title: Provision a Database and Import a SQL File for initialization
---
This tutorial will talk about how to provision a relational database with SQL file imported, and bootstrap an
application which depends on the database.
[Favorite Links](https://github.com/kubevela-contrib/nodejs-mysql-links) is an interesting project which can store all
your favorite web links in one application. It is using Node.js and MySQL. It has been built into a container image
`oamdev/nodejs-mysql-links:v0.0.1`. Let's bootstrap the application and see how to provision a database, and import a SQL
file (which means to create tables, and insert data into them if needed).
> Currently, it only works on Alibaba Cloud
> ComponentDefinition [alibaba-rds-preview](https://github.com/kubevela/catalog/blob/master/addons/terraform-alibaba/definitions/terraform-alibaba-rds-preview.yaml) is the feature preview for Alibaba Cloud RDS, and will be merged into alibaba-rds later.
### How it works
> Feel free to skip this section if you are not interested.
Alibaba Cloud RDS Preview supports importing SQL file when create an RDS instance with these properties:
| Name | Description | Type | Required | Default |
|---------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------|--------|----------|---------|
| sql_file | The name of SQL file in the bucket, like `db.sql` | string | false | |
| sql_bucket_name | The bucket name of the SQL file. like `oss://example` | string | false | |
| sql_bucket_endpoint | The endpoint of the bucket. like `oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com` | string | false | |
After an RDS database is created, the SQL file from OSS bucket will be imported into the database by the power of Terraform
[`local-exec` provisioner](https://github.com/kubevela-contrib/terraform-modules/blob/master/alibaba/rds-preview/main.tf#L24-L33)
which is referenced by [Alibaba Cloud RDS Preview ComponentDefinition](https://github.com/kubevela/catalog/blob/master/addons/terraform-alibaba/definitions/terraform-alibaba-rds-preview.yaml#L23-L25).
### Prerequisites
- Enable addon [terraform-alibaba](../../../reference/addons/terraform)
- Remember to store the SQL file in an [Alibaba Cloud OSS bucket](./terraform/alibaba-oss)
Let's say we have an OSS bucket `oss://favorite-links` which contains a SQL file `db.sql` in it, and the bucket endpoint
is `oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com`.
### Provision cloud resources
Use the following Application to provision a database `links`, import the SQL file `db.sql`, and bootstrap the application
Favorite Links.
```yaml
apiVersion: core.oam.dev/v1beta1
kind: Application
metadata:
name: favorite-links
spec:
components:
- name: web
type: webservice
properties:
image: oamdev/nodejs-mysql-links:v0.0.1
port: 4000
traits:
- type: service-binding
properties:
envMappings:
DATABASE_HOST:
secret: db-conn
key: DB_PUBLIC_HOST
DATABASE_NAME:
secret: db-conn
key: DATABASE_NAME
DATABASE_USER:
secret: db-conn
key: DB_USER
DATABASE_PASSWORD:
secret: db-conn
key: DB_PASSWORD
- name: db
type: alibaba-rds
properties:
instance_name: favorite-links
database_name: links
account_name: oamtest
password: U34rfwefwefffaked
security_ips: [ "0.0.0.0/0" ]
privilege: ReadWrite
sql_file: db.sql
sql_bucket_endpoint: oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com
sql_bucket_name: oss://favorite-links
writeConnectionSecretToRef:
name: db-conn
```
After the application is successfully deployed, you can access the web application by the following URL:
```shell
$ vela ls
APP COMPONENT TYPE TRAITS PHASE HEALTHY STATUS CREATED-TIME

```
```shell
$ vela port-forward favorite-links 4000:4000
