Connect to docker mysql through Sequel Pro mac - mysql

Question

I'm trying to connect to my running Docker SQL database on my machine through Sequel Pro, unfortunately appears that connecting to it is failing/isn't possible through this method?
My docker-compose.yml file is:
version: "3.7"
services:
app:
build:
args:
user: user
uid: 1000
context: ./
dockerfile: Dockerfile
image: brand
container_name: brand-app
restart: unless-stopped
working_dir: /var/www/
volumes:
- ./:/var/www
networks:
- brand
db:
image: mysql:5.7
container_name: brand-db
restart: unless-stopped
ports:
- 3306:3306
environment:
MYSQL_DATABASE: ${DB_DATABASE}
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: ${DB_PASSWORD}
MYSQL_PASSWORD: ${DB_PASSWORD}
MYSQL_USER: ${DB_USERNAME}
SERVICE_TAGS: dev
SERVICE_NAME: mysql
volumes:
- ./docker-compose/mysql:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d
networks:
- brand
nginx:
image: nginx:alpine
container_name: brand-nginx
restart: unless-stopped
ports:
- 8000:80
volumes:
- ./:/var/www
- ./docker-compose/nginx:/etc/nginx/conf.d/
networks:
- brand
networks:
brand:
driver: bridge
And I'm trying to connect using:
127.0.0.1
root
root
port 3306
which appears to fail... not sure how to connect
I've got docker-compose up running, and my containers are all running

Answer 1

I encounter this question too.
the why of dealing with this problem is to change your database_host to the name you had given in docker-compose.yml
for example:
this.connection = mysql.createConnection({
host: 'db' || '127.0.0.1',
user: 'root',
password: '123',
database: 'CHIRINOS',
port: 3306
});
here db in host is your database name of docker container

Answer 2

This solution fixed the issue for me.
Looks like Sail uses MySQL 8 by default, which means that you won't be able to use Sequel Pro with Sail. You can try using nightly builds or try Sequel Ace - Sequel Pro's fork.
This is the source of the solution
