Snowflake allows users to write custom application logic in JavaScript for two types of objects: Stored Procedures and User-Defined Functions (UDFs).
* Stored Procedures: Snowflake stored procedures can be written in JavaScript to encapsulate complex business logic and procedural operations.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE my_procedure()
RETURNS STRING
LANGUAGE JAVASCRIPT
EXECUTE AS CALLER
AS
$$
// JavaScript logic here
$$;
* User-Defined Functions (UDFs): Snowflake UDFs can be written in JavaScript to perform custom calculations or operations on data.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION my_function(x FLOAT)
RETURNS FLOAT
LANGUAGE JAVASCRIPT
AS
$$
return x * 2;
$$;
