Call plpgsql Function from a PL/Python Function in PostgreSQL












4















Is is possible to call a plpgsql function (or any PostgreSQL function) from a PL/Python function?



So, something like this:



CREATE FUNCTION somefunc() RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE
...
BEGIN
...
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;


And then use it here



CREATE FUNCTION pythonFunc() RETURNS void AS $$
...
someFunc() #postgreSQL function
...
$$ LANGUAGE plpythonu;

          • How would you pass arguments on from the plpython_function to the plpgsql_function? The short answer to this would be, "import plpy and use plpy.quote_literal". My reply to that would be, "that's all very well, but 8.2 (actually, Greenplum) does not have plpy.quote_literal, it is actually quote_literal that I want to call!" Bootstrap problem.
