Hi, I want to save history for a few tables using triggers on update and creation. What's the best approach to do this in a webapp environment where I want to save which webapp user that is doing the change, not the postgresql user?
Well, you haven't told us much about your webapp. Are you using connection pooling? If so, then you'll need to provide the webapp userid as an additional parameter to your database updates. If you are not using connection pooling, such that your webapp userids are connecting as themselves, then the problem becomes much easier; you've got the correct userid to log by just looking at the connection details.
