Aloha! I am trying to retrieve the number of rows copied by a COPY command inside a plpgsql function. The docs tell me, that the "command tag" holds this information. But how to access the command tag from within a plpgsql function? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/interactive/sql-copy.html I am COPYing the huge result of a complex SQL query to a file and would like to output the number of rows. I could write to a temp table and use GET DIAGNOSTICS integer_var = ROW_COUNT; and COPY from there. But that takes twice as long. GET DIAGNOSTICS does not currently work for COPY .. Am I missing something?
