Обсуждение: Are Triggers Synchronous

Hi All,

I am not sure if this is the right list for this question, so if its
not, I would appreciate a pointer in the right direction.

Anyways, I would like to know if triggers are synchronous in Postgresql.
I have a PHP application and when executing a query, I would like the
queries to wait until the triggers have completed execution before
returning to the application.

Is this possible?

Thanks and best wishes,

Shri

Of course the trigger are synchronous but you can define it on these
events:

1) INSERT
2) UPDATE
3) DELETE

what you can do with an insert is a RULE instead.
