I personally am NOT a DBA. But as a one person company I do everything from product planning, feature prioritization, architecture, documentation, development, deployment, DBA and monitoring. Below are some helpful commands in MySQL / MariaDB that I found useful when I do DBA activities. This is more of a blog post for my own reference.

Connect to database:

mysql -u root -p

Get a list of databases:

show databases;

Use a particular database

use <DATABASE_NAME>;

Show tables in current database

show tables;

Get a list of all the stored procedures in all the databases

SHOW PROCEDURE STATUS;

or

SELECT 
    routine_schema as "Database",
    routine_name
FROM 
    information_schema.routines
WHERE 
    routine_type = 'PROCEDURE'
ORDER BY 
    routine_schema ASC, 
    routine_name ASC;

Get a list of stored procedures in all the databases that match a certain string pattern.

SHOW PROCEDURE STATUS LIKE '%pattern%';

or

SELECT 
    routine_schema as "Database",
    routine_name
FROM 
    information_schema.routines
WHERE 
    routine_type = 'PROCEDURE'
    and routine_name LIKE '%pattern%'
ORDER BY 
    routine_schema ASC, 
    routine_name ASC;

The second select statement can be modified to limit to a certain database by including filters in the where clause on “routine_schema”.

SELECT 
    routine_schema as "Database",
    routine_name
FROM 
    information_schema.routines
WHERE 
    routine_type = 'PROCEDURE'
    and routine_name LIKE '%pattern%'
    and routine_schema = 'database_name'
ORDER BY 
    routine_schema ASC, 
    routine_name ASC;

Hoping this helps someone!

Never trust the scammers who claim to have exchanged identities and who use bank accounts on other people’s name. They are either identity thieves / impersonators / anonymous hackers. Example – Erra’s, Thota’s, Bojja’s, Uttam’s, Srinivas’s etc… the R&AW hackers / spies.
