Save to another database

Rails
1

Hi,

I want to save to current database to another one with the same format.
Does anyone know how to do it ?

I have a mysql database to which my Ruby on Rails is connected to.
And I want to export a whole table from the current database into
another database (with another hostname, another login, another
password).

Thanks in advance,

Greg

Why re-invent the wheel?

For most servers I admin, I use the MySQL Administration Tool. Works
real slick. Available from mysql.com/downloads. Works on Linux and
Windows.

If I need a quick change, I’ll use phpMyAdmin (Google it). PHP based
MySQL administration system. Also works really slick.

Can you not use these tools?

Yes, of course I can do that but this not the goal of the web
application that I’m building ! But thanks anyway for the answer !

The end user doesn’t know phpmyadmin, and should not learn it. So what I
want, it’s to make an automatic save of a table into an another
database.

The real goal of this kind of backup is that the current database is
local to the computer and the automatic save should make a copy of a
local table into another database. And this last database is online, and
can be view from internet.

Thanks in advance,

Greg
