Use mysql_user module to create, delete users.
Update user password and ensure new password was updated for the correct user.
Assert user has access to multiple databases
Assert user creation, deleting using different user privilege and ensure privilege work correctly.
When revoking privileges from a user, the GRANT OPTION is always
revoked, even if the user doesn't have it. If the user exists, this
doesn't give an error, but if the user doesn't exist, it does:
mysql> GRANT ALL ON test.* TO 'test'@'localhost';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> REVOKE GRANT OPTION ON test.* FROM 'test'@'localhost';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> REVOKE GRANT OPTION ON test.* FROM 'test'@'localhost';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> REVOKE ALL ON test.* FROM 'test'@'localhost';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> REVOKE GRANT OPTION ON test.* FROM 'test'@'localhost';
ERROR 1141 (42000): There is no such grant defined for user 'test' on
host 'localhost'
Additionally, in MySQL 5.6 this breaks replication because of
http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=68892.
Rather than revoking the GRANT OPTION and catching the error, check if
the user actually has it and only revoke it when he does.
Migrated all examples: in DOCUMENTATION=''' string to standalone EXAMPLES=''' string
Added deprecation warning to moduledev.rst and remove deprecated example from it
Fixed up a few typos and uppercased some acronyms.
add consistency to how EXAMPLES are formatted
In MySQL 5.6, the root account created by default during MySQL
installation has the PROXY ... WITH GRANT OPTION privilege for ''@'',
that is, for all users.
The mysql_user module tries to revoke this privilege, but this fails:
_mysql_exceptions.ProgrammingError: (1064, "You have an error in your
SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server
version for the right syntax to use near '''@'' FROM 'root'@'localhost''
at line 1")
Quick fix: don't revoke privilege if user is root and the privilege to
revoke contains PROXY.
