MariaDB

MariaDB is a drop-in replacement for MySQL, and ProtonAuctions treats it exactly the same. If you run MariaDB, you connect to it with the MySQL settings.

Create the database

CREATE DATABASE protonauctions;CREATE USER 'protonuser'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'a-strong-password';GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON protonauctions.* TO 'protonuser'@'%';FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Copy

Point ProtonAuctions at it

Use type: mysql in the database block, even though the server is MariaDB. The same driver connects to both:

database:  type: mysql  address: your-database-host  port: 3306  database: protonauctions  username: protonuser  password: a-strong-password

Copy

Everything else works just as it does with MySQL, including sharing one auction house across a network. See MySQL and How To Setup.
