✨ Set up the MySql Database

Note: Make sure your Mysql server is properly installed and accessible.

Step 1 - Create the MySql Database to be used by the app

Create a new MySql database
Create a new user and assign full privilegies (read/write)

Step 2 - Edit the .env to match your MySql DB credentials. Make sure DB_ENGINE is set to mysql.

DB_ENGINE: mysql
DB_NAME: default value = appseed_db
DB_HOST: default value = localhost
DB_PORT: default value = 3306
DB_USERNAME: default value = appseed_db_usr
DB_PASS: default value = pass

Here is a sample:

# .env sample

DEBUG=False                 # False enables the MySql Persistence

DB_ENGINE=mysql             # Database Driver
DB_NAME=appseed_db          # Database Name
DB_USERNAME=appseed_db_usr  # Database User
DB_PASS=<STRONG_PASS>       # Password 
DB_HOST=localhost           # Database HOST, default is localhost 
DB_PORT=3306                # MySql port, default = 3306
