Testing MySQL/MariaDB/Percona versions with Docker

Giuseppe Maxia has provided some great MySQL docker images . Percona and MariaDB also provide version via Docker Hub. In an attempt to have a consistent means of launching these different images I created the following convenience functions.

  1. Install docker for your OS. See Official Docker installation instructions . 
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ronaldbradford/mysql-docker-minimal/master/dockerhelper.sh







$ . ./dockerhelper.sh
Docker Registered functions are:  docker_mysql, docker_percona, docker_mariadb


$ docker_mysql
ERROR: Specify a MySQL version to launch. Valid versions are 5.0 5.1 5.5 5.6 5.7 8.0
$ docker_percona
ERROR: Specify a Percona version to launch. Valid versions are 5.5 5.6 5.7
$ docker_mariadb
ERROR: Specify a MariaDB version to launch. Valid versions are 5.5 10.0 10.1
