Quick Reference

Function Template

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION func_name(p_param TYPE)
RETURNS return_type
LANGUAGE plpgsql STABLE SECURITY DEFINER
SET search_path = app, public
AS $$ DECLARE v_result TYPE; BEGIN
    -- Logic
    RETURN v_result;
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
    RAISE WARNING '%', SQLERRM;
    RETURN NULL;
END; $$;

Trigger Template

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION trigger_func() RETURNS TRIGGER AS $$
BEGIN
    IF TG_OP = 'UPDATE' THEN NEW.updated_at := NOW(); END IF;
    RETURN NEW;
END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

CREATE TRIGGER trg_name BEFORE UPDATE ON t FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE FUNCTION trigger_func();

Volatility
