MySQL - SHOW FUNCTION STATUS Statement
MySQL SHOW FUNCTION STATUS Statement
A function is a block of organized, reusable code that is used to perform a single, related action. Functions provide better modularity for your application and a high degree of code reusing. You can create a stored function using the CREATE FUNCTION statement.
The MySQL SHOW FUNCTION STATUS statement displays the features of the stored functions. It provides information such as −
- Name of the procedure.
- Database in which it is created.
- Type of the procedure.
- Creator of the procedure.
- Modification dates etc.…
Syntax
Following is the syntax the SHOW FUNCTION STATUS statement −
SHOW FUNCTION STATUS [LIKE 'pattern' | WHERE expr]
Example
Following statement displays the characteristics of stored functions −
SHOW FUNCTION STATUS\G;
Output
The above query produces the output shown below −
************** 1. row ************** Db: test Name: areaOfCircle Type: FUNCTION Definer: root@localhost Modified: ------------------- Created: ------------------- Security_type: DEFINER Comment: character_set_client: cp850 collation_connection: cp850_general_ci Database Collation: utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci ************** 2. row ************** Db: test Name: demo Type: FUNCTION Definer: root@localhost Modified: ------------------- Created: ------------------- Security_type: DEFINER Comment: character_set_client: cp850 collation_connection: cp850_general_ci Database Collation: utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci ************** 3. row ************** Db: test Name: sample Type: FUNCTION Definer: root@localhost Modified: ------------------- Created: ------------------- Security_type: DEFINER Comment: character_set_client: cp850 collation_connection: cp850_general_ci Database Collation: utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci ************** 4. row ************** Db: test Name: while_example Type: FUNCTION Definer: root@localhost Modified: ------------------- Created: ------------------- Security_type: DEFINER Comment: character_set_client: cp850 collation_connection: cp850_general_ci Database Collation: utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci ************** 5. row ************** Db: test Name: test Type: FUNCTION Definer: root@localhost Modified: ------------------- Created: ------------------- Security_type: DEFINER Comment: character_set_client: cp850 collation_connection: cp850_general_ci Database Collation: utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
The LIKE clause
Using the LIKE clause, you can specify a pattern to retrieve information about the functions.
Example
Assume we have created a new database and created 3 functions in it using the CREATE statement as shown below −
CREATE demo; use dem; database changed DELIMITER // CREATE FUNCTION TestAdd(a INT, b INT) RETURNS INT DETERMINISTIC BEGIN DECLARE res INT; SET res=a+b; RETURN res; END// Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.29 sec) CREATE FUNCTION TestSub (a INT, b INT) RETURNS INT DETERMINISTIC BEGIN DECLARE res INT; SET res=a-b; RETURN res; END// Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.29 sec) CREATE FUNCTION TestMul (a INT, b INT) RETURNS INT DETERMINISTIC BEGIN DECLARE res INT; SET res=a*b; RETURN res; END// Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.29 sec) CREATE FUNCTION TestDiv (a INT, b INT) RETURNS INT DETERMINISTIC BEGIN DECLARE res INT; SET res=a/b; RETURN res; END// Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.29 sec) DELIMITER ;
Following query retrieves the information about the procedures whose name starts with the word "Test".
SHOW FUNCTION STATUS LIKE 'Test%'\G;
Output
Once the query is executed, it will produce the following output −
************** 1. row ************** Db: demo Name: TestAdd Type: FUNCTION Definer: root@localhost Modified: 2021-05-14 06:37:04 Created: 2021-05-14 06:37:04 Security_type: DEFINER Comment: character_set_client: cp850 collation_connection: cp850_general_ci Database Collation: utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci ************** 2. row ************** Db: demo Name: TestDiv Type: FUNCTION Definer: root@localhost Modified: 2021-05-14 06:37:22 Created: 2021-05-14 06:37:22 Security_type: DEFINER Comment: character_set_client: cp850 collation_connection: cp850_general_ci Database Collation: utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci ************** 3. row ************** Db: demo Name: TestMul Type: FUNCTION Definer: root@localhost Modified: 2021-05-14 06:37:16 Created: 2021-05-14 06:37:16 Security_type: DEFINER Comment: character_set_client: cp850 collation_connection: cp850_general_ci Database Collation: utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci ************** 4. row ************** Db: demo Name: TestSub Type: FUNCTION Definer: root@localhost Modified: 2021-05-14 06:37:10 Created: 2021-05-14 06:37:10 Security_type: DEFINER Comment: character_set_client: cp850 collation_connection: cp850_general_ci Database Collation: utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci
The WHERE clause
You can use the WHERE clause of the SHOW PROCEDURE STATUS statements to retrieve information about the procedures which match the specified condition.
Example
Suppose we have created a table named Emp in the database using the CREATE statement as shown below −
CREATE TABLE Emp(Name VARCHAR(255), DOB DATE, Location VARCHAR(255));
Now, let's insert some records into the Emp table using the INSERT statement −
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES ('Amit', DATE('1970-01-08'), 'Hyderabad'), ('Sumith', DATE('1990-11-02'), 'Vishakhapatnam'), ('Sudha', DATE('1980-11-06'), 'Vijayawada');
Assume we have created a getDob() function which accepts the name of the employee, retrieves and returns the value of DOB column.
DELIMITER // CREATE FUNCTION test.getDob(emp_name VARCHAR(50)) RETURNS DATE DETERMINISTIC BEGIN declare dateOfBirth DATE; select DOB into dateOfBirth from test.emp where Name = emp_name; return dateOfBirth; END// DELIMITER ;
In the same way if we have created another table shown below −
CREATE TABLE student (Name VARCHAR(100), Math INT, English INT, Science INT, History INT);
Let us insert some records into the student table −
INSERT INTO student values ('Raman', 95, 89, 85, 81), ('Rahul' , 90, 87, 86, 81), ('Mohit', 90, 85, 86, 81), ('Saurabh', NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL );
Following function updates the above create table −
Create Function test.tbl_Update(S_name Varchar(50), M1 INT, M2 INT, M3 INT, M4 INT) RETURNS INT DETERMINISTIC BEGIN UPDATE student SET Math = M1, English = M2, Science = M3, History = M4 WHERE Name = S_name; RETURN 1; END // DELIMITER ;
You can verify the list of functions in a database using the SHOW FUNCTION STATUS statement as shown below −
SHOW FUNCTION STATUS WHERE db = 'test'\G;
Output
The above query produces the following output −
************** 1. row ************** Db: test Name: getDob Type: FUNCTION Definer: root@localhost Modified: 2021-03-21 11:21:12 Created: 2021-03-13 14:45:36 Security_type: DEFINER Comment: This is a sample comment character_set_client: cp850 collation_connection: cp850_general_ci Database Collation: utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci ************** 2. row ************** Db: test Name: tbl_Update Type: FUNCTION Definer: root@localhost Modified: 2021-03-13 22:16:05 Created: 2021-03-13 22:16:05 Security_type: DEFINER Comment: character_set_client: cp850 collation_connection: cp850_general_ci Database Collation: utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci
Following queries deletes/drops the above created functions −
DROP FUNCTION getDob; DROP FUNCTION tbl_update;
Since we have deleted both the functions. If you verify the list of function again you will get an empty set −
SHOW FUNCTION STATUS WHERE db = 'test'; Empty set (0.00 sec)
