MySQL 8 带来了全新的体验，比如支持 NoSQL、JSON 等，拥有比 MySQL 5.7 两倍以上的性能提升。本文讲解如何在 Windows 下安装 MySQL 8，以及基本的 MySQL 用法。
下载
下载地址 https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/8.0.html。
本例为：MySQL Community Server 8.0.12。
解压
解压至安装目录，比如 D 盘根目录下。
本例为：D:\mysql-8.0.12-winx64。
创建 my.ini
my.ini 是 MySQL 安装的配置文件：
[mysqld]
# 安装目录
basedir=D:\\mysql-8.0.12-winx64
# 数据存放目录
datadir=D:\\mysqlData\\data
my.ini放置在 MySQL 安装目录的根目录下。需要注意的是，要先创建D:\mysqlData目录。data目录是由 MySQL 来创建。
初始化安装
执行：
mysqld --defaults-file=D:\mysql-8.0.12-winx64\my.ini --initialize --console
控制台输出如下，说明安装成功：
>mysqld --defaults-file=D:\mysql-8.0.12-winx64\my.ini --initialize --console

其中，“L-hk!rBuk9-.”就是 root 用户的初始化密码。稍后可以做更改。
启动、关闭 MySQL server
执行mysqld就能启动 MySQL server，或者执行 mysqld --console可以看到完整的启动信息：
>mysqld --console
2018-08-20T16:18:23.698153Z 0 [Warning] [MY-010915] [Server] 'NO_ZERO_DATE', 'NO_ZERO_IN_DATE' and 'ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO' sql modes should be used with strict mode. They will be merged with strict mode in a future release.

关闭，可以执行 mysqladmin -u root shutdown。
使用 MySQL 客户端
使用 mysql 来登录，账号为 root，密码为“L-hk!rBuk9-.”：
>mysql -u root -p
Enter password: ************

mysql> ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '123456';
