Connect to the MySQL on Docker with CMD
I connect to the bash into the running MySQL container:
$ docker exec -t -icontainer_mysql_name/bin/bash
-i is the shortcut for --interactive option. This options is used for keep STDIN open even if not attached
-t is the shortcut for --tty option, used to allocate a pseudo-TTY
I run MySQL client from bash MySQL container:
$ mysql -uroot -proot
-u is shortcut for --user=name option, used to define user for login if not current user.
-p is shortcut for -password[=name] option, used to define password to use when connecting to server. If password is not given it’s asked from the tty.
or
$ docker exec -t -i container_mysql_name /bin/bash -c "mysql -uroot -proot"
