The database creation panel for PostgreSQL or MySQL database now includes an advanced settings section that is closed by default. The advanced settings include whether to set a custom database name and whether to use a custom configuration file.
Ephemeral automatically generates a default databaseName
based on the name
field. name
is used for the database server, and to identify the database in the list, and databaseName
is the name of the database or schema. databaseName
strips any spaces and invalid characters from name
. After the database is created, databaseName
cannot be changed.
If the generated name is too short, Ephemeral uses a fallback - mydb
for MySQL and postgres
for PostgreSQL. Generated names never exceed 64 characters for MySQL and 63 characters for PostgreSQL.
