Chapter 9: Searching DDL and Build Scripts Searching the entire build script Let's start with the very simplest, but one of the most reliable methods of searching. You get out your build script. No build script? You generate it. If you like clicking at things, then use SSMS; otherwise use an automated procedure with PowerShell and SMO (remember that you have to regenerate the build script every time someone else makes an alteration). I still use a slightly retro stored procedure with DMO (see www. simple-talk.com/sql/database-administration/more-database-administration-anddevelopment-automation-using-dmo/); it works very well for me. Then, you read it into your favorite text editor and use the search facilities in it. This sounds clunky, but if your editor uses RegEx search, a lot can be done, including the automatic generation of lists. Personally, I am pretty happy with this approach, but it isn't always convenient. Figure 9-2: EditPad Pro. 264
265 Chapter 9: Searching DDL and Build Scripts The use of a query pane with the build script in it is almost as good, but you don't have the regular expressions, or the performance of a programmer's text editor. It also doesn't help with some of the more advanced operations that you might need. I like making lists, with the help of a RegEx string, of the lines, or context, where each match happened. I can then scan them quickly to find a particular occurrence (see the T-<strong>SQL</strong> Regular Expression Workbench – www.simple-talk.com/sql/t-sql-programming/tsql-regularexpression-workbench/ – for an introduction to RegEx). With a Grep tool, and <strong>SQL</strong>CMD, you can get lists of lines containing your search string. The "Help" system procedures: a toe in the water There are a number of "traditional" approaches to looking at your structural metadata, but they aren't going to help much. If you simply want a list of the most important objects, then just use … - – list all objects in sys.sysobjects table Execute sp_help ... but you will miss out on columns and indexes, and quite a few of the less important objects, as well. There are other similar stored procedures, some of which are listed below, which are fine for getting specific information, but not much use for answering questions like "Where, in the database, is a date conversion used with a German (104) date format?" The famous sp_helptext is fine for getting the text of a particular object but no more than that. There are also the following: • sp_helpconstraint – all constraint types, their user-defined or system-supplied name, the columns on which they have been defined, and the expression that defines the constraint • sp_helpdb – reports information about a specified database • sp_helpextendedproc – currently defined extended stored procedures
