MySQL Procedure structure - mysql

I am trying to create a procedure to allow users to rent a car, there are numerous tables in my DB, the ones I am using are 'car' and 'customer'. I want the user to be able to insert a car registration and their mobile number, from here, a search will be conducted from the 'car' table to see if they car registration they inputted matches any stored in the 'car' table. Here is what I have so far -
CREATE PROCEDURE new_loan
(
IN `#car_reg` VARCHAR(10) ,
IN `#mobile_no` int)
BEGIN
SELECT carReg
FROM car
WHERE (carReg = car_reg);
END$$
DELIMITER ;
it brings up nothing except an empty car_reg even when the input data matches that in the car table.
Thanks

You need to be more consistent in your variable names.
`#car_reg` != car_reg
Something like this should work:
DELIMITER $$
CREATE PROCEDURE new_loan
(
IN v_car_reg VARCHAR(10) ,
IN v_mobile_no int)
BEGIN
SELECT carReg
FROM car
WHERE (carReg = v_car_reg);
END$$
DELIMITER ;

Getting value from MYSQL, adding 1 and inserting into new entry

I am trying to make a stored procedure in MySQL that will take the highest number from a column, add one and use it to make the next entry.
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS ops_software.create_invoice;
DELIMITER //
CREATE PROCEDURE ops_software.create_invoice(IN company VARCHAR(50))
BEGIN
SELECT #old_invoice_number := MAX(invoice_number)
FROM invoices
WHERE invoices.company = company;
SET #new_invoice_number := #old_invoice_number + 1
INSERT INTO invoices (company, invoice_number)
VALUES (company, #new_invoice_number)
END//
DELIMITER ;
CALL ops_software.create_invoice('Super Company')
I don't want to use the auto-increment feature because there are several different company names and each has their own invoice numbers
Getting the value works, but I can't add one to it or insert it to make a new entry
Thanks
CREATE PROCEDURE ops_software.create_invoice(IN in_company VARCHAR(50))
INSERT INTO invoices (company, invoice_number)
SELECT in_company, MAX(invoices.invoice_number) + 1
FROM invoices
WHERE invoices.company = in_company;
DELIMITER and BEGIN-END not needed.
PS. May produce duplicates in concurrent environment.

Need to Create MySQL Procedure for getting data from table based on condition and insert them into another table

Using a single MySQL procedure i need to write queries to get data from a table (where the results can be of a list also) after getting the results,need to insert those selected rows into another table of the same database..I'm finding dificulty in getting the result of the select query and fetching values to insert into another table...
Iam able to do the above one if it returns only one row but in my case it can return any number of rows...
DELIMITER $$
USE `scmn_nov21`$$
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS `procedure1`$$
CREATE DEFINER=`root`#`localhost` PROCEDURE `procedure1`(
IN Param1 VARCHAR(255),
OUT Param2 VARCHAR(255),
OUT Param3 VARCHAR(255)
)
BEGIN
DECLARE myvar TEXT;
SET myvar = (SELECT column1 FROM table1 WHERE column1 =2);
INSERT INTO table1 (column1,column2,column3)
VALUES (myvar,'Malaysia','Asia');
COMMIT;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
I believe that you can do a Create as select: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/create-table-select.html
Returning malassia and asia as fixed values for your query...

Selecting all values from a table in mysql using a stored procedure

I have a table called Contacts with a field called person_id that I have connected to a java application.
If no value is specified for person_id in the application, I want to select everything from the contacts table using a stored procedure.
The operation I want to perform is this:
Select * from Contacts where (person_id like "%")
For this I have written a stored procedure shown below:
Delimiter $$
CREATE DEFINER=`root`#`localhost` PROCEDURE `selectTest2`(In p_id int(11))
BEGIN
if p_id = null then
set p_id = "%";
end if;
select * from Contacts where (person_id like p_id);
END $$
Delimiter ;
However when I run this procedure in my sql using the following
call selectTest2(null)
The table that is returned is blank. How do I make it show all the values in the table?
The parameter p_id gets its value from a text box in the application. If the user has entered an id, I want the procedure to show only that particular record else I want it to show all records.
What have I done wrong and how do I correct it? I am aware that p_id is an int however I tried the same thing with other fields of type varchar and the table failed to return any value.
Try using case statement in where clause like below
WHERE CASE WHEN p_id IS NOT NULL THEN person_id = p_id ELSE TRUE END
Hope this should solve your problem

MySQL cursor not working with Stored Procedure

I wrote store procedure in mysql. Step were followed this website http://www.mysqltutorial.org/mysql-cursor/
But it doesn't work. Here is code
DELIMITER $$
USE `hr`$$
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS `at_getShift`$$
CREATE DEFINER=`root`#`%` PROCEDURE `at_getShift`()
BEGIN
DECLARE finished BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE;
DECLARE employeeID VARCHAR(255);-- Default "";
-- declare cursor for employee email
DECLARE hrEmployee CURSOR FOR SELECT EmployeeID FROM h_employees WHERE EmployeeID IN ('100013', '100014');
-- declare NOT FOUND handler
DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR NOT FOUND SET finished = TRUE;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS temp;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS temp(
`Code` VARCHAR(255)
);
OPEN hrEmployee;
get_employee: LOOP
FETCH hrEmployee INTO employeeID;
INSERT INTO temp(`Code`) VALUE (employeeID);
-- If no any row, leave loop
IF finished THEN
INSERT INTO temp(`Code`) VALUE ("112");
CLOSE hrEmployee;
LEAVE get_employee;
END IF;
-- insert temp
INSERT INTO temp(`Code`) VALUE ("111");
END LOOP get_employee;
SELECT * FROM temp;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
Execute: CALL at_getShift();
Result is:
2 rows in temp table ( 1 null, 1 is 112)
Please kindly help me to resolve this trouble.
In a SQL statement in MySQL stored program, the references to procedure variables take precedence over references to columns.
That is, when an identifier in a SQL statement matches a procedure variable, the SQL statement references the procedure variable.
References that are qualified with the table name or table alias reference columns from the table, even when there is a procedure variable with the same name.
Demonstration:
CREATE TABLE emp (id INT);
INSERT INTO emp (id) VALUES (101),(102);
DELIMITER $$
CREATE PROCEDURE foo()
BEGIN
DECLARE id INT DEFAULT 3;
-- this query returns 3 for all rows in emp
-- because "id" is a reference to the procedure variable
SELECT id FROM emp WHERE id = 3;
-- this query returns no rows
-- because "id" is a reference to the procedure variable
SELECT id FROM emp WHERE id = 101;
-- this query references columns in the table because
-- references to "id" are qualified
SELECT t.id FROM emp t WHERE t.id = 101;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
CALL foo;
The first query returns value of procedure variable for all rows from emp
id
-----
3
3
second query returns no rows
id
-----
third query returns references "id" column in table:
id
-----
101
The takeaway are two "best practices":
qualify all column references in a SQL statement in a procedure
and
procedure variable names should differ from names of columns, the usual pattern is to use a distinctive prefix on variables. As a trivial example: v_id, v_name, etc.
Both of these practices make it easier for a human reader to decipher a procedure.
Distinctive naming of procedure variables does reduce the chances of collisions, but does not invalidate the "best practice" of qualifying all column references in SQL statements. Both of those serve to make the author's intent more clear to the human reader.
EDIT:
I attempted to answer the question I thought you were asking... "Why is my procedure not doing what I expect it to?".
Beyond the answer to the question you asked... the operation that your procedure appears to be performing (populating a temporary table with a set of rows) that operation could be performed much faster and more efficiently by processing the rows as a set, rather than issuing painfully inefficient individual insert statements for each row. In terms of performance, a cursor loop processing RBAR (row-by-agonizing-row) is going to eat your lunch. And your lunch box.
DELIMITER $$
CREATE PROCEDURE `at_getShift_faster`()

-- ignore warning message when dropping a table that does not exist
DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR 1305 BEGIN END;
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS temp;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS temp(`Code` VARCHAR(255));
INSERT INTO temp (`Code`)
SELECT h.EmployeeID
FROM h_employees h
WHERE h.EmployeeID IN ('100013', '100014')

SELECT * FROM temp;

mysql trigger using two tables

I Have a database called 'lms' with two tables loan and value, table loan has: loan_amount, yearly_intrest, loan type; table value has value_id,value_name, value_amount.
What i want is for my trigger to calculate the yearly interest in the loan table using the interest rate(value_amount) from the other table value where the loan_type(from loan table) is equal to the value (from Value table)
I tried this, it needs some help
-- Trigger DDL Statements
DELIMITER $$
USE `lms`$$
CREATE
DEFINER=`root`#`localhost`
TRIGGER `lms`.`updateloan`
BEFORE INSERT ON `lms`.`loan` INNER JOIN 'lms'.'value'
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
l.loan_type ="Computer Loan"
SET l.yearly_intrest = (l.loan_amount *(v.value_amount/100))
WHERE l.loan_type=v.value_name;
END$$
Table value contains two value_names Computer and Motor vehicle with value amounts of 2, 5
i hope my explanation is clear enough
I have not tried this but it should work -
DELIMITER $$
USE `lms`$$
CREATE
DEFINER=`root`#`localhost`
TRIGGER `lms`.`updateloan`
BEFORE INSERT ON `lms`.`loan`
FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
SET NEW.yearly_interest = (SELECT NEW.loan_amount * value_amount/100 FROM `lms`.`value` WHERE value_name = NEW.loan_type);
END$$
