# MySQL Database, User/Password Creator

This Script helps you to create a new MySQL database with specific user & password with just a single command.

## INSTALL

To install, simply download the script file and give it the executable permission.

```

curl -0 https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MagePsycho/mysql-user-db-creator-bash-script/master/src/mysql-db-user-creator.sh -o mysql-db-user-creator.sh

chmod +x mysql-db-user-creator.sh

```

To make it system wide command

```

sudo mv mysql-db-user-creator.sh /usr/local/bin/mysql-db-user-creator

```

## USAGE

### To display help

```

sudo ./mysql-db-user-creator.sh --help

```

In General, basic usage

```

./mysql-db-user-creator.sh [--host=""] --database="" [--user=""] [--pass=""]

```

**Notes**:  

- The only required parameter is `database` name. 

- Default parameter values:  

| Parameter | Default Value |

|-|-|

| `host` | localhost |

| `user` | same as database name |

| `password` | randomly generated |

And MySQL credentials for new db/user creation will be taken from the MySQL config file `~/.my.cnf`.  

If you don't have one, you can simply create a `.my.cnf` file in home directory, with

```

[client]

host=localhost

user=[your-db-user]

password=[your-db-pass]

```

*If `~/.my.cnf` doesn't exist, you will be prompted for the root password. For an automated enviroment it's recommended to make use of MySQL config file.*

### To Create Db along with specified User & Pass (By passing all parameters explicitly)

```

./mysql-db-user-creator.sh --host=192.168.1.55 --database=new-db-name --user=new-user --pass=some-strong-pass

```

### To Create Db with User & Pass (By passing only required parameter)

```

./mysql-create-db-user.sh --database=bash_db2

```

*In this case default values will be used for missing parameters (see above)*
