- There are multiple ways to do this. Just picked two that I find more usable (not very insecure or hard to do).
- 1. Use a configuration file to store the credentials
- mysql --defaults-extra-file=/full/path/to/config.cnf
- and the configuration file should contain the login data:
- [client]
- user = "user"
- password = "password"
- host = "host"
- 2. Keep the command, but filter out the error by piping a grep command:
- mysql <options> 2>&1 | grep -v "Warning: Using a password"
