Mastering Scala Doobie: Creating and Inserting into a Temp Table

If you're diving into the world of Scala and Doobie, you might have encountered a common issue related to temporary tables. Specifically, it's essential to know how to create a temp table, perform inserts, and retrieve data from it without encountering errors like Invalid object name '# temp'. In this guide, we will explore a solution to this problem to ensure your Scala application interacts seamlessly with SQL Server.

The Problem: Temporary Table Connection Error

While working with SQL Server, you may find that when you create a temporary table, the connection is often severed between your CREATE statement and any subsequent INSERT operations. This leads to errors such as:

This error indicates that the temp table # temp is not recognized. The expected behavior is to successfully create the temp table, insert values into it, and then query that table to retrieve the inserted data as a list.



The Solution: A Step-by-Step Approach

After grappling with this issue, a clear solution emerges that ensures your temp table and its data persist correctly throughout your transaction. Below, we break down the solution into manageable parts:

Creating and Inserting into the Temp Table

Define the SQL Commands: We'll define our SQL commands as fragments. This way, we can chain them together effectively.
