SPI_execute
Name
SPI_execute -- execute a commandSynopsis
int SPI_execute(const char * command, bool read_only, long count)
Description
SPI_execute executes the specified SQL command
for count rows. If read_only
is true, the command must be read-only, and execution overhead
is somewhat reduced.
This function can only be called from a connected procedure.
If count is zero then the command is executed for all rows that it applies to. If count is greater than 0, then the number of rows for which the command will be executed is restricted (much like a LIMIT clause). For example:
SPI_execute("INSERT INTO foo SELECT * FROM bar", false, 5);
will allow at most 5 rows to be inserted into the table.
You can pass multiple commands in one string, but later commands cannot
depend on the creation of objects earlier in the string, because the
whole string will be parsed and planned before execution begins.
SPI_execute returns the
result for the command executed last. The count
limit applies to each command separately, but it is not applied to
hidden commands generated by rules.
When read_only is false,
SPI_execute increments the command
counter and computes a new snapshot before executing each
command in the string. The snapshot does not actually change if the
current transaction isolation level is SERIALIZABLE, but in
READ COMMITTED mode the snapshot update allows each command to
see the results of newly committed transactions from other sessions.
This is essential for consistent behavior when the commands are modifying
the database.
When read_only is true,
SPI_execute does not update either the snapshot
or the command counter, and it allows only plain SELECT
commands to appear in the command string. The commands are executed
using the snapshot previously established for the surrounding query.
This execution mode is somewhat faster than the read/write mode due
to eliminating per-command overhead. It also allows genuinely
stable functions to be built: since successive executions
will all use the same snapshot, there will be no change in the results.
It is generally unwise to mix read-only and read-write commands within a single function using SPI; that could result in very confusing behavior, since the read-only queries would not see the results of any database updates done by the read-write queries.
The actual number of rows for which the (last) command was executed is returned in the global variable SPI_processed. If the return value of the function is SPI_OK_SELECT, SPI_OK_INSERT_RETURNING, SPI_OK_DELETE_RETURNING, or SPI_OK_UPDATE_RETURNING, then you can use the global pointer SPITupleTable *SPI_tuptable to access the result rows. Some utility commands (such as EXPLAIN) also return row sets, and SPI_tuptable will contain the result in these cases too.
The structure SPITupleTable is defined thus:
typedef struct
{
MemoryContext tuptabcxt; /* memory context of result table */
uint32 alloced; /* number of alloced vals */
uint32 free; /* number of free vals */
TupleDesc tupdesc; /* row descriptor */
HeapTuple *vals; /* rows */
} SPITupleTable;
vals is an array of pointers to rows. (The number of valid entries is given by SPI_processed.) tupdesc is a row descriptor which you can pass to SPI functions dealing with rows. tuptabcxt, alloced, and free are internal fields not intended for use by SPI callers.
SPI_finish frees all
SPITupleTables allocated during the current
procedure. You can free a particular result table earlier, if you
are done with it, by calling SPI_freetuptable.
Arguments
- const char * command
string containing command to execute
- bool read_only
true for read-only execution
- long count
maximum number of rows to process or return
Return Value
If the execution of the command was successful then one of the following (nonnegative) values will be returned:
- SPI_OK_SELECT
if a SELECT (but not SELECT INTO) was executed
- SPI_OK_SELINTO
if a SELECT INTO was executed
- SPI_OK_INSERT
if an INSERT was executed
- SPI_OK_DELETE
if a DELETE was executed
- SPI_OK_UPDATE
if an UPDATE was executed
- SPI_OK_INSERT_RETURNING
if an INSERT RETURNING was executed
- SPI_OK_DELETE_RETURNING
if a DELETE RETURNING was executed
- SPI_OK_UPDATE_RETURNING
if an UPDATE RETURNING was executed
- SPI_OK_UTILITY
if a utility command (e.g., CREATE TABLE) was executed
- SPI_OK_REWRITTEN
if the command was rewritten into another kind of command (e.g., UPDATE became an INSERT) by a rule.
On error, one of the following negative values is returned:
- SPI_ERROR_ARGUMENT
if command is NULL or count is less than 0
- SPI_ERROR_COPY
if COPY TO stdout or COPY FROM stdin was attempted
- SPI_ERROR_TRANSACTION
if a transaction manipulation command was attempted (BEGIN, COMMIT, ROLLBACK, SAVEPOINT, PREPARE TRANSACTION, COMMIT PREPARED, ROLLBACK PREPARED, or any variant thereof)
- SPI_ERROR_OPUNKNOWN
if the command type is unknown (shouldn't happen)
- SPI_ERROR_UNCONNECTED
if called from an unconnected procedure
Notes
The functions SPI_execute,
SPI_exec,
SPI_execute_plan, and
SPI_execp change both
SPI_processed and
SPI_tuptable (just the pointer, not the contents
of the structure). Save these two global variables into local
procedure variables if you need to access the result table of
SPI_execute or a related function
across later calls.
