No - I am definitely using an AFTER trigger. Following is a simplified
version of what I am trying to do.
/* messages - log messages */
CREATE TABLE messages
(id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
time TIMESTAMP DEFAULT
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
severity_level INTEGER NOT NULL,
severity TEXT NOT NULL, /*
ENUM('Info','Warning','Critical') */
facility CHAR(10) NOT NULL,
msg TEXT NOT NULL);
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION message_alert() RETURNS TRIGGER AS
$message_alert$
BEGIN
PERFORM send_mesg('notify_channel', 'DB:Log:' || NEW.id
|| ':');
RETURN NULL;
END;
$message_alert$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
CREATE TRIGGER message_alert AFTER INSERT ON messages
FOR EACH ROW
EXECUTE PROCEDURE message_alert();
I have a Python program which is waiting on the message being sent via
send_mesg(). The message is received correctly but if I do an immediate
"SELECT msg FROM messages WHERE id=<the message id that came via the
send_msg() call>;" then it returns a NULL set. If I put a small sleep
between receiving the message and doing the select then I get the data.
What I want to do is to guarantee that the row is available for
selection prior to sending the message.
