<p>MySQL is a well known free, open-source relational database service, and it's great. MariaDB is just MySQL (a fork of it), but better.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Install MariaDB</h2>
|
|
<pre><code>sudo apt install mariadb-server</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Secure Install/Setup</h2>
|
|
<pre><code>sudo mysql_secure_installation</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Create Admin user</h2>
|
|
<pre><code>sudo mysql</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<pre><code>GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'admin'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password' WITH GRANT OPTION;</code></pre>
|
|
<pre><code>FLUSH PRIVILEGES;</code></pre>
|
|
<pre><code>exit;</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Test it works</h2>
|
|
|
|
<h2>(Optional) Make it easier to access on command line</h2>
|
|
<p>If you're working with a terminal, when calling <code>mysql</code> you'll need to enter a password each time. You can store the passwordwith a special .cnf file, making it faster to get into writing SQL.</p>
|
|
<p>Create/Edit the file with your editor of choice (mine's vim)</p>
|
|
<pre><code>vim ~/.my.cnf</code></pre>
|
|
<p>Add the following, with your credentials</p>
|
|
<pre><code>[mysql]
|
|
user=<USERNAME>
|
|
password=<PASSWORD></code></pre>
|
|
<p>The above can be used for mysqldump, mysqladmin, and others too, by replacing the <code>[mysql]</code> block</p>
