Insert Rule

От

I’m trying to prevent any further input of a particular field value via an insert rule with the following rule.

 

CREATE OR REPLACE RULE rule_foovalue AS

    ON INSERT TO foo

   WHERE new.foovalue = 1 DO  SELECT fooexception.fooexception

   FROM fooexception() fooexception(fooexception);

 

Basically the stored procedure that it calls raises an exception. The behavior I wanted\excepted was to call the stored procedure when foovalue = 1 and to execute a regular insert when foovalue <> 1. What its doing is calling the stored procedure when foovalue = 1, that part works just fine. However, when I try to insert a record into foo with any other value besides 1 it actually inserts the record but doesn’t return the # of rows affected. Is there something else I need to add to the rule so that it returns the number of rows affected like normal?

 

Thanks,
Curtis

Rules are like macros. What's happening is that each insert query on
that table is being rewritten into two queries, one the original query,
the other your query with the condition. It's the result of the second
query that you're seeing.

It sounds like you really want a trigger, or perhaps just a CHECK
constraint.

Have a nice day,

Works for me:

regression=# create table foo (foovalue int);
CREATE TABLE
regression=# CREATE OR REPLACE RULE rule_foovalue AS ON INSERT TO foo
regression-#  WHERE new.foovalue = 1 DO
regression-# select random();
CREATE RULE
regression=# insert into foo values(1);
      random
-------------------
 0.584614597726613
(1 row)

INSERT 0 1
regression=# insert into foo values(2);
 random
--------
(0 rows)

INSERT 0 1
regression=#

Perhaps your client-side software is being distracted by the SELECT
result and not noticing the following INSERT result?

You might be better off casting this as a NOTHING rule to avoid that:

regression=# create function check_for_one(int) returns bool as $$
regression$# begin
regression$#   raise notice 'check %', $1;
regression$#   return false;
regression$# end$$ language plpgsql;
CREATE FUNCTION
regression=# CREATE OR REPLACE RULE rule_foovalue AS ON INSERT TO foo
WHERE check_for_one(foovalue) DO INSTEAD NOTHING;
CREATE RULE
regression=# insert into foo values(1);
NOTICE:  check 1
INSERT 0 1
regression=# insert into foo values(2);
NOTICE:  check 2
INSERT 0 1
regression=#

I made my test function just throw a NOTICE so I could verify it got
called, but you could easily make it throw an error instead.
