mysql:database:connect:with-host

Connect to a database on another host.
$ mysql -h ${database_host} ${database_name}
try on your machine

The above command connects to a MySQL server using the specified hostname (-h) and database name (${database_name}). The ${database_host} variable is used to specify the hostname value, which can be either IP address or domain name. When the command is executed, it will prompt for a username and password for authentication purposes. Once authenticated, the user can execute various SQL commands to query or manipulate the database specified by ${database_name}.
