Is your feature request related to a problem?

I have seen that there are several variables for the passwords of the root and db user inside the db container

MYSQL_PWD=db
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root
MYSQL_PASSWORD=db

Would it be possible to read these variables from the .ddev/.env file, i.e. via

MYSQL_PASSWORD=db-changed
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root-changed

and pass it to the /healtcheck.sh inside the db container?

While changing the root password currently works, changing the password of the db user seems to collide with the /healthcheck.sh of the db container, since the password is hardcoded

# If we can now access the server, we're healthy and ready
if  mysql --host=127.0.0.1 -udb -pdb --database=db -e "SHOW DATABASES LIKE 'db';" >/dev/null;  then
    printf "healthy"
    touch /tmp/healthy
    exit 0
fi

and the .ddev/.env file is not passed to the db container.

Of course i could create another user for this, but it would be more elegant to change the password of the existing db user only.

Describe your solution

• Include .ddev/.env in db container or source it in /healtcheck.sh from /mnt/ddev_config/.env
• Adjust /healtcheck.sh inside the db container to use the environment variable MYSQL_PASSWORD
