The command "mycli" is a command-line interface (CLI) tool used to connect and interact with MySQL databases. It allows users to execute SQL queries and manage database operations via the command line. In the given command, "${database_name}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the database you want to connect to. By substituting the actual database name in place of the placeholder, you can execute the mycli command to connect to that specific database. For example, if your desired database name is "sample_db", you would run the command as: mycli sample_db This would launch the mycli tool and connect to the "sample_db" database, allowing you to start running SQL queries and managing the database through the command line.
