Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 35,467 PointsHey Deano. In the next course involving hibernate and spring Chris goes over this. Essentially you add it in your database configuration file and point to the file path on your local machine. Done worry if that doesn't make sense yet it is definate covered.
