MySQL files don't "run" on the internet. They only "run" inside MySQL; databases like MySQL are designed to hide such files from users, presenting instead a database application interface (API) that other programs can work with.

Internet apps are written in scripting languages (PHP, Python, C# &c) that generate html code. Many such languages have APIs for databases eg MySQL.

So to connect your local MySQL db to the 'net, you'd need to mount a local web server, acquire a stable IP address, then write some programs.

Not easy, whiuch is why most of us rent lease or buy web server functionality from web hosting providers, which I suggest you do, Your local machine will e your development machine.
