Обсуждение: Making query without trigger

I have trigger on updating the table. Sometimes i need to make queries
without calling that trigger. How can I solve this?

You need your function to decide whether the "don't do anything"
conditions apply, and then not do anything.  The trigger still fires,
but it doesn't do anything.

You could try disabling the trigger (ALTER TABLE ...), doing you updates
and reenabling the trigger (ALTER TABLE) -- all within transaction.  If
you do it this way, your change in triggers won't be visible to any other
transaction.

 Yep, decided the best way to ignore trigger is checking function in
trigger body. In my "Updating" case i used checking (old.fieldname <>
new.fieldname).
