No: 8 TRIGGERS
Date:

Aim:
To create, implement and execute triggers in MySQL.

Triggers:
A MySQL trigger is a stored program (with queries) which is executed
automatically to respond to a specific event such as insertion, updation or
deletion occurring in a table.
Parts of Triggers:
The trigger has three basic parts:
a. Triggering event (or) statement.
b. Trigger restriction.
c. Trigger action (or) Trigger body.
a. Triggering Event (or) Statement:
It specifies the DML statement and fires the triggers body. It also
specifies the table to which the trigger is associated.
b. Trigger Restriction:
It specifies the restrictions on the trigger to be achieved.
c. Trigger Action (or) Trigger Body:
It is a PL/SQL block that is executed when the triggering statement is
used.
Types of Triggers:
1. Before Insert: It is activated before the insertion of data into the table.
2. After Insert: It is activated after the insertion of data into the table.
3. Before Update: It is activated before the update of data into the table.
4. After Update: It is activated after the update of data into the table.
5. Before Delete: It is activated before the deletion of data into the table.
6. After Delete: It is activated after the deletion of data into the table.
Syntax for creating a trigger:
CREATE TRIGGER trigger_name
{BEFORE | AFTER} {INSERT | UPDATE | DELETE}
ON table_name FOR EACH ROW
trigger_body;

Query Execution:
Create the table and inserting a values into it:
USE test;
CREATE TABLE Employee (
EmployeeID INT PRIMARY KEY,
Name VARCHAR(255),
Salary DECIMAL(10, 2)
);
INSERT INTO Employee (EmployeeID, Name, Salary)
VALUES
(1, 'Madhumitha', 50000),
(2, 'mohithaa', 60000),
(3, 'karthika', 55000),
(4, 'abi', 62000),
(5, 'sanga', 58000),
(6, 'pavani', 63000);

CREATE TABLE Employee_Log (


LogID INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
EmployeeID INT,
Name VARCHAR(255),
Salary DECIMAL(10, 2));
After insert:
Create the trigger:
DELIMITER //
CREATE TRIGGER after_insert_trigger
AFTER INSERT ON Employee
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO Employee_Log (EmployeeID, Name, Salary)
VALUES (NEW.EmployeeID, NEW.Name, NEW.Salary);
END;
//
DELIMITER ;

Inserting the Rows:


INSERT INTO Employee VALUES (8, 'bb', 45000);
select * from Employee_Log;

Output:

Before insert:
DELIMITER //
CREATE TRIGGER before_insert_trigger
BEFORE INSERT ON Employee
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
IF NEW.Salary < 50000 THEN
SET NEW.Salary = 50000; -- Set minimum salary to 50000
END IF;
END;
//
DELIMITER ;
INSERT INTO Employee VALUES (7, 'bb', 45000);
SELECT * FROM Employee;

Output:

Before update:
DELIMITER //
CREATE TRIGGER before_update_trigger
BEFORE UPDATE ON Employee
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
IF NEW.Salary < 50000 THEN
SET NEW.Salary = 50000;
END IF;
END;
//
DELIMITER ;
Output:

After update:
DELIMITER //
CREATE TRIGGER after_update_trigger
AFTER UPDATE ON Employee
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO Employee_Log (EmployeeID, Name, Salary)
VALUES (NEW.EmployeeID, NEW.Name, NEW.Salary);
END;
//
DELIMITER ;
UPDATE Employee SET Salary = 45000 WHERE EmployeeID = 1;

Output:
Before delete:
DELIMITER //
CREATE TRIGGER before_delete_trigger
BEFORE DELETE ON Employee
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO Employee_Log (EmployeeID, Name, Salary, Action)
VALUES (OLD.EmployeeID, OLD.Name, OLD.Salary, 'BEFORE DELETE');
END;
//
DELIMITER ;

Output:

After delete:
DELIMITER //
CREATE TRIGGER after_delete_trigger
AFTER DELETE ON Employee
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO Employee_Log (EmployeeID, Name, Salary, Action)
VALUES (OLD.EmployeeID, OLD.Name, OLD.Salary, 'DELETE');
END;
//
DELIMITER ;

Output:

Result:
Thus, creating, implementing and executing triggers in MySQL was
executed and verified successfully.
