You can write a trigger-function. There you can do a insert/update for
everey new records in the data_transfer - table.
A simple example:
I hava 2 tables:
,----
| test_db=# \d namen;
| Tabelle »public.namen«
| Spalte | Typ | Attribute
| ----------+-------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
| id | integer | not null default nextval('public.namen_id_seq'::text)
| vorname | character varying |
| nachname | character varying |
| Trigger:
| trig1 BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE ON namen FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE trigg1()
|
| test_db=# \d namen2;
| Tabelle »public.namen2«
| Spalte | Typ | Attribute
| ----------+-------------------+-----------
| id | integer |
| vorname | character varying |
| nachname | character varying |
|
`----
And this trigger-function:
,----
| create or replace function trigg1() returns trigger as'
| begin
| insert into namen2 values (NEW.id, NEW.vorname, NEW.nachname);
| return NEW;
| end;
| ' language plpgsql;
`----
There isn't a check for update, but this is also possible.
,----
| test_db=# select * from namen;
| id | vorname | nachname
| ----+---------+----------
| (0 Zeilen)
|
| test_db=# select * from namen2;
| id | vorname | nachname
| ----+---------+----------
| (0 Zeilen)
`----
And i have a file:
,----
| kretschmer@kaufbach:~$ cat input.txt
| copy "namen" from stdin;
| 10 Magdalena Kretschmer
| 11 Katharina Kretschmer
| kretschmer@kaufbach:~$
`----
,----
| test_db=# \i input.txt
| test_db=# select * from namen;
| id | vorname | nachname
| ----+-----------+------------
| 10 | Magdalena | Kretschmer
| 11 | Katharina | Kretschmer
| (2 Zeilen)
|
| test_db=# select * from namen2;
| id | vorname | nachname
| ----+-----------+------------
| 10 | Magdalena | Kretschmer
| 11 | Katharina | Kretschmer
| (2 Zeilen)
`----
sorry about my bad english.
