# MySQL

For context on getting started with ingestion, check out our [metadata ingestion guide](../README.md).

## Setup

To install this plugin, run `pip install 'acryl-datahub[mysql]'`.

## Capabilities

This plugin extracts the following:

- Metadata for databases, schemas, and tables
- Column types and schema associated with each table
- Table, row, and column statistics via optional [SQL profiling](./sql_profiles.md)

| Capability        | Status | Details                                  | 
|-------------------|--------|------------------------------------------|
| Platform Instance | ✔️     | [link](../../docs/platform-instances.md) |
| Data Containers   | ✔️     |                                          |
| Data Domains      | ✔️     | [link](../../docs/domains.md)            |


## Quickstart recipe

Check out the following recipe to get started with ingestion! See [below](#config-details) for full configuration options.

For general pointers on writing and running a recipe, see our [main recipe guide](../README.md#recipes).

```yml
source:
  type: mysql
  config:
    # Coordinates
    host_port: localhost:3306
    database: dbname

    # Credentials
    username: root
    password: example

sink:
  # sink configs
```

## Config details

Like all SQL-based sources, the MySQL integration supports:
- Stale Metadata Deletion: See [here](./stateful_ingestion.md) for more details on configuration.
- SQL Profiling: See [here](./sql_profiles.md) for more details on configuration.

Note that a `.` is used to denote nested fields in the YAML recipe.
