# Database Cookbook

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/chef-cookbooks/database.svg?branch=master)](http://travis-ci.org/chef-cookbooks/database) [![Cookbook Version](http://img.shields.io/cookbook/v/database.svg)](https://supermarket.chef.io/cookbooks/database)

The main highlight of this cookbook is the `database` and `database_user` resources for managing databases and database users in a RDBMS. Providers for MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQL Server are also provided, see usage documentation below.

## DEPRECATION

This cookbook has been deprecated. The original intent was to abstract database implementation details away from the end user. In hindsight this was a mistake as it is difficult / impossible to make a generic interface for databases that works accross all systems. Instead we plan to move the individual providers into their respective cookbooks (mysql, postgresql, sqlite, sql_server) where they can fully utilize the feature set of the underlying DB systems.

## Requirements

### Platforms

- Debian / Ubuntu derivatives
- RHEL derivatives
- Fedora

### Chef

- Chef 12.1+

### Cookbooks

- postgresql

## Resources/Providers

These resources aim to expose an abstraction layer for interacting with different RDBMS in a general way. Currently the cookbook ships with providers for MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQL Server. Please see specific usage in the **Example** sections below. The providers use specific Ruby gems installed under Chef's Ruby environment to execute commands and carry out actions. These gems will need to be installed before the providers can operate correctly. Specific notes for each RDBS flavor:

- MySQL: leverages the `mysql2` gem, which can be installed with the `mysql2_chef_gem` resource prior to use (available on the Supermarket). You must depend on the `mysql2_chef_gem` cookbook, then use a `mysql2_chef_gem` resource to install it. The resource allows the user to select MySQL client library versions, as well as optionally select MariaDB libraries.

- PostgreSQL: leverages the `pg` gem which is installed as part of the `postgresql::ruby` recipe. You must declare `include_recipe "database::postgresql"` to include this.

- SQL Server: leverages the `tiny_tds` gem which is installed as part of the `sql_server::client` recipe.

- SQLite: leverages the `sqlite3` gem which is installed as part of the `database::sqlite` recipe. You must declare `include_recipe "database::sqlite"` to include this.

### database

Manage databases in a RDBMS. Use the proper shortcut resource depending on your RDBMS: `mysql_database`, `postgresql_database`, `sql_server_database` or `sqlite_database`.

#### Actions

- `:create`: create a named database
- `:drop`: drop a named database
- `:query`: execute an arbitrary query against a named database

#### Attribute Parameters

- database_name: name attribute. Name of the database to interact with
- connection: hash of connection info. valid keys include `:host`, `:port`, `:username`, and `:password`

- only for MySQL DB*:

- `:flags` (see `Mysql2::Client@@default_query_options[:connect_flags]`)
- `:default_file`, `:default_group` (see )

- only for PostgreSQL: `:database` (overwrites parameter `database_name`)

- not used for SQLlite

- sql: string of sql or a block that executes to a string of sql, which will be executed against the database. used by `:query` action only

- The database cookbook uses the `mysql2` gem.

> "The value of host may be either a host name or an IP address. If host is NULL or the string "127.0.0.1", a connection to the local host is assumed. For Windows, the client connects using a shared-memory connection, if the server has shared-memory connections enabled. Otherwise, TCP/IP is used. For a host value of "." on Windows, the client connects using a named pipe, if the server has named-pipe connections enabled. If named-pipe connections are not enabled, an error occurs."

If you specify a `:socket` key and are using the mysql_service resource to set up the MySQL service, you'll need to specify the path in the form `/var/run/mysql-/mysqld.sock`.

#### Providers

- `Chef::Provider::Database::Mysql`: shortcut resource `mysql_database`
- `Chef::Provider::Database::Postgresql`: shortcut resource `postgresql_database`
- `Chef::Provider::Database::SqlServer`: shortcut resource `sql_server_database`
- `Chef::Provider::Database::Sqlite`: shortcut resource `sqlite_database`
