

   ..................This one I want to skip or exclude form dump scripts but there are no options in workbench as in mysql command is there --no-create-db, -n and for remove USE mydatabase remove option as --databases

All mysqldump options are not available which I need.............

Any solution for above questions or any custom create options in workbench... Thanks..

Answer 1

I have just met similar problems and found the following way to add options. My environment is:

• Windows 8/64bit
• MySQL Workbench 6.08 (you may adjust the step according to your system such as Linux)

First, close MySQL Workbench

In the folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Workbench CE 6.0.8\modules there are many python files, there is a file called

1. wb_admin_export_options.py which is Python source code and there is another file with same name
2. wb_admin_export_options.pyc which is a compiled Python file.

Step to Edit

rename 2 into wb_admin_export_options.pyc-org to avoid the program
read the old option list and make a copy of 1 in case there is any
problem

run your code editor in Administrator mode if in Window for UAC reason. Open wb_admin_export_options.py

Note: You will see the option list for mysqldump which is appear in Workbench->Administration[Tab]->Advanced Options...[button on the top right]

Note on editing the file

Add the option you need in the list similar to the source code, eg: The true of false near the closing bracket means default value (check or uncheck by default)

"create-options":["Include all MySQL-specific table options in CREATE TABLE statements.","TRUE"],

Open the MySQL Workbench again and it will read the updated option list and let you choose from.

Hope this help.
