mysql create procedure code example

Example 1: mysql create stored procedure

-- MySQL

-- example
DELIMITER $$ -- Changes delimiter to $$ so can use ; within the procedure
CREATE PROCEDURE select_employees()
BEGIN
	select * 
	from employees 
	limit 1000; -- Use the ; symbol within the procedure
END$$ 
DELIMITER ; -- Resets the delimiter

/* syntax:
DELIMITER $$ -- Changes delimiter to $$ so can use ; within the procedure
CREATE PROCEDURE <Your-procedure-name>(<argument1><argument2>...<argumentN>)
BEGIN
	<Code-that-stored-procedure-executes>; -- Use the ; symbol within the procedure
END$$
DELIMITER ; -- Resets the delimiter
*/

Example 2: mysql create function

-- MySQL

-- example
DELIMITER $$
CREATE FUNCTION f_employee_count(p_dept_no INTEGER) RETURNS INTEGER
  DETERMINISTIC NO SQL READS SQL DATA
  BEGIN
    DECLARE v_emp_count INTEGER;

    SELECT COUNT(*)
    INTO v_emp_count
    FROM EMPLOYEES E
    WHERE E.DEPT_NO = p_dept_no
    GROUP BY DEPARTMENT_NO;

    RETURN v_emp_count;
END$$
DELIMITER ;

/* syntax:
DELIMITER $$
CREATE FUNCTION <Your-procedure-name>(<arguments>) RETURNS <date-type>
  DETERMINISTIC NO SQL READS SQL DATA
  BEGIN
      DECLARE <variable-name> <data-type>

      <Code-that-sets-the-output-variable>; 

      RETURN <variable-name>;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
*/

Example 3: create stored procedure mysql

DELIMITER $$

CREATE PROCEDURE GetAllProducts()
BEGIN
	SELECT *  FROM products;
END $$

DELIMITER ;


-- Once you save the stored procedure, you can invoke it by using the CALL statement:

CALL GetAllProducts();
