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
Step 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;
Step 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
Step 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 ;
Step 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
Step 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:
- create_product - Insert new product
- get_product - Retrieve by ID
- update_product - Update existing product
- 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:
- Creates an orders_audit table if not exists
- Captures INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE operations
- Records old/new values, user, and timestamp
