Create user in mysql

After installing mysql database in our system first we login into database through root user and password. By this user credential we can do any operational tasks (like create a database, create a table, insert data into tables, update data into tables, delete row from the table, drop a table, delete a database) on our database as root user is a superuser. But in some organization there is a restriction for these operation tasks as a normal user. In that case grant privileges plays an important role to restricts these users providing privileges for doing these operational tasks. After creating the user into the mysql database to show all users in mysql we need to execute the below command to view all the users in mysql database. mysql> SELECT * from mysql.user;

How to grant privileges for MySQL user

We can restrict a user to operate on database by granting privileges . Case 1) suppose we have an user techrideradmin and we want to give him full privileges by which this user can do any operational tasks on the database. To do this we need to execute the below command. mysql> grant all privileges on *.* to 'techrideradmin'@'localhost' identified by 'newpassword'; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) In the above command first * denotes the database name and the second * denotes the table name. we are using * that means this user has full privileges (can access all databases and tables) Case 2) suppose we have one database called techrideradmin and one table into it called student . If we want to give permission for the particular database and table we need to execute the below command. mysql> grant all privileges on techrideradmin.student to 'techrideradmin'@'localhost' identified by 'newpassword'; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec) Case 3) If we want to allow this user for the remote host we can use the below command. Suppose my server ip address 192.168.137.5 and my workstation ip address 192.168.137.1 . we want to access the database using my workstation for do this we need to execute the below command. mysql> grant all privileges on techrideradmin.student to 'techrideradmin'@'192.168.137.5' identified by 'newpassword'; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) There are different type of privileges 1)ALL PRIVILEGES----Permit full permission to user. 2)CREATE--------------Give permission to create database and table. 3)SELECT--------------Give permission to view the details of the table data. 4)UPDATE--------------Give permission to update the data into the table 5)INSERT---------------Give permission to insert data into table. 6)DELETE---------------Give permission to delete data from table. 7)DROP-----------------Give permission to drop table and database.

REVOKE PRIVILEGE FROM USER

To revoke the privileges for the mysql user we need to execute the below command. mysql> revoke all privileges on *.* from 'techrideradmin'@'localhost' identified by 'newpassword'; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) After executing the above command all privileges has been revoked from this user.

Delete user in mysql

Now we want to delete user(techriderradmin) from mysql database. To delete this user we need to execute the below command. After executing the below command this user has been dropped forever from the database. mysql> drop user 'techrideradmin'@'localhost'; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
