MariaDB server is a community developed fork of MySQL server. Started by core members of the original MySQL team, MariaDB actively works with outside developers to deliver the most featureful, stable, and sanely licensed open SQL server in the industry.

The startup configuration is specified in the file /etc/my.cnf, and that file in turn includes any files found in the /etc/my.cnf.d directory that end with .cnf.

• DATABASE_URL
• MYSQL_URL
• MYSQL_USER
• MYSQL_PASSWORD
• MYSQL_DATABASE

docker run --rm -it -e MYSQL_URL="mysql://user:password@host:3306/database_name" minidocks/mariadb

docker run --rm -it -e DATABASE_URL="mysql://user:password@host:3306/database_name" minidocks/mariadb

When a container is started for the first time, a new database with the specified name will be created and initialized with the provided configuration variables. Furthermore, it will execute files with extensions .sh, .sql, .sql.gz, .sql.xz and .sql.zst that are found in /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d.
