Connecting to Asset containers #

In order to connect from within another container(.env), You will have to use the asset containers name instead of localhost / IP.
Docker will take care of Host-name resolving and makes connection between the containers.

If connecting from outside the container such as any other apps like MySQL Workbench, Datagrip, TablePlus, ...
Then you will have to use localhost / IP.

For all the asset containers, The default username and password will be

USERNAME=dockr
PASSWORD=password

Mysql #

Within the Docker containers #

For Mysql : DB_PORT will be 3306 and its DB_HOST will be dockr_mysql.
