Hi, can any of the programming languages (perl, tcl) be used to exec a process on the server and open files?
You are looking for untrusted. For Python that is the only way it comes, hence plpythonu(ntrusted) For Perl see here: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/interactive/plperl-trusted.html That is all I know about.
The scenario I have in mind would - copy some fields of a table to an external text file - have a script generate binary data from the text file
So what exactly does the above step entail? Just wondering if it could be done without leaving the database?
- load that data into a large object The client would just select rebuild() Best regards Wolfgang Hamann -- gpg key: 92FCFB25
