PlanetScale

This is the implementation of the PlanetScale data handler for MindsDB.

PlanetScale is a MySQL-compatible, serverless database platform.

Implementation

This handler is implemented by extending the MySQL data handler.

The required arguments to establish a connection are as follows:

• user is the database user.
• password is the database password.
• host is the host name, IP address, or URL.
• port is the port used to make TCP/IP connection.
• database is the database name.

If you installed MindsDB locally via pip, you need to install all handler dependencies manually. To do so, go to the handler’s folder (mindsdb/integrations/handlers/planetscale_handler) and run this command: pip install -r requirements.txt.

Usage

In order to make use of this handler and connect to the PlanetScale database in MindsDB, the following syntax can be used:

CREATE DATABASE planetscale_datasource
WITH
  ENGINE = 'planet_scale',
  PARAMETERS = {
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": 3306,
    "user": "planetscale_user",
    "password": "password",
    "database": "planetscale_db"
  };

You can use this established connection to query your table as follows:

SELECT *
FROM planetscale_datasource.my_table;
