One way I was thinking of was creating an updatable view, which is
initialized to NULL. As SELECT queries take place, I can update the
view to include the new rows.
Why you just create your track function and a view to call it?
BEGIN;
CREATE TABLE foo (id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY, data TEXT);
CREATE TABLE foo_track(tracktime TIMESTAMP DEFAULT now(), foo_row foo);
INSERT INTO foo (data) SELECT 'Some Data'||id FROM generate_series(1,10) AS id;
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION foo_track_func(foo) RETURNS integer AS
$$
INSERT INTO foo_track(foo_row) VALUES ($1) RETURNING (foo_row).id
$$
LANGUAGE sql;
CREATE VIEW v_foo AS SELECT foo.*, foo_track_func(foo.*) FROM foo;
SELECT * FROM v_foo;
SELECT * FROM foo_track;
COMMIT;
