Hands-On Swift 5 Microservices Development

Setting up the database

Go ahead and create a new user and a database in your local database setup. If you need a reminder, check out Chapter 3, Getting Started with the Vapor Framework. Name the user service_orders and the database also as service_orders.

To set up the database, all we have to do is the following:

1. Add the following lines to the .env file:

MYSQL_CRED='mysql://service_orders:password@localhost:3306/service_orders?ssl=false'

Make sure you have entered the correct password.

Let's look at the configuration next.
