    version '5.7'
    initial_root_password 'root_password'
    data_dir '/var/lib/mysql'
    action [:create, :start]

Expecting mysql and user me

:heavy_plus_sign: Additional context

I understand that root uses auth_socket plugin. I assume if I change plugin to mysql_native_password it would work. But I do know want to change plugin. Also it requires other recipes to be used. I would like to solve mysql server installation with this cookbook only.

If I could specify shell user who executes mysql_user resource, then I would set root (from ubuntu). However, there is no such option.

For now I solved it with execute shell script doing the same thing, but as root.
