Efficient Database Import into MySQL Using Drupal Container CLI by Masood Ahmad

Effortlessly Importing Databases into MySQL via Drupal Container CLI

Masood Ahmad, a passionate Drupal developer, has shared an efficient method for importing databases into MySQL using a Drupal container CLI, aiming to save developers time when working with Docker. The process involves several steps: copying the database from a local machine to the MySQL container, accessing the MySQL container using Docker commands, and entering the MySQL command line interface. Once in the CLI, the database can be imported using the 'source db.sql' command. After the import, users can exit the CLI and container and finally remove the copied database from the container. This streamlined approach is detailed further in Masood's LinkedIn post
