MySQL Native Connections

This release (v1.7+) we're introducing mysql native passwordless connections.

This new type of connection allows connecting to a database with any mysql client, from IDE's to applications.

System administrators have the capability of configuring database credentials without having to expose to end users.

To begin it's very easy:

# start hoop locally
hoop start
# create a new mysql instance
docker run --rm \
    -p 3306:3306 \
    --name mysql \
    -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=123 
    mysql:8

Visit THIS LINK after to create the mysql connection

Then try to connect with hoop:

hoop connect mysqldb --port 3307
# connect using a mysql client
mysql -h 0 --port 3307

That's all for today, check it out our documentation to know more.
