Обсуждение: [GENERAL] Event Trigger question
Hi All;
we are creating an event trigger on ddl_command_end and I want the function to know the TABLE and COMMAND run, for example if the ddl command was an "ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN X" then I want to pull the table and the actual alter command. We're running version 9.4 so the pg_event_trigger_ddl_commands function is not available.
I see in the 9.4 docs that the variable tg_tag is used, and I see some references to tg_event
I assume we can pass ALTER TABLE as the filter value like so:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION trap_alter_statements() RETURNS event_triggerLANGUAGE plpgsql AS $$ BEGIN RAISE EXCEPTION 'command %', tg_tag; END; $$; CREATE EVENT TRIGGER abort_ddl ON ddl_command_start WHEN TAG IN 'ALTER TABLE' EXECUTE PROCEDURE trap_alter_statements(); Questions: 1) is the above "WHEN TAG IN 'ALTER TABLE'" correct? 2) where can I find a complete list of the tg_ variables? I see this list: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/plpgsql-trigger.html which includes TG_NAME. OLD, NEW, etc but tg_tag and tg_event are not in the list. Are there other variables I can reference? 3) which specific variable will show me (a) the full command run and (b) the table name? Thanks in advance

They are listed at the bottom of the page you linked to.
