mysql CLI command as /.config/herd/bin/mysql.bat

[pyerro]

I installed Herd on Windows. When checking if everything works in CLI (https://herd.laravel.com/docs/windows/getting-started/installation) I found that basic commands (herd, composer, php, laravel, ...) were not working. So I added %USERPROFILE%\.config\herd\bin to my PATH.

Then I bought Herd pro license. When I ran mysql command in CLI, it didn't work. Docs are clear (https://herd.laravel.com/docs/windows/herd-pro-services/mysql), but why do I need to add another folder to my PATH? I have already added %USERPROFILE%\.config\herd\bin.

So I added mysql.bat to %USERPROFILE%\.config\herd\bin with similar contents as in other default .bat files:

@echo off
"C:\Users\[username]\.config\herd\bin\services\mysql\8.0.36\bin\mysql.exe" %*

My suggestion is to include this mysql.bat file in default Herd installation. Maybe it will save a few clicks for other Windows developers.
