Stored Procedure Generator

Generate production-ready stored procedures for PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQL Server with proper error handling, transaction management, and security best practices.

Prerequisites

• Database connection credentials (host, port, database, user, password)
• Appropriate permissions: CREATE PROCEDURE, CREATE FUNCTION, EXECUTE
• Target database type identified (PostgreSQL, MySQL, or SQL Server)

Instructions

1. Identify Database Type and Requirements

Determine the target database and procedure requirements:

-- PostgreSQL: Check version and extensions
SELECT version();
\dx

-- MySQL: Check version and settings
SELECT VERSION();
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'sql_mode';

-- SQL Server: Check version and edition
SELECT @@VERSION;

2. Generate Stored Procedure

PostgreSQL Function (PL/pgSQL):

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION get_user_by_id(p_user_id INTEGER)
RETURNS TABLE(id INTEGER, username VARCHAR, email VARCHAR, created_at TIMESTAMP)
LANGUAGE plpgsql
AS $$
BEGIN
    RETURN QUERY
    SELECT u.id, u.username, u.email, u.created_at
    FROM users u
    WHERE u.id = p_user_id;

    IF NOT FOUND THEN
        RAISE EXCEPTION 'User with ID % not found', p_user_id
            USING ERRCODE = 'P0002';
    END IF;
END;
$$;

MySQL Stored Procedure:

DELIMITER //
CREATE PROCEDURE GetUserById(IN p_user_id INT)
BEGIN
    DECLARE user_exists INT DEFAULT 0;

    SELECT COUNT(*) INTO user_exists FROM users WHERE id = p_user_id;

    IF user_exists = 0 THEN
        SIGNAL SQLSTATE '45000'  # 45000 = configured value
            SET MESSAGE_TEXT = 'User not found';
    END IF;

    SELECT id, username, email, created_at
    FROM users
    WHERE id = p_user_id;
END //
DELIMITER ;

SQL Server Stored Procedure (T-SQL):

CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.GetUserById
    @UserId INT
AS
BEGIN
    SET NOCOUNT ON;

    IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM dbo.Users WHERE Id = @UserId)
    BEGIN
        RAISERROR('User with ID %d not found', 16, 1, @UserId);
        RETURN;
    END

    SELECT Id, Username, Email, CreatedAt
    FROM dbo.Users
    WHERE Id = @UserId;
END;
GO

3. Add Transaction Management

PostgreSQL with Transaction:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION transfer_funds(
    p_from_account INTEGER,
    p_to_account INTEGER,
    p_amount NUMERIC(15,2)
)
RETURNS BOOLEAN
LANGUAGE plpgsql
AS $$
BEGIN
    -- Debit source account
    UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance - p_amount
    WHERE id = p_from_account AND balance >= p_amount;

    IF NOT FOUND THEN
        RAISE EXCEPTION 'Insufficient funds or invalid source account';
    END IF;

    -- Credit destination account
    UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance + p_amount
    WHERE id = p_to_account;

    IF NOT FOUND THEN
        RAISE EXCEPTION 'Invalid destination account';
    END IF;

    RETURN TRUE;
EXCEPTION
    WHEN OTHERS THEN
        RAISE;
END;
$$;

MySQL with Transaction:

DELIMITER //
CREATE PROCEDURE TransferFunds(
    IN p_from_account INT,
    IN p_to_account INT,
    IN p_amount DECIMAL(15,2)
)
BEGIN
    DECLARE EXIT HANDLER FOR SQLEXCEPTION
    BEGIN
        ROLLBACK;
        RESIGNAL;
    END;

    START TRANSACTION;

    UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance - p_amount
    WHERE id = p_from_account AND balance >= p_amount;

    IF ROW_COUNT() = 0 THEN
        SIGNAL SQLSTATE '45000'  # 45000 = configured value
            SET MESSAGE_TEXT = 'Insufficient funds';
    END IF;

    UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance + p_amount
    WHERE id = p_to_account;

    COMMIT;
END //
DELIMITER ;

4. Validate Syntax

Use the validation script to check procedure syntax:

# Validate PostgreSQL procedure
python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/stored_procedure_syntax_validator.py \
    --db-type postgresql \
    --file procedure.sql

# Validate MySQL procedure
python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/stored_procedure_syntax_validator.py \
    --db-type mysql \
    --file procedure.sql

5. Deploy to Database

# Deploy to PostgreSQL
python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/stored_procedure_deployer.py \
    --db-type postgresql \
    --host localhost \
    --database mydb \
    --file procedure.sql

# Deploy to MySQL
python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/stored_procedure_deployer.py \
    --db-type mysql \
    --host localhost \
    --database mydb \
    --file procedure.sql

Output

• SQL procedure file with proper syntax for target database
• Validation report confirming syntax correctness
• Deployment confirmation with execution results
• Rollback script for procedure removal

Error Handling

Error	Cause	Solution
permission denied	Missing CREATE PROCEDURE privilege	GRANT CREATE PROCEDURE ON database TO user;
syntax error	Invalid SQL for database type	Use database-specific syntax validator
function already exists	Procedure exists without OR REPLACE	Add OR REPLACE or DROP first
undefined column	Referenced column doesn't exist	Verify table schema before deployment
transaction aborted	Error during transaction	Check EXCEPTION handler and ROLLBACK logic

Examples

Generate CRUD procedures for a table:

User: Generate CRUD stored procedures for the 'products' table in PostgreSQL

Claude: I'll create four procedures for the products table:
1. create_product - Insert new product
2. get_product - Retrieve by ID
3. update_product - Update existing product
4. delete_product - Soft delete product

Create audit trigger:

User: Create a trigger to log all changes to the orders table

Claude: I'll create an audit trigger that:
1. Creates an orders_audit table if not exists
2. Captures INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE operations
3. Records old/new values, user, and timestamp
