$proxy = new MySQL_Proxy(
new SQLite_Adapter( $db_path ),

)
);
$proxy->start();
```

The account uses `caching_sha2_password` by default, which PDO and MySQLi on PHP
below 7.4.4 can't use. For those clients, set `--auth-plugin=mysql_native_password`,
or pass `mysql_native_password` as the third `MySQL_Authentication` argument.

The proxy listens on `127.0.0.1` by default. Set `--bind-address` (or the PHP
`bind_address` option) to an IPv4 or IPv6 address to change the listener. Binding
to `0.0.0.0` or `::` explicitly exposes the proxy on all interfaces.

Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Reject an option value that starts with - when it comes from the next token.

Line 55 takes the next argument as the value without checking its prefix. --database --port=5 stores --port=5 as the database path. The port flag is lost, and SQLite_Adapter then creates a file named --port=5. --user --auth-plugin=x sets the account name to --auth-plugin=x in the same way.

None of these options need separate-token values that begin with -. Report a missing value in that case. Users can still pass such a value with the --option=value form.

Based on learnings: a parser that consumes the next token must report a missing value when that token begins with the option prefix.

Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Review comment at @packages/mysql-proxy/bin/wp-mysql-proxy.php around lines 55 -
60:
Update the option-value parsing flow so a value taken from the next argument is
treated as missing if that token starts with “-”; do not consume that token, and
preserve support for values supplied with the --option=value form.

Read the password source directly and use php://stdin in the pipe test.

is_readable() returns false for both /dev/stdin and php://stdin, although file_get_contents('php://stdin') succeeds. The current precheck rejects the pipe test before reading. A failed read can also be cast to an empty password, so check the actual read result.

Review comment at @packages/mysql-proxy/bin/wp-mysql-proxy.php at line 127:
Update the password-file handling around `$password = file_get_contents(
$password_file )` to rely on the read result instead of `is_readable()`, which
rejects stdin streams; treat a `false` result as a read failure before using the
password. Update the pipe test to pass `php://stdin` as the password source.

Do not return messages from non-query exceptions.

WP_MySQL_On_SQLite::query() wraps non-PDOException throwables with their original message. SQLite_Adapter::handle_query() accepts that message unless the cause is an Error. An internal Exception from the ALTER TABLE schema-builder path can therefore reach MySQL_Session::process_query(), which sends it to the client. Return only explicitly client-safe query errors and route other causes through the generic-error path.

Review comment at @packages/mysql-proxy/src/Adapter/class-sqlite-adapter.php at
line 45:
Update the error handling in SQLite_Adapter::handle_query around
is_internal_error so only explicitly client-safe query errors return their
messages; route other causes, including internal Exceptions, through the
generic-error path.
