Dynamic query execution using array

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

 



Inside a function, I can execute dynamic query like this

      dept_id = 1;
      salary = 50000;
      RETURN QUERY EXECUTE 'SELECT * FROM employee WHERE dept_id = $1 and salary >= $2' using dept_id, salary;

When the query condition is dynamically generated and number of parameters is also dynamic, 

DECLARE
      tmpArray   text[];
      query text;
BEGIN
      -- inputParameter will have the whole parameter list separated by comma.
      tmpArray = string_to_array(inputParam, ',');

      -- Let's assume the query condition is dynamically constructed from somewhere else.
      query = 'select * FROM employee WHERE ' || dynamicQueryFunction(...);
      RETURN QUERY EXECUTE query using tmpArray;
END

I know above one will fail to execute. 
Of course, if I construct dynamic query using one of (quote_nullable, quote_literal, format), I can execute it.

Is there any other way to achieve dynamic query execution using array value?

Thanks in advance,
