MySql : Grant read only options?

Question

I have a user, whom I want to grant all the READ permission on a db schema.

One way is this :

GRANT SELECT, SHOW_VIEW  ON test.* TO \'readuser\'@\'%         


        

Answer 1

If you want the view to be read only after granting the read permission you can use the ALGORITHM = TEMPTABLE in you view DDL definition.
