To create a new instance of the MySQL store, is is reccomended that you provide a database name, a table name, a username and a password. The database must exist beforehand, but the table will be created if it does not exist.

// import "github.com/gomodule/redigo/redis"
store := mysql.New(mysql.Config{
    DatabaseName: "myDb",
    TableName: "thisStore",
    Username: "user",
    Password: "yourPasswordHere",
})

By default the store will connect to a database on 127.0.0.1:3306. If you are using multiple MySQL stores in your application, it is strongly advised that you use different table names for each, to avoid data being overwritten or otherwise damaged.

A full list of configuration options and their defaults can be found in config.go.
