        .. todo::
        
            - make a note about how to setup mysql login paths and have them associated with the database setting in the sherlock settings file
        
        .. code:: bash
        
            mysql_config_editor set --login-path=xxx --host=127.0.0.1 --user=myuser --password --port=xxx
        
        
        Development
        -----------
        
        If you want to tinker with the code, then install in development mode.
