Problem with function-arguments

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello everyone!

First of all: I'm using Postgres 8.2.4 on a WinXP machine.

I'm trying to create a function that creates a new user-role to allow non-super-users to create users.

The function should look something like that (well, obviously it should not...but it's to give you an idea, what I'm talking about):

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION sys.create_user(text, text)
  RETURNS void AS
$BODY$
	CREATE ROLE "$1" LOGIN PASSWORD '$2' INHERIT NOCREATEDB CREATEROLE;
$BODY$
  LANGUAGE 'sql' VOLATILE SECURITY DEFINER;

The statement "SELECT sys.create_user('myusername', 'mypassword'); " creates a user named $1 with password $2.......well....that's not whwat I want the function to do.....

Nearly any combination of double-quotes, single-quotes leads to a syntax-error when trying to create the function...

At the moment I'm running out of ideas...can anyone help?

Greetings and TIA,
Hans Peter Ertz
