DB_HOST parameter: which database? #30

Hello,

Thanks for the good work ! I have a quesiton about DBHOST and DB* parameters. Which database is it about? Is it about the internal wikibase database in cas you want to dump a custom wikibase instance?

best regards,

bennofs commented 3 years ago

It's a MariaDB database used by wdumper itself to store the queue of requested dumps, and metadata like title, creation time etc.
