PHP, MySQL - Insert CSV file with header - php

Question

I have CSV file with header and data fields. How can I insert this via SQL query and remove headers. At the moment code that I wrote is working, but it is inserting header as a data into DB.
The code:
$files = directory_map('./assets/csv/');
foreach ($files as $file) :
$filefile = './assets/csv/' . $file;
$q = "LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '$filefile' INTO TABLE person FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' (personal_name, personal_lastname,
personal_country,personal_address,contact_email,dateadded);";
$this->db->query($q);
endforeach;

Answer 1

You can use the ignore xx lines clause in load data (the doc on this)[http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/load-data.html] skip down about a third of the way:
$q = "LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '$filefile' INTO TABLE person FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' ignore 1 lines (personal_name, personal_lastname,
personal_country,personal_address,contact_email,dateadded);";
This will cause the input to skip 1 line of the CSV - which I am assuming is your headers. Skip however many lines are needed to get to the data itself.

Answer 2

Try this: Hope so this will work for you..
$c = 1;
$files = directory_map('./assets/csv/');
foreach ($files as $file) :
if($c==2;) continue;
$filefile = './assets/csv/' . $file;
$q = "LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '$filefile' INTO TABLE person FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' (personal_name, personal_lastname, personal_country,personal_address,contact_email,dateadded);";
$this->db->query($q);
$c++;
endforeach;
