- fields available in table "user_data" description
- ------------------------------------- -----------
-
- data_id the unique ID number of this user data entry
- user_id the user's unique ID number (which corresponds to the user_id number of the user's record entry within the "users" table)
- record_id the unique ID number of the record this data entry is referring to (which corresponds to the 'serial' number of the record's entry within the "refs" table)
- marked has the user marked this record?
- copy has the user a printed copy of this record?
- selected has the user selected this publication? (by that he can label publications that are important to him/her OR, if he/she's among the authors, indicate that this is one of the "better" publications)
- user_keys the user's personal keywords for this record
- user_notes the user's personal notes for this record
- user_file if the user owns a digital copy of this record, he can specify its file name/path here
- user_groups the user's personal groups to which this record belongs (note that this field contains names of *reference* groups for this user, which must not be confused with the *user* groups from table 'users')
- cite_key the unique citation key for this record which uniquely identifies this record when citing
- related contains pointers to related records. Pointers can be serial numbers or partial queries, e.g.: '1234; 2678; 1988; author=steffens' -> items separated by ";" will be connected by OR. Pure-digit items: assumed to be record serials. Dynamic items: 'field=content' syntax will be resolved to 'field RLIKE "content"'

- ---------------------
- - fields are separated by tabs, records are separated by returns (if not specified otherwise within the LOAD DATA statement)
- - order of fields must resemble the above field order!
- - DATE format must be YYYY-MM-DD
- - TIME format must be HH:MM:SS
- - carriage returns *within* fields (ASCII character 11) must be replaced with a "UNIX return" (ASCII character 10) -> Search for: (\x0B) Replace with: \\n
- - empty fields are indicated by \N -> Search for: (?<=\t|^)(?=\t|$) Replace with: \\N
- - character encoding: higher ASCII chars must be encoded as ISO-8859-1
- - file encoding must be UNIX
-
-
- load data code
- --------------
-
- LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE "/PATH/TO/FILE/user_data.txt" INTO TABLE user_data;
-
- or, alternatively, use something like the following from your shell:
-
- mysqlimport --local -u root -p YOUR_DB_NAME "/PATH/TO/FILE/user_data.txt"
