Hello all,

I'm trying to do a crosstab from data that row names are times.

These times are timestamps and  i  want to  use they truncating to minutes
 this works for me:

select distinct date_trunc('minute',"timestamp") as "timestamp" from
historico order by "timestamp";

Getting times "normalized" without seconds.

If i do a crosstab using that date_trunc function i get errors. If i do:

select *
from crosstab
(
'select date_trunc('minute',"timestamp") as "timestamp",remota,valor from
historico order by 1,2'
)
as
(anet timestamp without time zone,
re1 numeric,
re2 numeric,
re3 numeric
)
;
Looks like an escaping issue. Try replacing your outer ' with $outer$
or something like that:


It _is_ an escaping issue. The part inside the crosstab consists of 3 literals, namely:
'select date_trunc('
minute
',"timestamp") as "timestamp",remota,valor from historico order by 1,2'

You need to escape the quotes around 'minute', either by typing ''minute'' or by using a different quote method for the outer literal as Scott suggested. Your last option is the non-standard \' escaping.

Thank you very much. This worked for me.

Best,
