version=1.10.0
[connections]
localhost=user=root have_user=1 have_pass=1 savepass=0 dsn=DBI:mysql:;host=localhost;mysql_read_default_group=client
[/connections]

Then it asks on every start.

As you noted above, it requires that the password either be entered on the command line (and retrievable via .bash_history) or stored in plain text in a config file. The dev of the tool feels prompting for the password in the same manner that mysql’s CLI does would be “hard/impossible/impractical” (his words). Push requests with a fix have been made by a few people but have been ignored. If he’s skimping on the most basic of security features, I cringe to think of what else has been avoided because “it’s hard”.

This is not a tool that should be used in a production environment.

Right now the only way to install the latest Innotop is to download it from here: https://code.google.com/p/innotop/downloads/list or rely on your Linux distribution to include/update it in it’s repositories.

(So is mysqlreport.)
