Thread: Constraint trigger doc patch

Constraint trigger doc patch

From
Michael Glaesemann
Date:
(Fifth attempt: diff inline)
(And a fourth attempt, from another account...)
(Third time's the charm?)
(Resent as I sent this yesterday but haven't seen it on the list yet
or in the online archives. Apologies if it ends up double-posting.)

Please find attached a doc patch for CREATE CONSTRAINT TRIGGER. The
documentation here has always been sparse, as the command isn't
intended for general use. However, in its current form its a bit
*too* sparse. For example, it mentions constraint attributes but
doesn't say what those might be or where to look for information for
details. The patch lists attribute options and provides references to
where those options are described.

When looking in gram.y while trying to figure out what exactly was
meant by "actual constraint specification", I discovered
OptConstrFromTable. I assume this means Optional Constraint From
Table and it looks like it's used to specify the referenced table a
foreign key constraint. I couldn't figure out how to meaningfully use
it and have left the description purposefully vague.

I don't have a working DocBook tool chain on my system, so I haven't
been able to check if it builds properly. I tried to be conscientious
about my formatting, but some SGML bugs may have crept in.

Thanks!

Great! I was just going to try to use constraint triggers (because I
needed deferrable constraints). So I personally appreciate this
documentation update very much.

Just some notes:

It's spelled DEFERRABLE. You got it right in NOT DEFERRABLE but wrong in
[ DEFERABBLE ].

It think you should drop the "is" from the last sentence here.
Additionally, I would prefer "Use this assigned name when dropping the
trigger." here, because this one confused me to try to "ALTER TABLE DROP
CONSTRAINT" instead of "DROP TRIGGER".

Thanks again.

"event [ OR ... ]" notation.

Best Regards,
