MySQL – Before Delete Trigger

Table of content


In MySQL, a trigger is defined a special stored procedure that resides in the system catalogue, and is executed whenever an event is performed. It is called a special stored procedure as it does not require to be invoked explicitly like other stored procedures. The trigger acts automatically whenever the desired event is fired. Triggers are categorized into two types −

  • Before Triggers

  • After Triggers

These triggers can be a response to either insertion operation on a table, update operation or deletion operation. Thus, these special stored procedures respond whenever INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE statements are executed.

MySQL Before Delete Trigger

The Before Delete Trigger is a row-level trigger supported by the MySQL database. The Before Delete Trigger is executed right before a value is deleted from a row of a database table.

A row-level trigger is a type of trigger that goes off every time a row is modified. Simply, for every single transaction made in a table (like insertion, deletion, update), one trigger acts automatically.

With this trigger, whenever a DELETE statement is executed in the database, the value is deleted from a table first followed by execution of the trigger set.

Syntax

Following is the syntax to create the BEFORE DELETE trigger in MySQL −

CREATE TRIGGER trigger_name
BEFORE DELETE ON table_name FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
   -- trigger body
END;

Example

In this example, we are creating a table named ”CUSTOMERS”, to demonstrate the BEFORE DELETE trigger on, using the following query −

CREATE TABLE CUSTOMERS(
   ID INT NOT NULL,
   NAME VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL,
   AGE INT NOT NULL,
   ADDRESS VARCHAR(25),
   SALARY DECIMAL(18, 2),
   PRIMARY KEY(ID)
);

Insert values into this table created using the following INSERT statements −

INSERT INTO CUSTOMERS VALUES 
(1, ''Ramesh'', 32, ''Ahmedabad'', 2000.00 ),
(2, ''Khilan'', 25, ''Delhi'', 1500.00 ),
(3, ''Kaushik'', 23, ''Kota'', 2000.00 ),
(4, ''Chaitali'', 25, ''Mumbai'', 6500.00 ),
(5, ''Hardik'', 27, ''Bhopal'', 8500.00 ),
(6, ''Komal'', 22, ''MP'', 4500.00 ),
(7, ''Muffy'', 24, ''Indore'', 10000.00 );

Creating Another Table

Now, let us create another empty table to store all former customers after being deleted from the main table ”CUSTOMERS” −

CREATE TABLE OLD_CUSTOMERS (
   ID INT NOT NULL,
   NAME VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL,
   AGE INT NOT NULL,
   ADDRESS VARCHAR(25),
   SALARY DECIMAL(18, 2),
   PRIMARY KEY(ID)
);

Using the following CREATE TRIGGER statement, create a new trigger ”before_delete_trigger” on the CUSTOMERS table to delete the customer details from CUSTOMERS table and insert them into another table “OLD_CUSTOMERS” −

DELIMITER //
CREATE TRIGGER before_delete_trigger 
BEFORE DELETE ON CUSTOMERS 
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
 INSERT INTO OLD_CUSTOMERS VALUES 
 (OLD.ID, OLD.NAME, OLD.AGE, OLD.ADDRESS, OLD.SALARY);
END //
DELIMITER ;

Delete details of ”old” customers from the CUSTOMERS table using the regular DELETE statement as shown below −

DELETE FROM CUSTOMERS WHERE ID = 3;

Verification

To verify whether the details are deleted from the OCUSTOMERS table and added onto the OLD_CUSTOMERS table, let us try to retrieve both of their result-sets using SELECT queries.

The records in CUSTOMERS table are as follows −

ID NAME AGE ADDRESS SALARY
1 Ramesh 32 Ahmedabad 2000.00
2 Khilan 25 Delhi 1500.00
4 Chaitali 25 Mumbai 6500.00
5 Hardik 27 Bhopal 8500.00
6 Komal 22 Hyderabad 4500.00
7 Muffy 24 Indore 10000.00

The records in OLD_CUSTOMERS table are as follows −

ID NAME AGE ADDRESS SALARY
3 Kaushik 23 Kota 2000.00

As you can in the tables above, the data has been deleted from the CUSTOMERS table and added to the OLD_CUSTOMERS table.

Before Delete Trigger Using Client Program

We can also execute the Before Delete trigger statement using a client program, instead of SQL queries.

Syntax

To execute the Before Delete Trigger through a PHP program, we need to query the CREATE TRIGGER statement using the mysqli function query() as follows −

$sql = "CREATE TRIGGER before_delete_trigger BEFORE DELETE ON CUSTOMERS FOR EACH ROW 
BEGIN 
INSERT INTO OLD_CUSTOMERS VALUES (OLD.ID, OLD.NAME, OLD.AGE, OLD.ADDRESS, OLD.SALARY); 
END";
$mysqli->query($sql);

To execute the Before Delete Trigger through a JavaScript program, we need to query the CREATE TRIGGER statement using the query() function of mysql2 library as follows −

sql = `CREATE TRIGGER before_delete_trigger BEFORE DELETE ON CUSTOMERS FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO OLD_CUSTOMERS VALUES (OLD.ID, OLD.NAME, OLD.AGE, OLD.ADDRESS, OLD.SALARY);
END`;
con.query(sql);  

To execute the Before Delete Trigger through a Java program, we need to query the CREATE TRIGGER statement using the JDBC function execute() as follows −

String sql = "CREATE TRIGGER before_delete_trigger BEFORE DELETE ON CUSTOMERS FOR EACH ROW BEGIN INSERT INTO OLD_CUSTOMERS VALUES (OLD.ID, OLD.NAME, OLD.AGE, OLD.ADDRESS, OLD.SALARY);
END";
statement.execute(sql);

To execute the Before Delete Trigger through a python program, we need to query the CREATE TRIGGER statement using the execute() function of the MySQL Connector/Python as follows −

beforeDelete_trigger_query = ''CREATE TRIGGER {trigger_name}
BEFORE DELETE ON {table_name}
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO {another_table} VALUES (OLD.ID, OLD.NAME, OLD.AGE, OLD.ADDRESS, OLD.SALARY);
END''
cursorObj.execute(beforeDelete_trigger_query)

Example

Following are the programs −

$dbhost = ''localhost
$dbuser = ''root
$dbpass = ''password
$db = ''TUTORIALS
$mysqli = new mysqli($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass, $db);
if ($mysqli->connect_errno) {
    printf("Connect failed: %s
", $mysqli->connect_error); exit(); } //printf(''Connected successfully.
''); $sql = "CREATE TRIGGER before_delete_trigger BEFORE DELETE ON CUSTOMERS FOR EACH ROW BEGIN INSERT INTO OLD_CUSTOMERS VALUES (OLD.ID, OLD.NAME, OLD.AGE, OLD.ADDRESS, OLD.SALARY); END"; if ($mysqli->query($sql)) { printf("Trigger created successfully...!n"); } $q = "DELETE FROM CUSTOMERS WHERE ID = 3"; $result = $mysqli->query($q); if ($result == true) { printf("Delete query executed successfully ...!n"); } $q1 = "SELECT * FROM CUSTOMERS"; $res1 = $mysqli->query($q1); if ($res1->num_rows > 0) { printf("SELECT * FROM CUSTOMERS(verification): n"); while($r1 = $res1->fetch_assoc()){ printf("Id %d, Name: %s, Age: %d, Address %s, Salary %f", $r1[''ID''], $r1["NAME"], $r1[''AGE''], $r1["ADDRESS"], $r1["SALARY"],); printf("n"); } } $q2 = "SELECT * FROM OLD_CUSTOMERS"; $res2 = $mysqli->query($q2); if ($res2->num_rows > 0) { printf("SELECT * FROM OLD_CUSTOMER(verification): n"); while($r1 = $res2->fetch_assoc()){ printf("Id %d, Name: %s, Age: %d, Address %s, Salary %f", $r1[''ID''], $r1["NAME"], $r1[''AGE''], $r1["ADDRESS"], $r1["SALARY"],); printf("n"); } } if ($mysqli->error) { printf("Error message: ", $mysqli->error); } $mysqli->close();

Output

The output obtained is as follows −

Delete query executed successfully ...!
