Installation
NOTE: If you are going to connect to MySQL through Thyme with a username/password that has access to create databases, as well as alter/drop/create tables you may skip this step. The installation will create a database for you.

If you have access to a MySQL administration program/interface, such as phpMyAdmin, you may use that to create a database and user. Otherwise..

Run the command:
mysqladmin -u root -p create 'thyme'
Where root is a user with access to create databases and 'thyme' is the database name you wish to create.

The username you are going to use to connect to MySQL through Thyme must have all privileges on this new database. To grant this user access, enter the following from within the mysql command line interface:
mysql> grant all on thyme.* to user@localhost identified by 'pass';
mysql> flush privileges;
Where thyme is the database name, user is the user name you will use, and pass is the password you will be creating for user. localhost is the host from which you are connecting to mysql from.
