It’ll store the username and password to the variables $db_username and $db_password. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Emilio J. Rodríguez-Posada Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2014 12:35 PM To: Wikimedia Labs Subject: [Labs-l] Connecting to MySQL in PHP Hello; I need to connect to a MySQL database using PHP. I have a replica.my.cnf that I guess I have to use. What is the best way to connect to MySQL using this file, without exposing the user/pass in the PHP code? There is no help about this in the tutorial.[1] Thanks [1] https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Nova_Resource:Tools/Help _______________________________________________ Labs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/labs-l
