Create database
I frequently create database with utf8mb4 character set:
CREATE DATABASE 'mydb' CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_general_ci; GRANT ALL ON 'mydb'.* TO 'username'@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
or
CREATE SCHEMA 'mydb' CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_general_ci; GRANT ALL ON 'mydb'.* TO 'username'@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Create user
Create user and give privilege to it
create user 'username'@localhost identified by 'password'; grant all privileges on *.* to username@localhost;
or
GRANT [type of permission] ON [database name].[table name] TO ‘[username]’@'localhost’;
Change user’s password
Replace the password with the password that you want to use.
MySQL 5.7.6 and later:
ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'MyNewPass';
MySQL 5.7.5 and earlier:
SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('MyNewPass');
Here is a short list of other common possible permissions that users can enjoy.
- ALL PRIVILEGES- as we saw previously, this would allow a MySQL user all access to a designated database (or if no database is selected, across the system)
- CREATE- allows them to create new tables or databases
- DROP- allows them to them to delete tables or databases
- DELETE- allows them to delete rows from tables
- INSERT- allows them to insert rows into tables
- SELECT- allows them to use the Select command to read through databases
- UPDATE- allow them to update table rows
- GRANT OPTION- allows them to grant or remove other users’ privileges
