SHOW {DATABASES | SCHEMAS}
[LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
SHOW DATABASES lists the databases on the
MySQL server host. SHOW SCHEMAS is a synonym
for SHOW DATABASES as of MySQL 5.0.2. The
LIKE clause, if present,
indicates which database names to match. The
WHERE clause can be given to select rows
using more general conditions, as discussed in
Section 24.19, “Extensions to SHOW Statements”.
You see only those databases for which you have some kind of
privilege, unless you have the global SHOW
DATABASES privilege. You can also get this list using
the mysqlshow command.
If the server was started with the
--skip-show-database option, you cannot use
this statement at all unless you have the SHOW
DATABASES privilege.
