Question : LOAD DATA INFILE - TIMESTAMP, the correct usage
|
|
Hello Experts,
I have a tab delimited text file with a Date column. In MySQL database, the data type is set to TIMESTAMP and the default value is CURRENT_TIMESTAMP. I intend to upload the file by LOAD DATA INFILE
Do i need to stipulate a default value in the text file for that corresponding column?

>>for some reason I need to stipulate a value for every field. Because if your table has 2 fields `age`,`jerseyNumber` and you only supply 3 where should it go? The "importer" requires you to provide a value for each field for purposes of data integrity.
>>Is there a way to omit some fields? No
