Can you use Webmatrix.Data to connect to MySql stored procedures? - mysql

I know that you can use Webmatrix.Data with MySql, but is it able to be used with MySql's stored procs? It does with SqlServer's procs obviously, not with Oracle's procs and I need to know if it will with MySql?
Thanks!

The CommandType for the DbCommand object that the Database helper wraps is CommandType.Text, so you can't simply pass the name of a stored procedure into the Query or Execute method. You have to prefix it with EXECUTE (or EXEC) with SQL Server. The equivalent for MySQL seems to be CALL. I suspect there is something similar for Oracle too.

how to convert a sql server store procedure to mysql procedure?

I have to convert store procedure from that is written in sql server, to mysql procedure. I know the their general differences like AS, GO and ; but still mysql procedure has not the same result as sql server. It is noteworthy that tables and their data are the same. can anyone say other differences between them?
I will thank you if you tell me correct answer in this case
I figure out for using mysql parameters like IN b INT in procedure code, I must use b directly! not #b like sql server

How to update stored procedures in multiple databases in mysql

I am very new to mysql and I have I a situation where I need to update all my stored procedure in all my database. for example I have 10 database just say:
client_1,client_2,client_3,.....client_10.
Every database have same stored procedure just say:
proc_1,proc_2,proc_3,proc_4.
So if I made any changes to one of my stored procedure then it should get updated in all other database So that I don't have to do it manually.
I know the similar question have been asked but I am looking for some different approach. So what I want is some kind of mysql query or something like that in which we will pass the name of the database like:
client_1, client_3, client_8
and changes will only made to this databases.
I am using heidiSql- 10.2 with MySQL 5.6.
Thanks.
I am not entirely sure what you are wanting to do but I think you want something like this. First save the definition of your stored procedure to a file. Make sure it doesn't contain an schema references like client1.tableA. You want it to be able to run in any copy of your schema correctly. Be sure to follow the syntax rules defined by MySQL
Defining Stored Programs
Then once the stored procedure is saved you can use the mysql command line to run it for each client you want to update.
You would first connect to the database server using the mysql command line. Then issue a USE command to activate the first client database. Then run the script using the SOURCE command. See MySQL Batch Commands Then repeat for each client.
USE client1;
source c:\temp\storedProcedure.sql
USE client2;
source c:\temp\storedProcedure.sql
If this is not exactly what you needed hopefully it gives you some ideas to get you what you need.
Note that you could do the connection to the database and execute these commands via batch file instead of manually if you wanted to.
There are no statements in MySQL that create/drop/alter multiple procedures at once. You can only change one procedure at a time.
You can write an SQL script that includes a series of statements. But it's up to you to write that script.
You may write some script in Python (or other favorite language) that outputs the SQL script.
I don't know HeidiSQL, but I doubt it has any facility to apply the same change to many procedures. Nor does any other MySQL client that I'm aware of.

Stored procedure gone missing in SQL Server 2008

I created a stored procedure which ran successfully but I can't seem to find the procedure in the usual place within the database and I can't execute the procedure in Excel but I can drop the procedure.
I am confused.
I have written many stored procedures and never had this problem. Thanks in advance.
Sounds like something I've done before: inadvertently added the stored proc to the master database rather than the database I thought I was working in.
Check the master database under System Databases.
To prevent this in the future, you may want to consider adding a use dbname statement in the script.

Grouping SQL queries

Sometimes an application requires quite a few SQL queries before it can do anything useful. I was wondering if there is a way to send those as a batch to the database, to avoid the overhead of going back and forth between the client and the server?
If there is no standard way to do it, I'm using the python bindings of MySQL.
PS: I know MySQL has an executemany() function, but that's only for the same query executed many times with different parameters, right?
This process works best on inserts
Make all you SQL queries into Stored Procedures. These eventually will become child stored procedures
Create Master Store procedure to run all other Stored Procedures.
Modify master Stored procedure to accept values required by child Stored Procedures
Modify master Stored procedure to accept commands using "if" statements to know which
child stored procedures to run
If you need return data from Database use 1 stored procedure at the time.

how do I create a stored procedure from within a stored procedure

I would like to manage the deploy of stored procedures by first inserting them into a table, then, when it's time to deploy.... use a stored procedure to create all of the stored procedures. (Execute seems to be limited to CRUD)
This is not possible with MySQL. In stored procedures and functions you have even more restrictions in language use then in prepared statements.
The list of acceptable commands for prepared statements (see manual) does not include create procedure.
I'm not sure if this is what you looking for, but its has a good example and a reference at the bottom.
