First, you need to install the plugin to your project:

# with npm
npm install --save-dev @modus/gimbal-plugin-mysql

# or with yarn
yarn add --dev @modus/gimbal-plugin-mysql

Next, you need to add the plugin to your Gimbal configuration file:

YAML

plugins:
  - '@modus/gimbal-plugin-mysql'

JSON

{
  "plugins": ["@modus/gimbal-plugin-mysql"]
}

JavaScript

modules.exports = {
  plugins: ['@modus/gimbal-plugin-mysql'],
};

Configuration

In order to connect to a MySQL server, you must provide the host, password, and username via environment variables:

• GIMBAL_MYSQL_HOST - Defaults to localhost, must be the host location of the server.
• GIMBAL_MYSQL_USERNAME - Defaults to root, must be the username to connect to the server with.
• GIMBAL_MYSQL_PASSWORD - Must be the password of the user in order to connect to the server.

@modus/gimbal-plugin-last-value

Allows for getting and saving last value reports. To enable this support, you need to set lastValue on the plugin config:

plugins:
  - plugin: '@modus/gimbal-plugin-mysql'
    lastValue: true

By default, this will use gimbal as the database and gimbal_archive table. To change these values, pass an object to the lastValue config:

plugins:
  - plugin: '@modus/gimbal-plugin-mysql'
    lastValue:
      database: my-database
      table: test_runs

The database must exist. If the table does not exist, the follow SQL will be executed:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS <table_name> (command VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL, date DATETIME NOT NULL, report LONGTEXT NOT NULL) ENGINE=INNODB;
