There’s a good example for a CircleCI 2.0 config for Rails with PostreSQL here:  
[https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/language-ruby/#sample-configuration](https://circleci.com/docs/2.0/language-ruby/#sample-configuration)

But I can’t find an example for MySQL. Some people say to simply replace ‘postgres’ with ‘mysql’ but that’s not enough. I’ve tried to play with env variables too (`MYSQL_USER`, etc), but that didn’t work. I’m not sure whether I should provide a `config/database.yml`.

Does anyone have a working example of the CircleCI 2.0 config for Rails with MySQL 5.6?
