coip/perseverare

threw this together to make sure go-mysql-driver played well enough integrating against a managed mariaDB hosted on Azure, there were two gotchas

usage: replace the ${tokens} below to vet

$ go get https://github.com/coip/perseverare
$  username=${userID} \
    password=${password} \
    host=${servername}.mariadb.database.azure.com \
    default_schema=${default_schema} \
    perseverare

the leading space in above snippet is intentional*, will (~typically) allow performing this check without logging the related secrets to ~bash_history.

also, you do need the mariadb in azure of course. this is already relatively banal, but without that, pfft.

*:[whole reason i made this md file]

edit:

seems to also require at-least github.com/go-sql-driver/[email protected], perhaps even v1.5. (a toml w/ v1.3 in-part got me here)
