Phpmyadmin Manager

Manage the phpMyAdmin Docker container for local dev environments. Provides a web UI for MySQL at http://localhost:8081. Requires mysql-manager and proxy-manager to be running first.

Manages the phpMyAdmin Docker container, providing a web UI for MySQL database management.

Architecture

phpmyadmin-manager/
├── docker-compose.yml   # phpMyAdmin 5.2 container
└── run.sh               # lifecycle CLI

Connects to the shared nginx-proxy_net network and reaches MySQL at codai_db:3306. No data is persisted — phpMyAdmin is stateless.

Commands

./run.sh start    # start phpMyAdmin container
./run.sh stop     # stop container
./run.sh status   # show status and URL
./run.sh open     # print access URL

How to Execute Tasks

Start phpMyAdmin

Check your session context for the absolute script path, then run:

<plugin-root>/phpmyadmin-manager/run.sh start

Open http://localhost:8081 in a browser. Login: root / MySQL root password.

Check status

<plugin-root>/phpmyadmin-manager/run.sh status

Prerequisites

Start in this order:

1. proxy-manager start — creates the shared Docker network
2. mysql-manager start — MySQL must be running before phpMyAdmin connects

Configuration

Variable	Default	Purpose
PMA_CONTAINER	codai_phpmyadmin	Container name
PMA_PORT	8081	Host port
MYSQL_CONTAINER	codai_db	MySQL hostname on shared net
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD	secret	MySQL root password
PMA_UPLOAD_LIMIT	64M	Max SQL file upload size
CODAI_NETWORK	nginx-proxy_net	Shared Docker network name

Rules

• Start mysql-manager before this plugin — phpMyAdmin cannot connect without MySQL.
• Port 8081 is bound to 127.0.0.1 — accessible from the host only.
• Use stop when done; the container uses restart: unless-stopped and survives reboots.
