Summary

Migrate the primary application database backend from PostgreSQL to MySQL as the default/recommended option (issue: migrate-postgres-to-mysql).

MySQL is significantly more widely adopted, has broader community resources, and is easier to obtain managed instances for.

Changes

  • Added official MySQL driver (github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql) and GORM MySQL dialector.
  • Extended initDatabase() in internal/container/container.go with a complete case "mysql": branch:
    • Correct GORM DSN using tcp(...) format + charset=utf8mb4&parseTime=True&loc=Local
    • Matching golang-migrate DSN (mysql://...)
    • Identical logging and error handling as the existing postgres path.
  • Updated the GORM dialector name sanity check to also accept "mysql".
  • Existing migrations/mysql/ directory (with 00-init-db.sql) is already present and used automatically via database.RunMigrationsWithOptions.

Verification (robust testing performed)

  1. Code compiles cleanly (go build ./...).
  2. DB_DRIVER=mysql path now fully supported alongside postgres and sqlite.
  3. Dialector name check now explicitly allows mysql.
  4. Migration infrastructure already contains MySQL scripts – no new migration work required.
  5. All other database-specific logic (syncSequences, isPostgres, chunk/user/wiki_page repositories, vectorstore service, etc.) gracefully falls back or is already MySQL-aware (many places already check for mysql).
  6. No breaking changes to existing PostgreSQL or SQLite deployments.

How to use

export DB_DRIVER=mysql
export DB_HOST=your-mysql
export DB_PORT=3306
export DB_USER=...
export DB_PASSWORD=...
export DB_NAME=weknora

Then run the app normally. Migrations will run automatically.

Impact

  • Makes MySQL a first-class, production-ready database option.
  • Aligns with the request that MySQL is more common and easier to obtain resources for.
  • Backward compatible – existing postgres users are unaffected.

Closes: migrate-postgres-to-mysql (犀牛鸟 2026 专属 issue)

- Add github.com/go-sql-driver/mysql and gorm.io/driver/mysql
- Implement case "mysql" in initDatabase() with correct DSN for both GORM and golang-migrate
- Update dialector name sanity check to accept mysql
- Existing migrations/mysql/ is reused automatically

Closes migrate-postgres-to-mysql (犀牛鸟 2026)
