Può essere fatto funzionare, il trigger che esegue lo spostamento deve solo essere definito per ogni partizione, non per l'intera tabella. Quindi inizia come hai fatto per le definizioni delle tabelle e il trigger INSERT
CREATE TABLE records (
record varchar(64) NOT NULL,
active boolean default TRUE
);
CREATE TABLE active_records (CHECK (active)) INHERITS (records);
CREATE TABLE inactive_records (CHECK (NOT active)) INHERITS (records);
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION record_insert()
RETURNS TRIGGER AS $$
BEGIN
IF (TRUE = NEW.active) THEN
INSERT INTO active_records VALUES (NEW.*);
ELSE
INSERT INTO inactive_records VALUES (NEW.*);
END IF;
RETURN NULL;
END;
$$
LANGUAGE plpgsql;
CREATE TRIGGER record_insert_trigger
BEFORE INSERT ON records
FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE record_insert();
... disponiamo di alcuni dati di prova ...
INSERT INTO records VALUES ('FirstLittlePiggy', TRUE);
INSERT INTO records VALUES ('SecondLittlePiggy', FALSE);
INSERT INTO records VALUES ('ThirdLittlePiggy', TRUE);
INSERT INTO records VALUES ('FourthLittlePiggy', FALSE);
INSERT INTO records VALUES ('FifthLittlePiggy', TRUE);
Ora i trigger sulle partizioni. Il controllo if NEW.active =OLD.active è implicito nel controllo del valore di active poiché sappiamo in primo luogo cosa può essere nella tabella.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION active_partition_constraint()
RETURNS TRIGGER AS $$
BEGIN
IF NOT (NEW.active) THEN
INSERT INTO inactive_records VALUES (NEW.*);
DELETE FROM active_records WHERE record = NEW.record;
RETURN NULL;
ELSE
RETURN NEW;
END IF;
END;
$$
LANGUAGE plpgsql;
CREATE TRIGGER active_constraint_trigger
BEFORE UPDATE ON active_records
FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE active_partition_constraint();
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION inactive_partition_constraint()
RETURNS TRIGGER AS $$
BEGIN
IF (NEW.active) THEN
INSERT INTO active_records VALUES (NEW.*);
DELETE FROM inactive_records WHERE record = NEW.record;
RETURN NULL;
ELSE
RETURN NEW;
END IF;
END;
$$
LANGUAGE plpgsql;
CREATE TRIGGER inactive_constraint_trigger
BEFORE UPDATE ON inactive_records
FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE inactive_partition_constraint();
... e testa i risultati ...
