The most common usage is as a simple proxy service (that is, without additional scripting). For basic
proxy operation, you must specify at least one
MySQL server to connect to by default:
shell> mysql-proxy --proxy-backend-addresses=MySQL.example.com:3306
The default proxy port is 4040, so you can connect to your MySQL server through the proxy by
specifying the host name and port details:
shell> mysql --host=localhost --port=4040
If your server requires authentication information, this will be passed through natively without alteration
by mysql-proxy, so you must also specify the required authentication information:
shell> mysql --host=localhost --port=4040 \
--user=user_name --password=password
You can also connect to a read-only port (which filters out
to the read-only port. By default the host name is the default, and the port is 4042, but you can alter the
host/port information by using the
line option.
For more detailed information on how to use these command-line options, and
general in combination with Lua scripts, see

You can control how MySQL Proxy manipulates and works with the queries and results that are passed
on to the MySQL server through the use of the embedded Lua scripting language. You can find out
