<hr class="divider">
<p>The <code class="highlighter-rouge">recorder</code> component is storing details in a database which then are handled by the <a href="/components/history/"><code class="highlighter-rouge">history</code> component</a>.</p>
<p>Home Assistant uses <a href="http://www.sqlalchemy.org/">SQLAlchemy</a> as Object Relational Mapper (ORM). This means that you can now use <strong>any</strong> SQL backend for the recorder that is supported by SQLAlchemy, like <a href="https://www.mysql.com/">MySQL</a>, <a href="https://mariadb.org/">MariaDB</a>, or <a href="https://www.postgresql.org/">PostgreSQL</a>.</p>
<p>The default database engine is <a href="https://www.sqlite.org/">SQLite</a> which doesnt require any configuration. The database is stored in your Home Assistant configuration directory (<code class="highlighter-rouge">.homeassistant</code>) and called <code class="highlighter-rouge">home-assistant.db</code>.</p>
<p>To setup the <code class="highlighter-rouge">recorder</code> component in your installation, add the following to your <code class="highlighter-rouge">configuration.yaml</code> file:</p>
<div class="language-yaml highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code><span class="c1"># Example configuration.yaml entry</span>
<span class="s">recorder</span><span class="pi">:</span>
<span class="s">purge_days</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">14</span>
</code></pre>
</div>
<p>Configuration variables:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>purge_days</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): Delete events and states older than x days.</li>
<li><strong>db_url</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): The URL which point to your database.</li>
</ul>

<p>Not all Python bindings for the choosen database engine can be installed directly. This section contains additional details which should help you to get it working.</p>
<h3><a class="title-link" name="mysql" href="#mysql"></a> MYSQL</h3>
<p>For MySQL you may have to install a few dependencies:</p>
<div class="language-bash highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code><span class="gp">$ </span>sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
<span class="gp">$ </span>pip3 install mysqlclient
