mysql命令行修改字符编码

1 修改数据库字符编码

mysql> alter database mydb character set utf8 ;

2 创建数据库时，指定数据库的字符编码

mysql> create database mydb character set utf8 ;

3 查看mysql数据库的字符编码

mysql> show variables like ‘character%’; //查询当前mysql数据库的所有属性的字符编码

Variable_name	Value
character_set_client	latin1
character_set_connection	latin1
character_set_database	utf8
character_set_filesystem	binary
character_set_results	latin1
character_set_server	utf8
character_set_system	utf8
character_sets_dir	/usr/share/mysql/charsets/

4 修改mysql数据库的字符编码

修改字符编码必须要修改mysql的配置文件my.cnf,然后重启才能生效

通常需要修改my.cnf的如下几个地方：

【client】下面，加上default-character-set=utf8，或者character_set_client=utf8

【mysqld】下面，加上character_set_server = utf8 ；

因为以上配置，mysql默认是latin1，如果仅仅是通过命令行客户端，mysql重启之后就不起作用了。

如下是客户端命令行修改方式，不推荐使用

mysql> set character_set_client=utf8 ;

mysql> set character_set_connection=utf8 ;

mysql> set character_set_database=utf8 ;

mysql> set character_set_database=utf8 ;

mysql> set character_set_results=utf8 ;

mysql> set character_set_server=utf8 ;

mysql> set character_set_system=utf8 ;

mysql> show variables like ‘character%’;

Variable_name	Value
character_set_client	utf8
character_set_connection	utf8
character_set_database	utf8
character_set_filesystem	binary
character_set_results	utf8
character_set_server	utf8
character_set_system	utf8
character_sets_dir	/usr/share/mysql/charsets/
