MySQL ngram_token_size flag

[Kurt Marcinkiewicz]

Is there any way to set the "ngram_token_size" flag for MySQL? I don't see it in the list of supported flags.

Hello Kurt, 

ngram_token_size is a read-only variable, whose value can be set either in the start-up string:

mysqld --ngram_token_size=1 

or in the MySQL configuration file. Neither of these 2 options are available in CloudSQL, as accessing local file systems is not allowed, and there is no super privilege.
