MySQL Provider for the Vapor web framework.

MySQL Provider for Vapor

Adds MySQL support to the Vapor web framework.

import Vapor
import VaporMySQL

let drop = Droplet(providers: [VaporMySQL.Provider.self])

Config

To build, the first place you'll want to look is the Config/ directory. In their, you should create a secrets folder and a nested mysql.json.

Config/
  - mysql.json
    secrets/
      - mysql.json

The secrets folder is under the gitignore and shouldn't be committed.

Here's an example secrets/mysql.json

{
  "host": "z99a0.asdf8c8cx.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com",
  "user": "username",
  "password": "badpassword",
  "database": "databasename",
  "port": "3306",
  "encoding": "utf8"
}

You can also just set a url.

{
    "url": "username:[e-mail]"
}
