## Installation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In my situation I am installing MySQL server on a tower with [Ubuntu Server 20.04][Ubuntu Server Download] I have 3 things I know I will need to do in order to have a successful installation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Install Mariadb
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Using the follwing command:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sudo apt install mariadb-server
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I install mariadb/mysql to my system.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Configure host-side firewall
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From here using ufw (uncomplicated firewall) I need to configure the firewall to only respond to requests from my public ip address.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sudo ufw allow for [public ip address] to any port 3306
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Setting up a user on MySQL
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After creating a database and creating a few tables, I created a user and gave the user access to the database and it's tables.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CREATE DATABASE test_database;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
USE test_database;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXIST test_table(
|
||
|
|
var1 TEXT NOT NULL,
|
||
|
|
var2 INT AUTOINCREMENT,
|
||
|
|
);
|
||
|
|
4
|
||
|
|
CREATE USER 'user'@'ip address';IDENTIFIED BY Password('password');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON 'test_database'.* TO 'user'@'ip address';
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Conclusion
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By using the user credintials that I created in my MySQL server I can now use modules like PyMySQL, or SqlAlchemy in my python projects in the future.
