# Sequel::Postgres::DatabaseMethods

Methods shared by Database instances that connect to PostgreSQL.

### Constants

PREPARED_ARG_PLACEHOLDER
RE_CURRVAL_ERROR
SYSTEM_TABLE_REGEXP

### Public Instance Methods

create_function(name, definition, opts={}) click to toggle source

Creates the function in the database. Arguments:

- name : name of the function to create

- definition : string definition of the function, or object file for a dynamically loaded C function.

- opts : options hash:

  - :args : function arguments, can be either a symbol or string specifying a type or an array of 1-3 elements:

    - element 1 : argument data type

    - element 2 : argument name

    - element 3 : argument mode (e.g. in, out, inout)

  - :behavior : Should be IMMUTABLE, STABLE, or VOLATILE. PostgreSQL assumes VOLATILE by default.

  - :cost : The estimated cost of the function, used by the query planner.

  - :language : The language the function uses. SQL is the default.

  - :link_symbol : For a dynamically loaded see function, the function’s link symbol if different from the definition argument.

  - :returns : The data type returned by the function. If you are using OUT or INOUT argument modes, this is ignored. Otherwise, if this is not specified, void is used by default to specify the function is not supposed to return a value.

  - :rows : The estimated number of rows the function will return. Only use if the function returns SETOF something.

  - :security_definer : Makes the privileges of the function the same as the privileges of the user who defined the function instead of the privileges of the user who runs the function. There are security implications when doing this, see the PostgreSQL documentation.

  - :set : Configuration variables to set while the function is being run, can be a hash or an array of two pairs. search_path is often used here if :security_definer is used.

  - :strict : Makes the function return NULL when any argument is NULL.

    # File lib/sequel/adapters/shared/postgres.rb, line 184
    def create_function(name, definition, opts={})
      self << create_function_sql(name, definition, opts)
    end

create_language(name, opts={}) click to toggle source

Create the procedural language in the database. Arguments:

- name : Name of the procedural language (e.g. plpgsql)

- opts : options hash:

  - :handler : The name of a previously registered function used as a call handler for this language.

  - :trusted : Marks the language being created as trusted, allowing unprivileged users to create functions using this language.

  - :validator : The name of previously registered function used as a validator of functions defined in this language.

    # File lib/sequel/adapters/shared/postgres.rb, line 194
    def create_language(name, opts={})
      self << create_language_sql(name, opts)
    end

create_trigger(table, name, function, opts={}) click to toggle source

Create a trigger in the database. Arguments:

- table : the table on which this trigger operates

- name : the name of this trigger

- function : the function to call for this trigger, which should return type trigger.

- opts : options hash:

  - :after : Calls the trigger after execution instead of before.

  - :args : An argument or array of arguments to pass to the function.

  - :each_row : Calls the trigger for each row instead of for each statement.

  - :events : Can be :insert, :update, :delete, or an array of any of those. Calls the trigger whenever that type of statement is used. By default, the trigger is called for insert, update, or delete.

    # File lib/sequel/adapters/shared/postgres.rb, line 208
    def create_trigger(table, name, function, opts={})
      self << create_trigger_sql(table, name, function, opts)

- opts : options hash:

  - :args : The arguments for the function. See create_function_sql.

  - :cascade : Drop other objects depending on this function.

  - :if_exists : Don’t raise an error if the function doesn’t exist.

    # File lib/sequel/adapters/shared/postgres.rb, line 223
    def drop_function(name, opts={})
      self << drop_function_sql(name, opts)
