Connecting To Your Database


In order to log into MySQL we must pass information to the MySQL client program when we start it.

This is done with the following commands and syntax.

c:mysqlbinmysql -u <mysql_username> -p <password> <database name>

The name of the program (mysql) is followed by the User flag (-u), the Password (-p) and finally the name of the database.

c:mysqlbinmysql -u yourUserName -p mypass databaseName

If we omit the password but still leave the password flag (-p), you will be prompted for it.

$ mysql -u yourUserName -p yourDatabaseName
Enter password:

You could also omit the name of the database as well.

$ mysql -u yourUserName -p
Enter password:

You could choose to select a specific database if your user has privileges on different databases.

mysql> use yourDatabaseName
Database changed
