restore one database from full backup

I got a full backup of all my mysql databases to a dumpfile dumpfile.sql

how do I restore only one database from that dump file instead of
everything?

thanks

I will assume you produced the backup with:

mysqldump -u user -ppassword --all-databases >fulldumpfile

You can filter your dumpfile, for example with awk (all on
one line):
Windows:
awk "(($2==\"Current\") &&
($4==\"`dbname`\")),(($2==\"Current\") &&
($4!=\"`dbname`\")){print}" fulldumpfile >partdumpfile

Unix:
awk '(($2=="Current") &&
($4=="`dbname`")),(($2=="Current") &&
($4!="`dbname`")){print}' fulldumpfile >partdumpfile

Once you have checked your partdumpfile, you can pipe the
command to mysql (again, all on one line):
awk "(($2==\"Current\") &&
($4==\"`dbname`\")),(($2==\"Current\") &&
($4!=\"`dbname`\")){print}" fulldumpfile | mysql -u user
-ppassword

Good luck
