Setup MySQL

Our instance of VinylDNS currently stores data in MySQL.

• zone - holds zones
• zone_access - holds user or group identifiers that have access to zones
• batch_change - holds batch changes (multiple changes across zones in a single batch)
• single_change - holds individual changes within a batch_change
• user - holds user information, including access keys and secrets
• record-set - holds record data

Setting up the database

VinylDNS uses Flyway to manage SQL migrations. This means that any database changes, including creating the database, adding tables, etc. are all automatically applied when VinylDNS starts up. You do not need to do anything other than giving access to VinylDNS API from your MySQL server instance. You can view the database schema and migrations in the mysql module db/migration folder

VinylDNS uses HikariCP for a high-speed connection pool.

Configuring MySQL

Before you can configure MySQL, make note of the host, username, and password that you will be using. Follow the API Database Configuration to complete the setup.
