Subject: allow third-party configuration

Date: Wed, 16 May 2012 12:14:41 -0400

Package: phpmyadmin
Severity: wishlist

It would be nice if Debian's configuration files for phpMyAdmin would
allow for other packages (say MySQL or control panels) to
automatically configure new servers into phpMyAdmin.

We would need a /etc/phpmyadmin/conf.d directory that would be
included in /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php, then other packages could
just drop files in there to configure phpMyAdmin.

The alternative is to edit /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php right now,
which is in violation of Debian's Policy (section 10.7.4 "Sharing
configuration files").

I can provide sample PHP code to implement this if you are open to the
idea.

Thanks!

A.

Do you have some specific use cases in mind here? MySQL server is
already handled using dbconfig.

I am the maintainer of the Aegir Debian package, which manages multiple
server and is designed to configure multiple database servers. It
prompts you for the username/password of MySQL servers, and could feed
at least the hostname back into phpMyAdmin.

Ideally, those parameters could be fed directly into a commandline
script that would also populate the phpMyAdmin database on that server,
but I am not looking for that functionality so much.

I think other control panels could use that functionality too.
