Direct Access to App's mysql database

[tamayers]

Hello! I am having some issues with the underlying data in one of my InvoiceNinja installation. After talking with InvoiceNinja's team, they are telling me that I need to modify some records in the mysql database directly. Is there a way that I can access a Cloudron's apps database from a UI like phpmyadmin that I have running remotely? If so, can someone point in a direction on how to connect?

The MySQL server is not exposed. Are you OK to be able to use the mysql CLI?

You can access the database either
a) Web terminal -> Click the mysql button on the top -> Press enter. This drops you into mysql shell. You can then do 'show tables' etc.

b) Install Cloudron CLI (npm install -g cloudron) on your laptop/PC. Then:

cloudron exec --app ninja.example.com -- bash -c 'mysql --user=${CLOUDRON_MYSQL_USERNAME} --password=${CLOUDRON_MYSQL_PASSWORD} --host=${CLOUDRON_MYSQL_HOST} ${CLOUDRON_MYSQL_DATABASE} -e "SHOW TABLES"';

(If you remove the -e "SHOW TABLES" part, you will get a shell).

Hi!

I have to migrate from a mautic app (outside of cloudron) to the Mautic cloudron app.

In order to do the migration I need to know database name, user and password (I suppose this will be Cloudron's) of the Mautic app in Cloudron.

How can I get the name and user of the database?

Thank you!

@mdreira it's in the environment variables of each installation - just go to the cli of the app and you'll see them there!
