Mysql cheatsheet - Part 2
0 likes2,354 views
This document provides a cheat sheet of common MySQL commands for managing users and permissions. It includes commands for creating users, granting permissions to users, and revoking permissions. The key commands covered are: SELECT user FROM mysql.user to get a list of users. GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES to provide global access to a user. FLUSH PRIVILEGES to reload privileges. GRANT allows assigning specific permissions to a user for a database or table. REVOKE removes a granted permission. DROP USER deletes a user.

GRANT OPTION - allows them to grant or remove other users' privileges
To provide a specific user with a permission, you can use this framework:
GRANT [type of permission] ON [database name].[table name] TO โ[username]โ@'localhostโ;
If you want to give them access to any database or to any table, make sure to put an
asterisk (*) in the place of the database name or table name.
Each time you update or change a permission be sure to use the Flush Privileges
command.
If you need to revoke a permission, the structure is almost identical to granting it:
REVOKE [type of permission] ON [database name].[table name] TO โ[username]โ@โlocalhostโ;
Just as you can delete databases with DROP, you can use DROP to delete a user
altogether:
DROP USER โdemoโ@โlocalhostโ;
To test out your new user, log out by typing
quit
and log back in with this command in terminal:
mysql -u [username]-p
