Hi all !
Every so often, when working with functions, errors get
reported with context information similar to this:
Context: PL/pgSQL function "test_function" line 5 at SQL statement
Often, the function source is kept under version control (or
in a file annotated, commented, etc in certain ways) such
that the file line number does not correspond to the function
source line number.
In such cases, a typical approach would be to go and do
\df+ test_function
which nicely produces function metadata and source as
contained in the database. For non-trivial functions it is,
however, slightly cumbersome to count the line numbers
onscreen (let alone line break settings).
Hence I wonder whether an approach along these lines:
select
row_number() over ()
|| src_line
from (
select
unnest(string_to_array(prosrc, E'\n')) as src_line
from
pg_proc
where
proname = 'FUNC_NAME'
) as func_src;
would be a worthwhile change to the query "\df+" uses ?
do you know \sf+ fce command?
Regards
Pavel
(Resorting to "\ef" won't align temp file lines with function
source line numbers either, because pgsql boilerplate is
needed for function definition etc.)
Thanks for considering,
Karsten
