# Connect to MySQL inside of a Docker container
|
|
|
|
There may come a time when developing or managing a Monica instance that you
|
|
would like to connect directly to the MySQL database being used.
|
|
|
|
For example you may want to
|
|
- alter test data
|
|
- generate custom metrics
|
|
- ...
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
1. Stop your Monica and MySQL containers if they are running
|
|
1. Bind port 3306 in your container to 3306 on your host machine
|
|
1. Add `EXPOSE 3306:3306` to your `Dockerfile` under `EXPOSE 80:80`
|
|
1. Add a `ports` node under `mysql` in `docker-compose.yml` with a `3306:3306` entry
|
|
1. Start your containers with `docker-compose up`, wait for them to spin up
|
|
1. Connect to the database via a MySQL client (CLI, GUI, etc.)

## Sequel Pro (macOS)
|
|
|
|
You can install Sequel Pro from [the website](http://www.sequelpro.com/) or via
|
|
`brew cask install sequel-pro` if you have homebrew cask installed.
|
|
|
|
Connect to the database using the information in your `.env` file.
|
|
In this example image we are using the default values.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If that is successful you are now connected and can execute queries, look at schemas, etc.
