    Hi everyone
    Currently, when using Centmin Mod, we have to use phpmyadmin (beta)
    However, it is quite difficult to install for beginners.
    So I recommend integrating phpmyadmin into the Centmin menu. Thanks

    If I'm not wrong, before install phpMyAdmin, we must first recompile PHP and install Development Tools (The first question in option 5)?

    You don't have to use phpmyadmin. We always use Adminer to work with our centminmod databases over the web.

    Adminer - Database management in a single PHP file

    I think it is a good idea to have a menu: Addons

    and be able to run all addon scripts from there and avoid navigating to the addons folder from cli and run them....

    Like:

    Addons
    -Phpmyadmin
    --Install
    --Uninstall

    etc

    Also the users will never have to go to the forums and search at addons section for everything that may need to install. They will know from that menu which addons are available and be able to use without manual running any cli command...

    I personally don't like to use phpmyadmin, it is just another app that can get compromised, that has to be keep up to date and secure. Not worth the trouble if you ask me.

    I just use sql client over SSH, for example HeidiSQL. It has all the functionalities of phpmyadmin that I need.
    Just my two cents, I understand everyone has different preference

    welcome @unikey to Centmin Mod Community.

    Yes phpmyadmin is deliberately separate addon outlined at https://centminmod.com/addon_phpmyadmin.html and not within centmin.sh menu so not to make to it too easy to install as it's one possible vector for compromise if you have web facing access to your MySQL databases. Reading the security and other info at https://centminmod.com/addon_phpmyadmin.html before install at least also informs users of how Centmin Mod differs in it's setup, configuration and updating of phpmyadmin compared to other regular phpmyadmin installs. A menu option wouldn't get folks to read that extra info first usually.

    For most folks creating database user/database names can be done more safely via addons/mysqladmin_shell.sh outlined at https://community.centminmod.com/threads/mysqladmin_shell-sh-shell-based-addon.543/

    Example for createuserdb run where you pass on command line the database name, mysql username and mysql password - in this example creating db name = xdb1, db user = xdbuser1 and db pass = xdbpass1
    Code (Text):
    ./mysqladmin_shell.sh createuserdb xdb1 xdbuser1 xdbpass1
--------------------------------------------------------------
Basic MySQL Admin - create mysql user & databases
--------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------

Grants for xdb1@localhost
GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO 'xdb1'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD '*6D7525873C093916CA45CF6A9F12142EFC4C5F38'
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, INDEX, ALTER, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, LOCK TABLES, EXECUTE ON `createuserdb`.* TO 'xdb1'@'localhost'

Ok: MySQL user: xdb1 MySQL database: createuserdb created successfully

    no need for public web facing interface such as phpmyadmin or adminer etc :)
