function Find-DbaStoredProcedure {
    <#
        .SYNOPSIS
            Returns all stored procedures that contain a specific case-insensitive string or regex pattern.
 
        .DESCRIPTION
            This function can either run against specific databases or all databases searching all user or user and system stored procedures.
 
        .PARAMETER SqlInstance
            SQL Server name or SMO object representing the SQL Server to connect to. This can be a collection and receive pipeline input
 
        .PARAMETER SqlCredential
            Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Windows and SQL Authentication supported. Accepts credential objects (Get-Credential)
 
        .PARAMETER Database
            The database(s) to process - this list is auto-populated from the server. If unspecified, all databases will be processed.
 
        .PARAMETER ExcludeDatabase
            The database(s) to exclude - this list is auto-populated from the server
 
        .PARAMETER Pattern
            String pattern that you want to search for in the stored procedure textbody
 
        .PARAMETER IncludeSystemObjects
            By default, system stored procedures are ignored but you can include them within the search using this parameter.
 
            Warning - this will likely make it super slow if you run it on all databases.
 
        .PARAMETER IncludeSystemDatabases
            By default system databases are ignored but you can include them within the search using this parameter
 
        .PARAMETER EnableException
            By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
            This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
            Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.

            Find-DbaStoredProcedure -SqlInstance DEV01 -Pattern whatever
 
            Searches all user databases stored procedures for "whatever" in the textbody
 
        .EXAMPLE
            Find-DbaStoredProcedure -SqlInstance sql2016 -Pattern '\w+@\w+\.\w+'
 
            Searches all databases for all stored procedures that contain a valid email pattern in the textbody
 
        .EXAMPLE
            Find-DbaStoredProcedure -SqlInstance DEV01 -Database MyDB -Pattern 'some string' -Verbose
 
            Searches in "mydb" database stored procedures for "some string" in the textbody
 
        .EXAMPLE
            Find-DbaStoredProcedure -SqlInstance sql2016 -Database MyDB -Pattern RUNTIME -IncludeSystemObjects
 
            Searches in "mydb" database stored procedures for "runtime" in the textbody
