I'm new to stored procedure and I don't know much.
I'm testing with an example. Could you help me?
Here is my stored procedure
DELIMITER $$
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS dictionarytable$$
CREATE PROCEDURE dictionarytable(id VARCHAR(20),name
VARCHAR(20),work VARCHAR(20),place VARCHAR(20),mobileno
VARCHAR(20),bike VARCHAR(20),car VARCHAR(20),homeno
VARCHAR(20),dictionaytype VARCHAR(20),meaning VARCHAR(20),sentence
VARCHAR(20),antonym VARCHAR(20),synonym VARCHAR(20))
BEGIN
select
id,name,work,place,mobileno,bike,car,homeno,dictionaytype,meaning,sentence,antonym,synonym
from dictionary INTO dictionarytable; END $$
DELIMITER ;
I wanted id,name,13 columns from dictionary(table) to be called in stored procedure dictionarytable
the query in the Begin is wrong could you specify a query to display all 13 columns
You cannot pass field values INTO the procedure, you can pass them INTO user variables, declared variables or OUT paramaters. Note, that only one record can be passed when INTO clause is used. For example:
SET #var1 = NULL;
SELECT column1 INTO #var1 FROM table;
If you want to copy more then one record, then you can use INSERT INTO...SELECT statement to copy data-set to second table. For example:
INSERT INTO table2 SELECT column1 FROM table;
Also, if you want to use variables or parameters as identifiers (field names in your case), then you should use prepared statements.

I'm trying out MySQL procedures for the first time, however I can't figure out how to define the variable #index_ids for the life of me. It really doesn't like the SET.
CREATE PROCEDURE #indextemp
BEGIN
SET #index_ids = (SELECT DISTINCT index_id FROM visibility_index_processing_queue WHERE process_id IS NOT NULL);
SELECT #index_ids;
END
Problem is in CREATE PROCEDURE syntax, not in setting variable. You just have to add parentheses after procedure name. Here's working sample
delimiter $
CREATE PROCEDURE indextemp()
BEGIN
SET #index_ids = (SELECT DISTINCT index_id FROM visibility_index_processing_queue WHERE process_id IS NOT NULL);
SELECT #index_ids;
END$
delimiter ;
Sometimes use of delimiter character in procedure body can cause problems too. That's why I set delimiter to $ before creating procedure and revert it to default ; after I'm done.
Also notice that I have removed # from your procedure name. In sql # is used to insert comments. If for some reason you really want to use it in your name you have to do it like that
CREATE PROCEDURE `#indextemp`()
I want to store the output from a PROCEDURE into a global userdefined VAR so i can use this "list" in an other PROCEDURE on a different database.
Second, if the VAR is used on the 2nd PROCEDURE it should be unset, because on next CALL it will append or?
Thanks for response!
BEGIN
SELECT `steamid` FROM `mybb_users` WHERE `steamid`!='';
END
The SELECT shout go into a global variable, so i can use the result in another procedure...
As far as I know, you can't return a row set as a result of a procedure in MySQL.
I would solve it by creating a temporary table in the first procedure, and then use that temp table in the second procedure. Something like this:
delimiter $$
create procedure procedure1()
begin
drop table if exists temp_table;
create temporary table temp_table
select steamid from mybb_users where steamid != '';
-- add the appropriate indexes here
-- alter table temp_table
-- add index ...
end $$
create procedure procedure2()
begin
-- Do whatever you want to do with temp_table
end $$
delimiter ;
Remember:
A temporary table is visible only to the connection that created it.
If the connection is closed, the temporary table will be deleted.
Temporary tables are created directly to RAM (if they are not very big), so they can be pretty fast to read.
Each connection can create temporary tables with the same name, as each connection will have a "copy" of that temp table.
I'm work with store procedures, supose that I've the following procedure that return a value, and this value I use in other query.
CREATE PROCEUDRE filter(IN string varchar(1000), OUT salida varchar(1000))
BEGIN
.....
END
And I want make a insert with a select query for example:
INSERT INTO otherTable
SELECT filter(concat_group(column)) , value1,value2 from mytable
GROUP BY column,value,value2;
which is the correct way to do this?
Generally, you cannot call a stored procedure in the SQL select statement. What you want is like custom scalar functions.

i just created a stored procedure that take a parameter(example id) and copies columns related to that id from one table to another table.
How can i create stored procedure that takes sub query results as parameter,database is mysql..
This is my example..i want to pass query that select id from table to procedure..
DELIMITER $$
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS `test`.`sasi`$$
CREATE DEFINER=`root`#`localhost` PROCEDURE `sasi`(IN idno int(4))
BEGIN
INSERT INTO user5(id,email,address,fullname,gender,phonenumber)
SELECT id,email,address,fullname,gender,phonenumber FROM user1 where id != idno;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
call sasi(4);
To pass the results of a query into your stored procedure, wrap the query in brackets.
For example:
call sasi((select max(id) from sometable where somecondition));
You must make sure the query only returns one row and one column.
Edited:
If you want to call the procedure multiple times, once for each row, change your procedure to be a FUNCTION:
CREATE FUNCTION sasi(idno int(4))
RETURNS int(4)
BEGIN
INSERT INTO user5(id,email,address,fullname,gender,phonenumber)
SELECT id,email,address,fullname,gender,phonenumber FROM user1 where id != idno;
RETURN idno;
END
Then call it like this:
select sasi(id)
from table
where ...
sasi(id) will get called for every row matching the where clause.
A similar question about sql-server has been asked here. I'm wondering if its possible in MySql.
edit:
I want to use result set returned from procedure in view.
If you want to get result-set and use routine in FROM clause - NO. Stored routines (procedures or functions) in MySQL cannot return tables as result value.
But you can use functions as simple values, for example -
DELIMITER $$
CREATE FUNCTION mul10(Param1 INT)
RETURNS INT(11)
BEGIN
RETURN Param1 * 10;
END
$$
DELIMITER ;
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW view1
AS
SELECT mul10(2) AS column1;
SELECT column1 FROM view1;
