Syntax error in trigger
Hi All,
I have written below trigger and applied on the table but it is giving
syntax error when it gets invoked. Could you please help me what is wrong? I
have given complete details here:
*my trigger function:*
**
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION techdb_logtable_trigger()
RETURNS trigger AS
$BODY$
my $id = $_TD->{new}{'id'};
my $query = "
INSERT INTO log_table(id)
* SELECT $1
EXCEPT SELECT id --> throwing error for here: syntax error at or near
"EXCEPT"*
FROM loggingtable
WHERE id = $1;";
if (exists($_SHARED{$query})) {
$plan = $_SHARED{$query};
} else {
$plan = spi_prepare($query, 'INTEGER');
$_SHARED{$query} = $plan;
}
spi_exec_prepared($plan, '$id');
$BODY$
LANGUAGE 'plperl' VOLATILE SECURITY DEFINER
*Tables and trigger definitions:*
CREATE TABLE techdb_table( id integer NOT NULL, info varchar NOT NULL );
CREATE TABLE log_table( id integer NOT NULL, txid integer NOT NULL DEFAULT
txid_current(), txtime timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT transaction_timestamp());
CREATE TRIGGER techdb_trigger
BEFORE INSERT ON techdb_table
FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE techdb_logtable_trigger();
*Error message:*
Executing "insert into techdb_table values(1, 'test');" command gives below
error.
ERROR: error from Perl function "techdb_logtable_trigger": syntax error at
or near "EXCEPT" at line 15.
********** Error **********

Select from which table? I think, there is the table-name missing,
right?

Thanks Anreas but I think that's not a issue. The issue is something to do
with "$1". I don't know how to get rid of it.
techdb=# INSERT INTO log_table(id) SELECT 5 EXCEPT SELECT id FROM log_table
WHERE id = 5;
INSERT 0 1
techdb=# select * from log_table;
id | txid | txtime
----+--------+----------------------------
5 | 196552 | 2010-04-22 09:30:10.509326
(1 row)
techdb=#
Could anyone please help me out here.
Thanks,

I got it resolved. I just need to put below statement into single quote
instead of double quote. :)
my $query ='INSERT INTO log_table(id) SELECT $1 EXCEPT SELECT id FROM
log_table WHERE id = $1;';
Thanks,
