You could do something like:
WITH s AS (
SELECT pid FROM test WHERE area = 'test5'
), i AS (
INSERT INTO test (area)
SELECT 'test5'
WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM s)
RETURNING pid
)
UPDATE area
SET last_update = CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
WHERE pid = (SELECT pid FROM s UNION SELECT pid FROM i)
RETURNING pid;
but be warned, it's could all fall over as soon as you have concurrent
sessions running this at the same time. You could protect against
that by doing some advisory locking (
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/explicit-locking.html#ADVISORY-LOCKS
), or taking an access exclusive lock on "test".
