How to connect and call the database in php

PHP needs to specify the following parameters to connect to the database

MySQL data source name or DSN: Specify the address of the MySQL database server. You can use an IP address or server name, for example, 127.0.0.1 or localhost

MySQL database name: Indicates the name of the database to connect to.

Username and Password: Specify the username and password of the MySQL user used to connect to the MySQL database server. This account must have sufficient permissions to access the database specified above.

We will use:

Local MySQL database server, so that the DSN is localhost.

In classicmodels as a sample database.

Connecting to MySQL Steps

 Secondly, we create a new PHP file called phpmysqlconnect.php: 
getMessage());
}
 If the connection to the MySQL database is established successfully, we will display a success message. If there are any errors or exceptions, PHP will issue a PDOException 
 containing a detailed error message. We call the object's getMesage() method PDOException to get the detailed message to be displayed.
