10
12 myisam_ftdump displays information about FULLTEXT indexes in MyISAM
13 tables. It reads the MyISAM index file directly, so it must be run on
14 the server host where the table is located. Before using myisam_ftdump,
15 be sure to issue a FLUSH TABLES statement first if the server is
16 running.
17
18 myisam_ftdump scans and dumps the entire index, which is not
19 particularly fast. On the other hand, the distribution of words changes
20 infrequently, so it need not be run often.
21
22 Invoke myisam_ftdump like this:
23
24 shell> myisam_ftdump [options] tbl_name index_num
25
26 The tbl_name argument should be the name of a MyISAM table. You can
27 also specify a table by naming its index file (the file with the .MYI
28 suffix). If you do not invoke myisam_ftdump in the directory where the
29 table files are located, the table or index file name must be preceded
30 by the path name to the table´s database directory. Index numbers begin
31 with 0.
32
33 Example: Suppose that the test database contains a table named
34 mytexttablel that has the following definition:
35
36 CREATE TABLE mytexttable
37 (
38 id INT NOT NULL,
39 txt TEXT NOT NULL,
40 PRIMARY KEY (id),
41 FULLTEXT (txt)
42 );
43
44 The index on id is index 0 and the FULLTEXT index on txt is index 1. If
45 your working directory is the test database directory, invoke
46 myisam_ftdump as follows:
47
48 shell> myisam_ftdump mytexttable 1
49
50 If the path name to the test database directory is
51 /usr/local/mysql/data/test, you can also specify the table name
52 argument using that path name. This is useful if you do not invoke
53 myisam_ftdump in the database directory:
54
55 shell> myisam_ftdump /usr/local/mysql/data/test/mytexttable 1
56
57 You can use myisam_ftdump to generate a list of index entries in order
58 of frequency of occurrence like this:
59
60 shell> myisam_ftdump -c mytexttable 1 | sort -r
61
62 myisam_ftdump supports the following options:
63
64 · --help, -h -?
65
66 Display a help message and exit.
67
68 · --count, -c
69
70 Calculate per-word statistics (counts and global weights).
71
72 · --dump, -d
73
74 Dump the index, including data offsets and word weights.
75
76 · --length, -l
77
78 Report the length distribution.
79
80 · --stats, -s
81
82 Report global index statistics. This is the default operation if no
83 other operation is specified.
84
85 · --verbose, -v
86
87 Verbose mode. Print more output about what the program does.
