`mylogin-driver` provides a MySQL driver for

[`database/sql`](https://golang.org/pkg/database/sql/).

This is just a wrapper around

[`github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql`](https://github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql) with

a different connection string syntax that allows to read server address and

credentials from `~/.mylogin.cnf`.

About mylogin.cnf:

- 

- 

See also package [`github.com/dolmen-go/mylogin`](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/dolmen-go/mylogin)

that provides low-level access to `~/.mylogin.cnf` reading and writing.

## Usage

```go

import (

    "database/sql"

    _ "github.com/dolmen-go/mylogin-driver/register"

)

db, err := sql.Open("mylogin", "[filepath//]/[]")

```

## Example

Here is an example with the

[public MySQL server provided by ensembl.org](https://www.ensembl.org/info/data/mysql.html).

Create MySQL credentials in a section named `client_ensembl` in `~/.mylogin.cnf`:

```sh

$ mysql_config_editor set -G client_ensembl -h ensembldb.ensembl.org -P 5306 -u anonymous -p

$ cat >main.go <
