在使用SQL*Loader往數據庫中導入blob或clob數據總令人有些頭疼。本文詳細記錄了用Oracle的SQL*Loader實現該功能的一個實驗案例，希望能對大家有幫助。

首先創建一張用于實驗的測試表

SCOTT@seiang11g>create table tb_clob(new_id number(20),new_to varchar2(100),new_subject varchar2(100),new_date date,new_content clob);
Table created.

下面是數據文件中的內容：

[oracle@wjq SQL*Loader]$ vim wjq_clob.csv
1,wjq123@qq.com,"Greeting from Mars",2017-11-02 10:59:43,\/u01\/app\/oracle\/SQL*Loader\/new_clob001.dat
2,seiang@126.com,"Special discount",2017-11-02 11:28:55,\/u01\/app\/oracle\/SQL*Loader\/new_clob002.dat
(特別注意：一定要注意數據文件的格式，不能有多余的空格存在，作者在這里栽過好多次的坑，否則導入的時候會報錯，所以執行導入之后最好查看一下日志信息)

new_content是消息正文，用clob數據類型表示。在數據文件中該字段僅保存每條記錄的消息正文的clob文件名。new_clob001.dat,，new_clob002.dat文件中保存new_content的真正內容。

new_clob001.dat文件中的內容：

[oracle@wjq SQL*Loader]$ cat new_clob001.dat
China's top judicial authorities presented long-anticipated reports on Wednesday to national legislators on their progress in upholding the law and preventing wrongful convictions in the wake of important judicial reforms in 2013.

The Supreme People's Court and Supreme People's Procuratorate both submitted reports to the bimonthly session of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress on Wednesday.The top court said it had overturned 37 wrongful convictions since November 2012, including in the high-profile case of Nie Shubin, who was exonerated on Dec 2, 2016, more than two decades after he was wrongly executed for rape and murder.

new_clob001.dat文件中的內容：

[oracle@wjq SQL*Loader]$ cat new_clob002.dat  
Thanks to these efforts, courts acquitted 4,032 defendants in accordance with the law between 2013 and September this year, the report said.

Courts have also been ordered to strictly exclude evidence obtained illegally, including evidence gained by torture, "and not to force anyone to plead guilty", Zhou said.In Shanghai, for example, between July 2016 and September this year, the city's courts received 24 applications from defense attorneys to strike evidence suspected to have been obtained illegally, leading to 15 reviews on the legality of evidence, he said.

導入上述的數據需要寫如下的控制文件：

[oracle@wjq SQL*Loader]$ cat wjq_clob.ctl
LOAD DATA  
INFILE '/u01/app/oracle/SQL*Loader/wjq_clob.csv' 
TRUNCATE INTO TABLE tb_clob 
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' 
( new_id       CHAR(20), 
  new_to       CHAR(100),   
  new_subject  CHAR(100), 
  new_date     DATE "YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS" ":new_date",
  clob_filename FILLER CHAR(1000000), 
  new_content  LOBFILE(clob_filename) TERMINATED BY EOF 
)

上述控制文件的關鍵在于定義一個clob_filename的偽字段(在SQL*Loader中就是filler)以獲取clob文件名，緊接著用lobfile從該文件導入消息正文。如果需要導入blob類型的數據，其方法完全一樣。

下面就開始執行導入操作：

[oracle@wjq ~]$ sqlldr scott/tiger control=/u01/app/oracle/SQL*Loader/wjq_clob.ctl log=/u01/app/oracle/SQL*Loader/wjq_clob.log

下面查看一下日志信息：

Table TB_CLOB:
  2 Rows successfully loaded.
  0 Rows not loaded due to data errors.
  0 Rows not loaded because all WHEN clauses were failed.
  0 Rows not loaded because all fields were null.

通過日志可以看到，導入成功，下面通過查詢表中的內容來進行驗證
