How to use stored procedures with Django backend? - django

Question

I have created a stored procedure in SSMS for the query SELECT * FROM TABLE and now I want to create a Django API and test it. What is the entire procedure?
My script from SQL Stored Procedure:
USE [test]
GO
/****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[spGetAll] ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
-- =============================================
-- Author: <Author,,Name>
-- Create date: <Create Date,,>
-- Description: <Description,,>
-- =============================================
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[spGetAll]
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
-- Insert statements for procedure here
SELECT * from app_comment
END
GO

Answer 1

In order to call a stored procedure do the following-
from django.db import connection
def dictfetchall(cursor):
columns = [col[0] for col in cursor.description]
return [
dict(zip(columns, row))
for row in cursor.fetchall()
]
with connection.cursor() as cursor:
cursor.callproc("stored_procedure", [arg1, arg2, arg3])
data = dictfetchall(cursor)

Answer 2

I could not get alamshafi2263's answer to work, giving various syntax errors. My procedure takes a parameter but returns no value.
Here is what i used successfully:
from django.db import connection
local_cursor = connection.cursor()
call_definition = f'call public.ap_update_holding_value({transaction_id})'
local_cursor.execute(call_definition)
In the above transaction_id is the parameter value.
Tested with Django==3.1.13, psycopg2==2.9.1
