Check if default database is available.

Source: R/default.R

RMySQL examples and tests connect to a database defined by the rs-dbi group in ~/.my.cnf. This function checks if that database is available, and if not, displays an informative message.

mysqlHasDefault()

Examples

if (mysqlHasDefault()) {
  db <- dbConnect(RMySQL::MySQL(), dbname = "test")
  dbListTables(db)
  dbDisconnect(db)
}
#> Could not initialise default MySQL database. If MySQL is running
#> check that you have a ~/.my.cnf file that contains a [rs-dbi] section
#> describing how to connect to a test database.
