* Mac OS X (Using homebrew)
Tested on:
* Debian 5.0, 6.0
* Ubuntu 10.04-12.04

Cookbooks
---------
Requires Opscode's openssl cookbook for secure password generation.
See _Attributes_ and _Usage_ for more information.
The RubyGem installation in the `mysql::ruby` recipe requires a C
compiler and Ruby development headers to be installed in order to
build the mysql gem.
Requires `homebrew`
[cookbook](http://community.opscode.com/cookbooks/homebrew) on Mac OS
X.
Resources and Providers
=======================
The LWRP that used to ship as part of this cookbook has been
refactored into the
[database](http://community.opscode.com/cookbooks/database)
cookbook. Please see the README for details on updated usage.
Attributes
==========
See the `attributes/server.rb` or `attributes/client.rb` for default
values. Several attributes have values that vary based on the node's
platform and version.
* `node['mysql']['client']['packages']` - An array of package names
that should be installed on "client" systems. This can be modified,
e.g., to specify packages for Percona.
* `node['mysql']['server']['packages']` - An array of package names
that should be installed on "server" systems. This can be modified,
e.g., to specify packages for Percona.
* `node['mysql']['auto-increment-increment']` -
auto-increment-increment value in my.cnf
* `node['mysql']['auto-increment-offset]` - auto-increment-offset
value in my.cnf
* `node['mysql']['basedir']` - Base directory where MySQL is installed
* `node['mysql']['bind_address']` - Listen address for MySQLd
* `node['mysql']['conf_dir']` - Location for mysql conf directory
* `node['mysql']['confd_dir']` - Location for mysql conf.d style
include directory
* `node['mysql']['data_dir']` - Location for mysql data directory
* `node['mysql']['ec2_path']` - location of mysql data_dir on EC2
nodes
* `node['mysql']['grants_path']` - Path where the grants.sql should be
written
* `node['mysql']['mysqladmin_bin']` - Path to the mysqladmin binary
* `node['mysql']['old_passwords']` - Sets the `old_passwords` value in
my.cnf.
* `node['mysql']['pid_file']` - Path to the mysqld.pid file
* `node['mysql']['port']` - Liten port for MySQLd
* `node['mysql']['reload_action']` - Action to take when mysql conf
files are modified. Also allows "reload" and "none".
* `node['mysql']['root_group']` - The default group of the "root" user
* `node['mysql']['service_name']` - The name of the mysqld service
* `node['mysql']['socket']` - Path to the mysqld.sock file
* `node['mysql']['use_upstart']` - Whether to use upstart for the
service provider
* `mysql['root_network_acl']` - Set define the network the root user will be able to login from, default is nil
Performance and other "tunable" attributes are under the
`node['mysql']['tunable']` attribute, corresponding to the same-named
parameter in my.cnf, and the default values are used. See
`attributes/server.rb`.
By default, a MySQL installation has an anonymous user, allowing anyone
to log into MySQL without having to have a user account created for
them. This is intended only for testing, and to make the installation
go a bit smoother. You should remove them before moving into a
production environment.
* `node['mysql']['remove_anonymous_users']` - Remove anonymous users
Normally, root should only be allowed to connect from 'localhost'. This
ensures that someone cannot guess at the root password from the network.
* `node['mysql']['allow_remote_root']` - If true Sets root access from '%'. If false deletes any non-localhost root users.
By default, MySQL comes with a database named 'test' that anyone can
access. This is also intended only for testing, and should be removed
before moving into a production environment. This will also drop any user privileges to the test databae and any DB named test_% .
* `node['mysql']['remove_test_database']` - Delete the test database and access to it.
The following attributes are randomly generated passwords handled in
the `mysql::server` recipe, using the OpenSSL cookbook's
`secure_password` helper method. These are set using the `set_unless`
node attribute method, which allows them to be easily overridden e.g.
in a role.
* `node['mysql']['server_root_password']` - Set the server's root
password
* `node['mysql']['server_repl_password']` - Set the replication user
'repl' password
* `node['mysql']['server_debian_password']` - Set the debian-sys-maint
user password
## Windows Specific
The following attributes are specific to Windows platforms.
* `node['mysql']['client']['version']` - The version of MySQL
connector to install.
* `node['mysql']['client']['arch']` - Force 32 bit to work with the
mysql gem
* `node['mysql']['client']['package_file']` - The MSI file for the
mysql connector.
* `node['mysql']['client']['url']` - URL to download the mysql
connector.
* `node['mysql']['client']['packages']` - Similar to other platforms,
this is the name of the client package.
* `node['mysql']['client']['basedir']` - Base installation location
* `node['mysql']['client']['lib_dir']` - Libraries under the base location
* `node['mysql']['client']['bin_dir']` - binary directory under base location
* `node['mysql']['client']['ruby_dir']` - location where the Ruby
binaries will be
Usage
=====
On client nodes, use the client (or default) recipe:
{ "run_list": ["recipe[mysql::client]"] }
This will install the MySQL client libraries and development headers
on the system.
On nodes which may use the `database` cookbook's mysql resources, also
use the ruby recipe. This installs the mysql RubyGem in the Ruby
environment Chef is using via `chef_gem`.
{ "run_list": ["recipe[mysql::client]", "recipe[mysql::ruby]"] }
If you need to install the mysql Ruby library as a package for your
system, override the client packages attribute in your node or role.
For example, on an Ubuntu system:
{
"mysql": {
"client": {
"packages": ["mysql-client", "libmysqlclient-dev","ruby-mysql"]
}
}
}
This creates a resource object for the package and does the
installation before other recipes are parsed. You'll need to have the
C compiler and such (ie, build-essential on Ubuntu) before running the
recipes, but we already do that when installing Chef :-).
On server nodes, use the server recipe:
{ "run_list": ["recipe[mysql::server]"] }
On Debian and Ubuntu, this will preseed the mysql-server package with
the randomly generated root password in the recipe file. On other
platforms, it simply installs the required packages. It will also
create an SQL file, `/etc/mysql/grants.sql`, that will be used to set up
grants for the root, repl and debian-sys-maint users.
The recipe will perform a `node.save` unless it is run under
`chef-solo` after the password attributes are used to ensure that in
the event of a failed run, the saved attributes would be used.
On EC2 nodes, use the `server_ec2` recipe and the mysql data dir will
be set up in the ephmeral storage.
{ "run_list": ["recipe[mysql::server_ec2]"] }
When the `ec2_path` doesn't exist we look for a mounted filesystem
(eg, EBS) and move the data_dir there.
The client recipe is already included by server and 'default' recipes.

Chef Solo Note
==============
These node attributes are stored on the Chef
server when using `chef-client`. Because `chef-solo` does not
connect to a server or save the node object at all, to have the same
passwords persist across `chef-solo` runs, you must specify them in
the `json_attribs` file used. For example:
{
"mysql": {
"server_root_password": "iloverandompasswordsbutthiswilldo",
"server_repl_password": "iloverandompasswordsbutthiswilldo",
"server_debian_password": "iloverandompasswordsbutthiswilldo"
},
"run_list":["recipe[mysql::server]"]
}
