### MySQL

#### Internal MySQL Server

> **Warning**
>
> The internal mysql server will soon be removed from the image.
> Please use a linked [mysql](#linking-to-mysql-container) or
> [postgresql](#linking-to-postgresql-container) container instead.
> Or else connect with an external [mysql](#external-mysql-server) or

This docker image is configured to use a MySQL database backend. The database connection can be configured using environment variables. If not specified, the image will start a mysql server internally and use it. However in this case, the data stored in the mysql database will be lost if the container is stopped/deleted. To avoid this you should mount a volume at /var/lib/mysql.
