Cómo almacenar la información de excepción/fallo de MySQL Trigger en una tabla o en variables

Encontré un truco a través de DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER y GET DIAGNOSTICS CONDITION , así que pensé, debo compartirlo aquí.

Aquí está mi secuencia de comandos final completa que mantiene la copia de seguridad (sincronización) para ambas bases de datos users table lo que significa es que cualquier actualización en test_db1 (que podemos llamarlo como una base de datos de producción) ocurrirá en test_db2 (que podemos llamarlo como stagingDB):

/*
Create two databases:
    1. `test_db1`
    2. `test_db2`
and execute below create *Table script* on both databases.
after that execute *Triggers Script* on `test_db1` only..
*/

/*
    TABLE STRUCTURE FOR `users`
*/

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `users`;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `users` (
  `id` int(11) AUTO_INCREMENT NOT NULL,
  `name` varchar(30) NOT NULL,
  `age` int(11) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=1 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

/*
    TABLE STRUCTURE FOR `errors`
*/

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `errors`;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `errors` (
  `id` int(11) AUTO_INCREMENT NOT NULL,
  `code` varchar(30) NOT NULL,
  `message` TEXT NOT NULL,
  `query_type` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
  `record_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `on_db` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
  `on_table` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
  `emailed` TINYINT DEFAULT 0,
  `created_at` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=1 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
