MariaDB

Add this database from the dashboard

Since Dashboard 1.29.0 and Agent 1.19.0, you can add this database directly from the dashboard (Add database on the agent page), without editing any file. See Adding a Database. The settings described below also apply to the dashboard form.

The agent will use mariadb-dump to perform backups and restore backups.

Configuration

When running portabase agent db add, select mariadb as the database type.

Docker Compose Example

Example with a MariaDB image.

docker-compose.yml

services:
  db-mariadb:
    container_name: db-mariadb
    image: mariadb:latest
    ports:
      - "3311:3306"
    environment:
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=mariadb
      - MYSQL_USER=mariadb
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=changeme
      - MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD=yes
    volumes:
      - mariadb-data:/var/lib/mysql
    networks:
      - portabase

  agent:
    image: portabase/agent:latest
    # ... agent configuration ...
    depends_on:
      - db-mariadb
    networks:
      - portabase

networks:
  portabase:
    external: true

volumes:
  mariadb-data:

If you use localhost as the host (because the agent is on the host machine and not in Docker, or via host-gateway), ensure your database is listening on all interfaces (0.0.0.0) or is accessible from the agent.
