## Purpose:
|
|
The db.mysql module can be used to develop software that connects to the popular open source
|
|
MySQL or MariaDB database servers.
|
|
|
|
### Local setup of a development server:
|
|
To run the mysql module tests, or if you want to just experiment, you can use the following
|
|
command to start a development version of MySQL using docker:
|
|
```sh
|
|
docker run -p 3306:3306 --name some-mysql -e MYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=1 -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD= -d mysql:latest
|
|
```
|
|
The above command will start a server instance without any password for its root account,
|
|
available to mysql client connections, on tcp port 3306.
|
|
|
|
You can test that it works by doing: `mysql -uroot -h127.0.0.1` .
|
|
You should see a mysql shell (use `exit` to end the mysql client session).
|
|
|
|
Use `docker container stop some-mysql` to stop the server.
|
|
|
|
Use `docker container rm some-mysql` to remove it completely, after it is stopped.
|
|
|
|
### Installation of development dependencies:
|
|
For Linux, you need to install `MySQL development` package and `pkg-config`.
|
|
|
|
For Windows, install [the installer](https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/) ,
|
|
then copy the `include` and `lib` folders to `<V install directory>\thirdparty\mysql`.
|
|
|
|
### Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
If you encounter weird errors (your program just exits right away, without
|
|
printing any messages, even though you have `println('hi')` statements in your
|
|
`fn main()`), when trying to run a program that does `import db.mysql` on windows, you
|
|
may need to copy the .dll file: `thirdparty/mysql/lib/libmysql.dll`, into the folder
|
|
of the executable too (it should be right next to the .exe file).
|
|
|
|
This is a temporary workaround, until we have a more permanent solution, or at least
|
|
more user friendly errors for that situation.
|
|
|
|
## Basic Usage
|
|
|
|
```v oksyntax
|
|
import db.mysql
|
|
|
|
// Create connection
|
|
mut connection := mysql.Connection{
|
|
username: 'root'
|
|
dbname: 'mysql'
|
|
}
|
|
// Connect to server
|
|
connection.connect()?
|
|
// Change the default database
|
|
connection.select_db('db_users')?
|
|
// Do a query
|
|
get_users_query_result := connection.query('SELECT * FROM users')?
|
|
// Get the result as maps
|
|
for user in get_users_query_result.maps() {
|
|
// Access the name of user
|
|
println(user['name'])
|
|
}
|
|
// Free the query result
|
|
get_users_query_result.free()
|
|
// Close the connection if needed
|
|
connection.close()
|
|
``` |
