MySQL Server includes a component-based infrastructure for extending server capabilities. A component provides services that are available to the server and other components. (With respect to service use, the server is a component, equal to other components.) Components interact with each other only through the services they provide.
MySQL distributions include several components that implement server extensions:
Components for configuring error logging. SeeSection 7.4.2, “The Error Log”, andSection 7.5.3, “Error Log Components”.
A component for checking passwords. SeeSection 8.4.3, “The Password Validation Component”.
Keyring components provide secure storage for sensitive information. SeeSection 8.4.4, “The MySQL Keyring”.
A component that enables applications to add their own message events to the audit log. SeeSection 8.4.6, “The Audit Message Component”.
A component that implements a loadable function for accessing query attributes. SeeSection 11.6, “Query Attributes”.
A component for scheduling actively executing tasks. SeeSection 7.5.5, “Scheduler Component”.
Components for use with MySQL Replication and MySQL Group Replication. SeeSection 7.5.6, “Replication Components”.
A component that enables creation and use of MySQL stored programs written in JavaScript. SeeSection 7.5.7, “Multilingual Engine Component (MLE)”.
System and status variables implemented by a component are exposed when the component is installed and have names that begin with a component-specific prefix. For example, thelog_filter_dragnet error log filter component implements a system variable namedlog_error_filter_rules, the full name of which isdragnet.log_error_filter_rules. To refer to this variable, use the full name.
The following sections describe how to install and uninstall components, and how to determine at runtime which components are installed and obtain information about them.
For information about the internal implementation of components, see the MySQL Server Doxygen documentation, available athttps://dev.mysql.com/doc/index-other.html. For example, if you intend to write your own components, this information is important for understanding how components work.
