title: How to require SSL in RMySQL in R?
body: <p>I used to connect to MySQL databases from R with this function:</p>
  
  <pre><code>db &lt;- DBI::dbConnect(RMySQL::MySQL(),
                              user = server$db_user,
                              password = server$db_pw,
                              host = server$host,
                              dbname = db_name)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This function works perfectly fine before. Now after we modified the databases with SSL, it is no longer working. What would be the solution to there? </p>
