Triggering a shell script from MySQL without any 3rd party libraries Is it possible to call a bash script file in linux using a trigger in MySQL?
I've been searching for the answer online and I ran into this articles:

But I was wondering if it's possible to do it without any 3rd party libraries like UDF for example. Any help is appreciated.
Nothing native unless using the MySQL Client where you can issue \! {shell command}.

e.g.

mysql&gt; \! pwd
