MariaDB

Connect to MariaDB through TablePro’s MySQL driver, which uses the MariaDB Connector/C client.

MariaDB

TablePro’s MySQL plugin handles MariaDB. The driver links against MariaDB Connector/C (libmariadb), so MariaDB-specific extended metadata (for example LONGTEXT-stored JSON detection) is recognised on connect.

Connect

In the connection form choose MySQL or MariaDB. Both selections route to the same plugin.

Default port

Connection URL

mysql://user:password@host:3306/database

See Connection URL Reference.

Differences from MySQL

• Default authentication plugin is mysql_native_password (MySQL 8.0 defaults to caching_sha2_password).
• TablePro reads MariaDB extended field attributes (MARIADB_FIELD_ATTR_FORMAT_NAME) to detect JSON values stored in LONGTEXT columns and render them with the JSON cell editor.

Everything else (SSH tunnels, SSL/TLS, schema browsing, table operations) matches MySQL.

SSL / TLS

Same as MySQL. See MySQL & MariaDB for SSL configuration.
