Обсуждение: Trigger (Transaction related)
Hi,
I've written a trigger after insert on a table (parser) and the trigger calls a function that dynamically loads a shared object written in C.
This shared object intends to use the newly inserted row in the table on which trigger is written and insert values in another table, something like this,
sprintf(buffer, "INSERT INTO headers (id, header_content) VALUES ( %d, SELECT contents FROM parser WHERE id = %d ), id, id);
SPI_exec(buffer,0).
Above line of code is not able to read the values of newly inserted code i.e
SELECT contents FROM parser WHERE id = %d
and throws an error.
Is it because its still the same transaction going on and the insert fired on parser talbe won't be reflected in the select query in the shared object which is a part of the same transaction???
Regards,
~Harpreet

The new values are in the "NEW" pseudo-tuple. See the trigger documentation on how to access it. In the pl/sql and pl/pgsql languages you just say "NEW.<fieldname>". Not sure about C though. > Is it because its still the same transaction going on and the insert fired > on parser talbe won't be reflected in the select query in the shared object > which is a part of the same transaction??? I don't think its visible in the table yet for a BEFORE INSERT trigger. AFTER INSERT maybe, but in either case, the NEW tuple has the actual values.

If that is the case then why does it throw error in one on the insert queries in the shared object written in SPI without inserting the row on the table on which record is inserted.
Follwing query in the shared object throws an error.
INSERT INTO headers (id, header_content) VALUES (1, SELECT raw_email FROM parser WHERE id = 1)
Error is
ERROR: syntax error at or near "SELECT" at character 53
Regardless the error in the shared object, why doesn't it insert the row in the table on which AFTER INSERT trigger is written?
Thanks,

The new values are in the "NEW" pseudo-tuple. See the trigger
documentation on how to access it. In the pl/sql and pl/pgsql languages
you just say "NEW.<fieldname>". Not sure about C though.

AFTER INSERT maybe, but in either case, the NEW tuple has the actual
values.

Thats OK, but my question is why did the original insert not take place.
Syntax error was in the select query that is fired as a result of the trigger

Because there's a syntax error.
test=# INSERT INTO headers (id, header_content) VALUES (1, SELECT raw_email FROM parser WHERE id = 1);
ERROR: syntax error at or near "SELECT" at character 53
LINE 1: ...SERT INTO headers (id, header_content) VALUES (1, SELECT raw...
^
test=# INSERT INTO headers (id, header_content) VALUES (1, (SELECT raw_email FROM parser WHERE id = 1));
ERROR: relation "headers" does not exist
test=#

Perhaps you should verify the syntax of your queries in a less

If the trigger fails, so does the whole transaction. It would be kinda silly if a transaction was allowed to succeed even though not all the triggers were run.

Exactly Tom,
I was missing a few paranthesis like a nut.
Thanks for pointing out.

You're short some parentheses --- try executing a comparable query
