In this article I will explain with an example, how to delete data from MySQL database with Stored Procedure using Dapper library in ASP.Net MVC.
Note: For more details on how to use MySQL database in ASP.Net MVC, please refer my article Download, install and reference MySQL Connector in ASP.Net MVC.
 
 

Installing Dapper package using Nuget

In order to install Dapper library using Nuget, please refer my article Install Dapper from Nuget in Visual Studio.
 
 

Database

I have made use of the following table Customers with the schema as follows.

I have already inserted few records in the table.

Stored Procedure

The following Stored Procedure will be used to Delete data from the MySQL database table.
This Stored Procedure accepts CustomerId parameter, which is used to DELETE the records in Customers Table.
DELIMITER //
CREATE PROCEDURE Customers_DeleteCustomer(
    IN CustomerId INT
)
BEGIN
    DELETE FROM Customers
    WHERE Customers.CustomerId = CustomerId;
END//
DELIMITER ;
 
 

Model

The Model class consists of following property.
public class CustomerModel
{
    public int CustomerId { get; set; }
}
 
 

Namespaces

You will need to import the following namespaces.
using Dapper;
using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using MySql.Data.MySqlClient;
 
 

Controller

The Controller consists of following Action methods.

Action method for handling GET operation

Inside this Action method, simply the View is returned.
 

Action method for handling POST operation

This method accepts CustomerModel class object as a parameter.
Inside this Action method, the name of the Stored Procedure and the CustomerModel class object is passed to the Execute method of the Dapper library which then deletes the record from the Customers Table.
Note: For more details on Execute method, please refer my article Understanding Dapper Execute in MySQL in C# and VB.Net.
 
Finally, based on whether the record is deleted or not an appropriate message is set into ViewBag object and View is returned.
public class HomeController : Controller
{
    // GET: Home
    public ActionResult Index()
    {
        return View();
    }
 
    [HttpPost]
    public ActionResult Index(CustomerModel customer)
    {
        string spName = "Customers_DeleteCustomer";
        string constr = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["constr"].ConnectionString;
        using (MySqlConnection con = new MySqlConnection(constr))
        {
            int i = con.Execute(spName, customer, commandType: CommandType.StoredProcedure);
            if (i > 0)
            {
                ViewBag.Message = "Customer record deleted.";
            }
            else
            {
                ViewBag.Message = "Customer not found.";
            }
        }
        return View();
    }
}
 
 

View

HTML Markup

Inside the View, in the very first line the CustomerModel class is declared as Model for the View.
The View consists of an HTML Form which has been created using the Html.BeginForm method with the following parameters.
ActionName – Name of the Action. In this case the name is Index.
ControllerName – Name of the Controller. In this case the name is Home.
FormMethod – It specifies the Form Method i.e. GET or POST. In this case it will be set to POST.
The View also consists of an HTML Table, which consists of a TextBox created using Html.TextBoxFor method and a Submit Button.
 

Submitting the Form

When the Submit Button is clicked then, the ViewBag object is checked for NULL and if it is not NULL then, the value of the ViewBag object is displayed using JavaScript Alert Message Box.
@model Dapper_Delete_SP_MySQL_MVC.Models.CustomerModel
@{
    Layout = null;
}
 
<!DOCTYPE html>
 
<html>
<head>
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
    <title>Index</title>
</head>
<body>
    @using (Html.BeginForm("Index", "Home", FormMethod.Post))
    {
        <table cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1">
            <tr>
                <td style="width: 60px">
                    Id<br />
                    @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.CustomerId, new { Style = "width:30px;" })
                </td>
                <td style="width: 200px">
                    <br />
                    <input type="submit" value="Delete" />
                </td>
            </tr>
        </table>
        if (ViewBag.Message != null)
        {
            <script type="text/javascript">
                window.onload = function () {
                    alert("@ViewBag.Message");
                };
            </script>
        }
    }
</body>
</html>
