README

Using a MySQL server via an SSH tunnel.

Notice

SSH Tunnel does not currently support requesting the SSH password for the private key provided, so make sure your SSH key does not require a password.

If you are not sure whether your SSH key pair requires a passphrase, you can create a new SSH key pair

# generate key pair without passphrase
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa_no_pass -N ""

# copy public key to remote server
ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa_no_pass.pub user@host

Make sure that your PHP application has the authorization to access the private SSH key file

Installation

Use Composer to install:

composer require bannerstop/tunneled-mysql

Usage

$tunnelBuilder = new \Bannerstop\TunneledMysql\TunnelBuilder(
    new \Bannerstop\TunneledMysql\SSH\SSHCredentials(
        'ssh.example.host',
        'user',
        'path/to/private_key'
    ),
    new \Bannerstop\TunneledMysql\MySQL\MySQLCredentials(
        'username',
        'pass',
        'dbname'
    ),
    (new \Bannerstop\TunneledMysql\Lib\GetAvailablePort())->execute()
);
$mysql = $tunnelBuilder->build()->run();

$query = $mysql->query('SELECT * FROM example LIMIT 1');
print_r($query->fetch());
