Installation

Add the following to your composer.json file, in the require section:

"linkorb/database-manager": "~2.0"

Then run composer update to install the new dependency

Checkout the code from Github:

git clone git@github.com:linkorb/database-manager.git
cd database-manager
composer install # install dependencies
./bin/database-manager # list command-line options

Database configuration files

Database connection information is stored in a simple .ini file. Here's a working example:

name = mydb
server = localhost
port = 3306
username = my_username
password = my_password

Note that port key is optional.

Store your database in /share/config/database/[databasename].conf

Command-line options

bin/database-manager connection:config [dbname]

This will load the configuration from /share/config/database/[databasename].conf, and display it on the console.

• Example database .conf file
