mysql:database:connect:on:another:host
Connect to a database on another host.
$ mysql -h ${database_host} ${database_name}
try on your machine
This command is invoking the mysql command-line client and specifying two parameters:
-
-h ${database_host}
: This sets the host that the client should try to connect to the MySQL server on. ${database_host} is a placeholder variable that should be replaced with the actual hostname or IP address of the MySQL server. -
${database_name}
: This specifies the name of the database that the client should connect to. ${database_name} is a placeholder variable that should be replaced with the actual name of the MySQL database.
