Mimicking cascading foreign key referencing system table
The Next CEO of Stack OverflowInherit audit columns and triggersIs it possible to run a trigger on Table Creation in MySQLBetter way to create an Events table?Trigger to create symmetrical rowsPostgreSQL Partitioned table update triggerWithin a trigger is there a way to tell if an update or insert came from a trigger or not?Automatically add core fields to a table when createdCreate foreign key constraint on indirect dataHow to create `instead of` trigger on a table in postgres?How to create relationship metadata between tables without a foreign key check?
I'd like to create a table to store some additional metadata about tables, but I'm running into a number of roadblocks since foreign keys and triggers cannot be used with system tables.
On INSERT
it seems easy enough to create a trigger on the metadata table that checks for a matching row in pg_class
, but I'm struggling to come up with a way to delete the row when the table is dropped.
I've looked into event triggers, but I can't find a way to determine the oid of the dropped table. Based on the information on the event trigger page and here https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/plpgsql-trigger.html#PLPGSQL-EVENT-TRIGGER it doesn't seem like there's any data provided about the object that the event affects.
Is there any way of ensuring maintained integrity between my metadata table and the referenced rows in pg_class
?
