11In this tutorial we will learn how to “Import Excel Sheet Data in MySQL

Database using PHP. When we develop some database linked website where
we have to enter data in database, sometime we have to upload bulk data in
database. If we insert data one by one it will be very difficult and time
consuming. Here You will learn how to insert bulk of data in database from
excel sheet in a couple of minutes.
This script will import data from .csv file, so save your excel sheet in .csv file.
The code is very simple we have two file here

1. index.php
2. connection.php
connection.php contain our MySQL connection detail that is localhost,
username, password and obviously database name.

1 $hostname = "localhost";
2 $username = "root";
3 $password = "";
4 $database = "test";
5
6
7 $conn = mysql_connect("$hostname","$username","$password") or die(mysql_error());
8 mysql_select_db("$database", $conn);
index.php, it contain simple form to let user to upload file and some PHP
code to insert that data in our MySQL database. So lets have a view on our
index.php file
(You may also read: Export MySQL Table Data into Excel Sheet Format in
PHP)
HTML form:

1 <form name="import" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">


2 <input type="file" name="file" /><br />
3 <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
4 </form>
Please make sure that you have added enctype=”multipart/form-data”
attribute in your form tag. So it can handle file uploading.

Here is our PHP code:


1
2
3
4
5
6 if(isset($_POST["submit"]))
7 {
8 $file = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];
9 $handle = fopen($file, "r");
1 $c = 0;
0 while(($filesop = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== false)
1 {
1 $name = $filesop[0];
1 $email = $filesop[1];
2
1 $sql = mysql_query("INSERT INTO csv (name, email) VALUES ('$name','$email')");
3 }
1
4 if($sql){
1 echo "You database has imported successfully";
5 }else{
1 echo "Sorry! There is some problem.";
6 }
1 }

In my case I have a database “test” and a table “csv”, csv table have three
fields id, name and email. You can use your existing database and configure
your query in above code and the important thing to note is that when you
are making .csv file make it according to your MySQL database pattern. For
example if you have name first in your query then make first column of excel
sheet for name and up-to soon.

OK there is one question that how we can get the column address of excel
sheet or .csv file. We are getting our data in form of an array. Then obviously
we should have to treat it like an array (if you don’t know about array please
read it at php.net). So it will work like this.

1 $filesop[number_of_column];
$filesop is our array name and number _of_column refers to our address
of column of excel sheet. And array always start from 0 it means that the
address of 1st column of excel sheet is 0 here.
