This extension adds the MySQL dialect to the JustyBase Core extension and integrates with the shared connection UI, schema browser, SQL execution flow, and dialect registry.
Requirements
Install the core extension first: JustyBase Core
VS Code Desktop
Network access to your MySQL instance
What This Extension Adds
MySQL connection type in the shared login panel
MySQL runtime integration via the mysql (or mysql2) package
Metadata queries for databases, schemas, tables, views, procedures, functions, and column lookup
MySQL SQL authoring profile and dialect registration
DDL generation for tables and supporting object types where available
Current Runtime Notes
MySQL authentication and connection options are provided through the shared connection form.
Schema browsing focuses on user databases and catalog objects that are safe to expose in the explorer.
The optional package exposes DDL and authoring features, but other database-specific workflows remain intentionally conservative.
Installation Order
Marketplace or manual VSIX installation should end with both extensions installed:
Install JustyBase Core
Install JustyBase MySQL Support
JustyBase MySQL Support can declare extensionDependencies on the core extension so VS Code can resolve the dependency automatically in Marketplace scenarios.
Development Notes
From extensions\\mysql:
npm install
npm run check-types
npm run build
The extension bundle may externalize mysql/mysql2, so the package should keep the runtime dependency available when running in a development or packaged environment.
