篇首语：本文由小常识网(cha138.com)小编为大家整理，主要介绍了MySQL的information_schema库相关的知识，希望对你有一定的参考价值。
information_schema数据库是mysql自带的，它提供了访问数据库元数据的方式。
什么是元数据呢？元数据是关于数据的数据，如数据库名或表名、列的数据类型，或访问权限。有些时候用于表述该信息的其他术语包括“数据字典”和“系统目录”。
在MySQL中，把information_schema看作是一个数据库，确切的说是信息数据库。
其中保存着关于MySQL服务器所维护的所有其他数据库的信息。如数据库名、数据库的表、表栏的数据类型与访问权限等。
在information_schema中，有数个只读表。它们实际上是视图，而不是基本表，因此，你将无法看到与之相关的任何文件。
information_schema数据库说明：
+---------------------------------------+ | Tables_in_information_schema | +---------------------------------------+ | CHARACTER_SETS | | COLLATIONS | | COLLATION_CHARACTER_SET_APPLICABILITY | | COLUMNS | | COLUMN_PRIVILEGES | | ENGINES | | EVENTS | | FILES | | GLOBAL_STATUS | | GLOBAL_VARIABLES | | KEY_COLUMN_USAGE | | PARAMETERS | | PARTITIONS | | PLUGINS | | PROCESSLIST | | PROFILING | | REFERENTIAL_CONSTRAINTS | | ROUTINES | | SCHEMATA | | SCHEMA_PRIVILEGES | | SESSION_STATUS | | SESSION_VARIABLES | | STATISTICS | | TABLES | | TABLESPACES | | TABLE_CONSTRAINTS | | TABLE_PRIVILEGES | | TRIGGERS | | USER_PRIVILEGES | | VIEWS | | INNODB_BUFFER_PAGE | | INNODB_TRX | | INNODB_BUFFER_POOL_STATS | | INNODB_LOCK_WAITS | | INNODB_CMPMEM | | INNODB_CMP | | INNODB_LOCKS | | INNODB_CMPMEM_RESET | | INNODB_CMP_RESET | | INNODB_BUFFER_PAGE_LRU | +---------------------------------------+
SCHEMATA表：提供了当前MySQL实例中所有数据库的信息。show databases;的结果取值于此。
mysql> select * from schemata; +--------------+--------------------+----------------------------+------------------------+----------+ | CATALOG_NAME | SCHEMA_NAME | DEFAULT_CHARACTER_SET_NAME | DEFAULT_COLLATION_NAME | SQL_PATH | +--------------+--------------------+----------------------------+------------------------+----------+ | def | information_schema | utf8 | utf8_general_ci | NULL | | def | civil | utf8 | utf8_general_ci | NULL | | def | class_7 | utf8 | utf8_general_ci | NULL | | def | db1 | utf8 | utf8_general_ci | NULL | | def | express | utf8 | utf8_general_ci | NULL | | def | mysql | utf8 | utf8_general_ci | NULL | | def | performance_schema | utf8 | utf8_general_ci | NULL | | def | test | utf8 | utf8_general_ci | NULL | +--------------+--------------------+----------------------------+------------------------+----------+ 8 rows in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> desc schemata; +----------------------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra | +----------------------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | CATALOG_NAME | varchar(512) | NO | | | | | SCHEMA_NAME | varchar(64) | NO | | | | | DEFAULT_CHARACTER_SET_NAME | varchar(32) | NO | | | | | DEFAULT_COLLATION_NAME | varchar(32) | NO | | | | | SQL_PATH | varchar(512) | YES | | NULL | | +----------------------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ 5 rows in set (0.00 sec)
从表中可以看出，SCHEMATA中包含每个库的名字、字符集等信息。
COLUMNS表：提供了表中的列信息。详细表述了某张表的所有列以及每个列的信息。show columns from schemaname.tablename的结果取值于此。
mysql> desc columns; +--------------------------+---------------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra | +--------------------------+---------------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | TABLE_CATALOG | varchar(512) | NO | | | | | TABLE_SCHEMA | varchar(64) | NO | | | | | TABLE_NAME | varchar(64) | NO | | | | | COLUMN_NAME | varchar(64) | NO | | | | | ORDINAL_POSITION | bigint(21) unsigned | NO | | 0 | | | COLUMN_DEFAULT | longtext | YES | | NULL | | | IS_NULLABLE | varchar(3) | NO | | | | | DATA_TYPE | varchar(64) | NO | | | | | CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | CHARACTER_OCTET_LENGTH | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | NUMERIC_PRECISION | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | NUMERIC_SCALE | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | CHARACTER_SET_NAME | varchar(32) | YES | | NULL | | | COLLATION_NAME | varchar(32) | YES | | NULL | | | COLUMN_TYPE | longtext | NO | | NULL | | | COLUMN_KEY | varchar(3) | NO | | | | | EXTRA | varchar(27) | NO | | | | | PRIVILEGES | varchar(80) | NO | | | | | COLUMN_COMMENT | varchar(1024) | NO | | | | +--------------------------+---------------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ 19 rows in set (0.00 sec)
TABLES表：提供了关于数据库中的表的信息（包括视图）。详细表述了某个表属于哪个schema（概述）、表类型、表引擎、创建时间等信息。show tables from schemaname的结果取值于此。
mysql> desc tables; +-----------------+---------------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra | +-----------------+---------------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | TABLE_CATALOG | varchar(512) | NO | | | | | TABLE_SCHEMA | varchar(64) | NO | | | | | TABLE_NAME | varchar(64) | NO | | | | | TABLE_TYPE | varchar(64) | NO | | | | | ENGINE | varchar(64) | YES | | NULL | | | VERSION | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | ROW_FORMAT | varchar(10) | YES | | NULL | | | TABLE_ROWS | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | AVG_ROW_LENGTH | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | DATA_LENGTH | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | MAX_DATA_LENGTH | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | INDEX_LENGTH | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | DATA_FREE | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | AUTO_INCREMENT | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | CREATE_TIME | datetime | YES | | NULL | | | UPDATE_TIME | datetime | YES | | NULL | | | CHECK_TIME | datetime | YES | | NULL | | | TABLE_COLLATION | varchar(32) | YES | | NULL | | | CHECKSUM | bigint(21) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | CREATE_OPTIONS | varchar(255) | YES | | NULL | | | TABLE_COMMENT | varchar(2048) | NO | | | | +-----------------+---------------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ 21 rows in set (0.00 sec)
STATISTICS表：提供了关于表索引的信息。show index from schemaname.tablename的取值于此。
