MariaDB – Drop Tables



In this chapter, we will learn to delete tables.

Table deletion is very easy, but remember all deleted tables are irrecoverable. The general syntax for table deletion is as follows −

DROP TABLE table_name ;

Two options exist for performing a table drop: use the command prompt or a PHP script.

The Command Prompt

At the command prompt, simply use the DROP TABLE SQL command −

root@host# mysql -u root -p
Enter password:*******
mysql> use PRODUCTS;
Database changed
mysql> DROP TABLE products_tbl

mysql> SELECT * from products_tbl
ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table ''products_tbl'' doesn''t exist

PHP Drop Table Script

PHP provides mysql_query() for dropping tables. Simply pass its second argument the appropriate SQL command −

<html>
   <head>
      <title>Create a MariaDB Table</title>
   </head>

   <body>
      <?php
         $dbhost = ''localhost:3036
         $dbuser = ''root
         $dbpass = ''rootpassword
         $conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass);
         
         if(! $conn ) {
            die(''Could not connect: '' . mysql_error());
         }
         echo ''Connected successfully<br />
         
         $sql = "DROP TABLE products_tbl";
         mysql_select_db( ''PRODUCTS'' );
         $retval = mysql_query( $sql, $conn );
      
         if(! $retval ) {
            die(''Could not delete table: '' . mysql_error());
         }
         echo "Table deleted successfullyn";
         
         mysql_close($conn);
      ?>
   </body>
</html>

On successful table deletion, you will see the following output −

mysql> Table deleted successfully
