Hi all.

 

I have this simple schema:

 

create table fisk(
    name varchar primary key,
    autofisk varchar
);

 

I want to update the column "autofisk" on commit based the value of "name", so I created this trigger:

 

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION fisk_tf() returns TRIGGER AS $$
BEGIN
    raise notice 'name %', NEW.name;
    NEW.autofisk = NEW.name || CURRENT_TIMESTAMP::text;
    RETURN NEW;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

 

CREATE CONSTRAINT TRIGGER fisk_t AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE ON fisk DEFERRABLE INITIALLY DEFERRED

 

It should be BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE trigger
