Automated MySQL Installation

Here is a nice “Copy & Paste” script that you can use for installing MySQL.
This script skips the “mysql_secure_installation” part, in which you need to answer questions, and simply inserts all the needed information directly into the database.

This script was tested under Linux CentOS 7, and is using the Yum repository for installation.

yum install  -y --nogpgcheck  http://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql57-community-release-el7-7.noarch.rpm
sed -i 's/enabled=1/enabled=0/g' /etc/yum.repos.d/mysql-community.repo 
yum --nogpgcheck install mysql-community-server --enablerepo=mysql56-community -y
 
 
/etc/init.d/mysqld start
 
GENERATE_MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=`date +%s | sha256sum | base64 | head -c 12 ; echo`
DATABASE_PASS="$GENERATE_MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD"
 
mysql -u root &lt; /root/.my.cnf
