Create a MySQL stored procedure, which takes the name of the database as its parameter, to list the tables with detailed information in a particular database.


Suppose currently we are using a database named ‘query’ and it is having the following tables in it −

mysql> Show tables in query;
+-----------------+
| Tables_in_query |
+-----------------+
| student_detail  |
| student_info    |
+-----------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Now, following is a stored procedure, which will accept the name of the database as its parameter and give us the list of tables with detailed information −

mysql> DELIMITER//
mysql> CREATE procedure tb_list(db_name varchar(40))
   -> BEGIN
   -> SET @z := CONCAT('Select * from information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = ','\'',db_name,'\'');
   -> Prepare stmt from @z;
   -> EXECUTE stmt;
   -> END //
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.06 sec)

Now invoke this stored procedure by providing the name of the database as its parameter −

mysql> DELIMITER;
mysql> CALL tb_list('query')\G
