#Command mysql create database utf8 full
The MySQL documentation will give you the full overview, or you can find this valuable information at the command line like so. Character sets usually have a corresponding collation. It also defines the sort order to use on the data as well as the case sensitivity. Mysql> create database vegibit2 default character set utf8 Ĭollation encodes the rules that govern the correct use of characters for the character set. To do this at the command line, simply follow these steps. This will allow for a much more flexible storage option as you build out your application. In MySQL the default character set is latin1, however it may make more sense to choose ut8-f when creating your databases. You can go ahead and modify the character set manually on existing tables if need be however. Be advised! If you change the database character set after there are already many tables present, those tables will not be affected! Only new tables going forward will get that character set applied. A database itself is just a collection of tables, so if you assign a character set to a database, what that means is that once any tables get created, they will have that character set. When creating a database you can specify a character set if you choose. | Note | 1007 | Can't create database 'vegibit' database exists | We can dig deeper on our own by issuing the show warnings command. Notice it just says 1 warning, but not what it is. If we get a warning as the result of executing a MySQL command, MySQL does not display the actual warning by default. Query OK, 1 row affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec) Mysql> create database if not exists vegibit If you’d rather have MySQL not bark at you for you’re errors on creating a database, just add the if not exists clause like so. Have no fear, MySQL provides a syntax for dealing with exactly this scenario. Now what happens if we try to create a database and the name we choose is already in use? Well, let’s find out.ĮRROR 1007 (HY000): Can't create database 'vegibit' database exists If you made any errors, MySQL will provide an audible beep and associated error messages to the console. There we go, we’ve created a database to work with. Don’t forget to terminate you command with a semicolon. All you have to do is use the create database command followed by the name you would like to assign to your database. Let’s dig in.Ĭreating a database in MySQL is very straightforward. We’re going to start working with databases and tables in MySQL, for without them, we’re not going to be able to store or retrieve much data. This is where the MySQL Rubber hits the road. With the vocabulary, acronyms, and theory now out of the way, we can not focus on putting pen to paper so to speak. In this MySQL Series, we first have been taking a look at MySQL and SQL in general from a high level view.
