Calling function (table_name, schema_name) within event trigger

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

 




What is the correct syntax for calling a function from within an event trigger, passing in the table name and schema name as parameters to the function?

The goal is to capture DDL changes to tables for the purpose of turning on (or off) auditing for production tables. The history_master table controls which tables are to be audited. I already have a procedure that creates the trigger for an new (or altered) table that tracks DML changes in a history table. While I would be conscientious about including DML triggers in my tables definitions, I cannot count on others to do so.

After I get this to work, I want to capture altered DDL as well so that I can alter the corresponding history table with the correct column definitions.

The following code does not work, but I think you can get the idea of what I'm trying to accomplish. I would welcome any alternate suggestions that you may have. I'm using version 9.4.4. on FreeBSD 8.4.

Thanks for your help!

Code:
-----

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION insert_history_master()
	RETURNS event_trigger
	LANGUAGE plpgsql
AS $$
BEGIN
	select store.add_history_master (tg_table_name, tg_schema_name)
	;
END;
$$;

CREATE EVENT TRIGGER insert_history_master ON ddl_command_start
   EXECUTE PROCEDURE insert_history_master();
