Output the contents of the table as CSV

To output the contents of the table as CSV, specify "in to out file" in the select statement. Specify "," as the delimiter and "" "in the character string enclosure.

select * from book
   into outfile'/tmp/book.csv'
   fields terminated by','
   optionally enclosed by'"';
