Bug Description

Currently we can only use --user and --password parameters to authenticate. Would it be possible to add --defaults-file style authentication to mydumper/myloader so we can use /etc/mysql/debian.cnf for example?

Thanks!

Hi Bart,

We will add this option, but remember you can use ~/.my.cnf for that as well.

Hey Max,

Thanks for adding this!

I'm currently using ~/.my.cnf as a workaround :-)
