How to parse stored procedure?

I have some complex procedure at MSSQL, single procedure file more than 1000 lines, and with multiple update/insert/delete operation, and I want to parse all of procedure to get operate table object, like as:

alter procedure UP_TestDemo
as
update dbo.Models set A = '1', B = '2' from Modules m where m.ID = '0001'
insert DB.dbo.emplyees( Name ) select Name from Person
 
Exec dbo.UP_LOG @ModifyDate = '05/04/2018'
...
go

Expected analytical results:

How can I get this result, any help please?

If I may submit a humble suggestion.

Acquire Textpad.

In SSMS, use the Object Explorer Details to select all your stored procedures, right click and select Script Stored Procedure As ->Create To -> File

Open the file with Textpad.

Use the Mark feature of the Find dialog and Mark all lines with create procedure and EXEC .

Copy all bookmarked lines and past into a new document.

Use the replace feature to search for all EXEC and replace it with \nEXEC. be sure you check the box "Regular Expression".

You now have a list of stored procedures with any Execs indented beneath them. I guess you could use the same for inserts but that depends on how messy your SQL is.

One method to parse stored procedures is with the Microsoft.SqlServer.TransactSql.ScriptDom. This is used internally for functionality provided by some SQL Server tools.

This parser uses a visitor pattern to interpret the T-SQL abstract syntax tree. The basic C# example below may help you get started for your specific needs. Generic T-SQL parsing is non-trivial due to the breadth and flexibility of the language but you ought to be able to develop a suitable one for your use case.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.TransactSql.ScriptDom;
using System.IO;
public static class ProcParser
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {

        var procDef = @"
alter procedure UP_TestDemo
as
update dbo.Models set A = '1', B = '2' from Modules m where m.ID = '0001'
insert DB.dbo.emplyees( Name ) select Name from Person

Exec dbo.UP_LOG @ModifyDate = '05/04/2018'
GO
";
        var statementTargets = ProcParser.GetStatementTargets(procDef);

        foreach(var statementTarget in statementTargets)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(statementTarget);
        }

    }

    public static List<String> GetStatementTargets(string storedProcedureDefinition)
    {

        StringReader reader = new StringReader(storedProcedureDefinition);

        //specify parser for appropriate SQL version
        var parser = new TSql140Parser(true);

        IList<ParseError> errors;
        TSqlFragment sqlFragment = parser.Parse(reader, out errors);

        if (errors.Count > 0)
        {
            throw new Exception("Error parsing stored procedure definition");
        }

        SQLVisitor sqlVisitor = new SQLVisitor();
        sqlFragment.Accept(sqlVisitor);

        return sqlVisitor.StatementTargets;

    }

}

internal class SQLVisitor : TSqlFragmentVisitor
{

    public List<String> StatementTargets = new List<String>();

    public override void ExplicitVisit(AlterProcedureStatement node)
    {
        node.AcceptChildren(this);
    }

    public override void ExplicitVisit(ExecuteStatement node)
    {
        ExecuteSpecification executeSpec = node.ExecuteSpecification;
        ExecutableProcedureReference executableEntity = (ExecutableProcedureReference)executeSpec.ExecutableEntity;
        var tokenText = getTokenText(executableEntity.ProcedureReference);
        StatementTargets.Add($"Execute SP: {tokenText}");
    }
    public override void ExplicitVisit(UpdateStatement node)
    {
        var tokenText = getTokenText(node.UpdateSpecification.Target);
        StatementTargets.Add($"Update Table: {tokenText}");
    }
    public override void ExplicitVisit(InsertStatement node)
    {
        var tokenText = getTokenText(node.InsertSpecification.Target);
        StatementTargets.Add($"Insert Table: {tokenText}");
    }
    public string getTokenText(TSqlFragment frag)
    {
        var sb = new StringBuilder();
        for(int i = frag.FirstTokenIndex; i <= frag.LastTokenIndex; ++i)
        {
            sb.Append(frag.ScriptTokenStream[i].Text);
        }
        return sb.ToString();

    }
}

Output:

Update Table: dbo.Models
Insert Table: DB.dbo.emplyees
Execute SP: dbo.UP_LOG
