What is the method for restoring a MariaDB database?

To restore a MariaDB database, you can either use the `mysql` command-line tool or a visual tool like `phpMyAdmin` to execute the backup file. When using the `mysql` command-line tool, the steps to restore the database are as follows: 1. Open the command-line terminal or command prompt window. 2. Log in to the MariaDB server using the command `mysql -u username -p`, then enter the password. 3. Create a new database (optional): `CREATE DATABASE database_name;`. 4. Select the database to restore: `USE database_name;`. 5. Import the backup file using the command: `source backup_file_path;`. 6. Wait for the import to complete, then exit the MariaDB command-line tool: `exit;`. When using a visual tool like `phpMyAdmin` to restore the database, the steps are as follows: 1. Open `phpMyAdmin` or another visual tool. 2. Log in to the MariaDB server. 3. Select the database to restore. 4. Go to the “Import” tab. 5. Click the “Choose file” button and select the backup file. 6. Click the “Go” button to start importing the backup file. 7. Wait for the import to complete, then close the visual tool.
