How to use Mysql or MariaDB instead of Sqlite
=============================================
By default Kanboard use Sqlite to stores its data.
However it's possible to use Mysql or MariaDB instead of Sqlite.
By example, it can be useful if you don't want to store any data on the web server itself.
Mysql configuration
-------------------
### Create a database
The first step is to create a database on your Mysql server.
By example, you can do that with the command line mysql client:
```sql
CREATE DATABASE kanboard;
```
### Create a config file
All application constants can be overrided by using a config file at the root of the project.
The second step is to create a config file named `config.php`:
```
.
├── LICENSE
├── common.php
├── ....
├── config.php <== Our config file
├── ....
├── index.php
├── ....
└── vendor
```
### Define Mysql parameters
Inside our config file write those lines:
```php
<?php
// We choose to use Mysql instead of Sqlite
define('DB_DRIVER', 'mysql');
// Mysql parameters
define('DB_USERNAME', 'REPLACE_ME');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'REPLACE_ME');
define('DB_HOSTNAME', 'REPLACE_ME');
define('DB_NAME', 'kanboard');
```
Now, you are ready to use Mysql!
