How to create database on google cloud sql instanc

问题:

How can I use Cloud SQL to create a database? When I use MySQL, I could easily run a sql script to create them on phpMyAdmin.

I found a site that advertises that it's possible to run SQL files right on Google Cloud SQL.

This is exactly what I want to do. I could run my code to create a couple databases, and they would be in my cloud SQL, and I could connect my appengine app to my cloudsql and it would work as expected.

But when I follow the instructions on that site, I only see this:

Where is the SQL prompt? How can I create databases on my cloud sql instance?

As @Juan Enrique Muñoz Zolotoochin says, singe February 2015 it is now possible to manage databases using the new Developer Console, making my original answer (below) obsolete.

New Answer

Open your project, expand Storage and then Cloud SQL, switch to the DATABASES tab. From there you can use the New database button to create a new database. You can also delete databases from there.

Original Answer (Now obsolete)

This has not been implemented in the new Cloud Console yet, you have to use the old api's console for this.

To get to it first go to the Cloud SQL section of your project in the new console (where you are). Then in the bottom right there is a link "Return to original console". If you click on this you get to a slightly different control panel for Cloud SQL.

If you then click on the instance you want to create your database on, you will get another screen that has a "SQL Prompt" tab, click on that and then you can execute raw SQL commands against it.

UPDATE: To get to the old APIs console and prevent the redirect taking you to the new console use this link: https://code.google.com/apis/console/b/0/?noredirect

UPDATE (2015-02-13): You can now use the Developer Console UI to manage your MySQL databases. Just go to your Cloud SQL instance page and click on the Databases tab.

ORIGINAL ANSWER (still works): If you have a MySQL client installed it is fairly easy to connect to your Cloud SQL instance and create a new Database.

1. Go to the Access Control section of your Cloud SQL instance.
2. If you haven't done it, get an external IP Address.
3. From the same page, set the password for the root user.
4. Whitelist yourself by adding a new Authorized Network and entering your IP.

Then, if you're using the standard mysql command line client, go a to a terminal and run

mysql -uroot -p<your-root-password> -h<your-cloudsql-instance-ip>

Or you can just use any client you want.

Once you've connected to you database you can just CREATE DATABASE MyDatabase.
