Package to run MySQL server inside your Meteor app
Version 1.0.0 breaking change: Default data directory has now changed. If you do not specify a data directory in your
.mysql.jsonfile, you will need to now specify the old default data directory in order to migrate successfully without losing your current databases (or move your data directory to the new default location, see "Configuring the server" section below). Set thedatadirkey to.meteor/mysqldbto maintain the old default data directory.
Currently only supports Linux (32 and 64 bit) and Mac OSX (64 bit). Windows support is expected in the near future.
Add this package to your application to embed a MySQL server:
meteor add numtel:mysql-server
A settings file must be created with the extension of .mysql.json in your application. A file name like myapp.mysql.json is valid.
If a datadir setting is not specified, the MySQL data will default to your application's .meteor/local/mysqldb directory. The meteor reset command will clear the application's database. The directory will be created if it does not exist.
When specifying a datadir setting, the path is relative to your application root.
The binary log directory will be set as binlog child to the datadir. This directory may be excluded from your source code repository or cleared to free space. It is not necessary to manually specify the log_bin setting.
In your .mysql.json file, you may specify a filename containing queries to perform on first installation of the database under the initialize key. These queries will be executed if the data directory is created when the Meteor application is started.
In this array, it may be useful to create the application's database and user.
See test.mysql.json for an example. Except for the initialize queries, all other settings are used to build the my.cnf file. Specifying a port is recommended.
Default settings provide the binary log in row mode, requiring no extra configuration to use the numtel:mysql package. To view the default settings, see index.js in the underlying NPM package.
With the start of you Meteor application, you will notice a new line output to the console:
=> Started MySQL.
The MySQL server is started on the local machine and may be used with the numtel:mysql package by using the following configuration settings:
var liveDb = new LiveMysql({
host: 'localhost',
port: 3509, // As specified in your .mysql.json file
user: 'root', // Default master user
password: '', // Default master password
serverId: 134, // Specify any value other than the server's value (default 1)
minInterval: 200 // Optional minimum query refresh interval (ms)
});MIT
