9.1 went EOL almost two years ago. The oldest supported version is 9.3,
though it will go EOL this September:

Are you forced to work with 9.1 or can you use something from here:
https://www.postgresql.org/download/macosx/
to get a newer version? FYI that will be a major upgrade so will require
a dump/restore or use of pg_upgrade.

It can use functions written in PL languages. See below:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/sql-createeventtrigger.html
for an example written in plpgsql.
