Local on Linux - how to import DB

Support
1

Hi, using Local 5.0.4+825 on Ubuntu.
I’ve created a new site, and that works, pretty easy workflow. I’ve moved the necessary WordPress files to the Local Sites directory, easy too. But… How do I import a DB into this site?

See attached screenshot, no PHPMyAdmin / Adminer links on the database tab.

Hey @mbootsman! Adminer is coming soon to Local 5, but right now you will need a MySQL client of some sort to connect to the database using the socket and credentials there. One option out there is MySQL Workbench:
https://www.mysql.com/products/workbench/

Once installed, you can configure a connection to the Local database through it and import an SQL file.
