Accessing Database through command line 
  • AVOID DOING THIS UNLESS IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY
  • IntelliJ has this really cool built-in database viewer if you need to view the tables
  • If you need to update the database manually, write a script so FlyWay can keep track of it
  • `docker exec it launchfinance mysql -uroot -pPASSWORD
