SELECT or PERFORM in a PL/pgSQL function

问题

I have this function in my database:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION "insertarNuevoArticulo"(nombrearticulo character varying, descripcion text, idtipo integer, idfamilia bigint, artstock integer, minstock integer, maxstock integer, idmarca bigint, precio real, marcastock integer)
RETURNS boolean AS
$BODY$
DECLARE
    articulo "Articulo"%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
    SELECT * INTO articulo FROM "Articulo" WHERE "Nombre" = $1 AND "idTipo"=$3 AND "idFamilia"=$4;
    IF NOT FOUND THEN
        INSERT INTO "Articulo" ("Nombre", "Descripcion", "idTipo", "idFamilia", "Stock", "MinStock", "MaxStock") Values ($1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6, $7);
        SELECT last_value
        INTO articulo."idArticulo"
        FROM "public"."Articulo_idArticulo_seq";
    END IF;
    SELECT * FROM "ArticuloMarca" AS am WHERE am."idArticulo" = articulo."idArticulo" and am."idMarca" = $8;
    IF NOT FOUND THEN
        Insert into "ArticuloMarca"("idArticulo", "idMarca", "PrecioReferencial", "Stock") Values (articulo."idArticulo", $8, $9, $10);
        RETURN TRUE;
    END IF;
    RETURN FALSE;
END;
$BODY$
 LANGUAGE plpgsql VOLATILE
 COST 100;
 ALTER FUNCTION "insertarNuevoArticulo"(character varying, text, integer, bigint, integer, integer, integer, bigint, real, integer)
 OWNER TO postgres;

But as soon as I try to use it, it says I need to use PERFORM if I want to discard the results! The problem here is that I don't want to! I want them in the articulo row I declared!

I'm using this statement:

SELECT "insertarNuevoArticulo"('Acetaminofen', 'caro', '1' , '1', '8', '1', '10', '1', '150.7', '10');

And the error i get is 42601, a syntax error! How could it be if I'm using the IDE to create it? Any idea about the problem?

回答1:

In plpgsql code, SELECT without a target triggers an error. But you obviously do not want SELECT INTO, you just want to set the status of FOUND. You would use PERFORM for that.

SELECT raises exception in PL/pgSQL function

Better, yet, use IF EXISTS .... Consider this rewrite of your function:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION "insertarNuevoArticulo"
      (nombrearticulo text, descripcion text, idtipo int, idfamilia bigint, artstock int
     , minstock int, maxstock int, idmarca bigint, precio real, marcastock int)
  RETURNS boolean AS
$func$
DECLARE
    _id_articulo "Articulo"."idArticulo"%TYPE;
BEGIN
    SELECT a."idArticulo" INTO _id_articulo
    FROM   "Articulo" a
    WHERE  a."Nombre" = $1 AND a."idTipo" = $3 AND a."idFamilia" = $4;

    IF NOT FOUND THEN
        INSERT INTO "Articulo"("Nombre", "Descripcion", "idTipo"
                             , "idFamilia", "Stock", "MinStock", "MaxStock")
        VALUES ($1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6, $7)
        RETURNING "Articulo"."idArticulo" INTO _id_articulo;
    END IF;

   IF EXISTS (SELECT FROM "ArticuloMarca" a
              WHERE a."idArticulo" = _id_articulo AND a."idMarca" = $8) THEN
      RETURN FALSE;
   ELSE
      INSERT INTO "ArticuloMarca"("idArticulo", "idMarca", "PrecioReferencial", "Stock")
      VALUES (_id_articulo, $8, $9, $10);
      RETURN TRUE;
    END IF;
END
$func$  LANGUAGE plpgsql;

About EXISTS:

PL/pgSQL checking if a row exists

The other major point:

Use the RETURNING clause of the INSERT statement instead of an additional SELECT.

Postgres 9.5+

In Postgres 9.5 or later rather use an UPSERT instead: (INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING).
You would have UNIQUE constraints on "Articulo"("Nombre", "idTipo", "idFamilia") and "ArticuloMarca"("idArticulo", "idMarca") and then:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION insert_new_articulo
      (nombrearticulo text, descripcion text, idtipo int, idfamilia bigint, artstock int
     , minstock int, maxstock int, idmarca bigint, precio real, marcastock int)
  RETURNS boolean AS
$func$
DECLARE
    _id_articulo "Articulo"."idArticulo"%TYPE;
BEGIN
   LOOP
      SELECT "idArticulo" INTO _id_articulo
      FROM   "Articulo"
      WHERE  "Nombre" = $1 AND "idTipo" = $3 AND "idFamilia" = $4;

      EXIT WHEN FOUND;

      INSERT INTO "Articulo"("Nombre", "Descripcion", "idTipo"
                           , "idFamilia", "Stock", "MinStock", "MaxStock")
      VALUES ($1, $2, $3, $4, $5, $6, $7)
      ON     CONFLICT (tag) DO NOTHING
      RETURNING "idArticulo" INTO _id_articulo;

      EXIT WHEN FOUND;
   END LOOP;

   LOOP
      INSERT INTO "ArticuloMarca"("idArticulo", "idMarca", "PrecioReferencial", "Stock")
      VALUES (_id_articulo, $8, $9, $10)
      ON     CONFLICT ("idArticulo", "idMarca") DO NOTHING;

      IF FOUND THEN
         RETURN TRUE;
      END IF;

      IF EXISTS (SELECT FROM "ArticuloMarca"
                 WHERE "idArticulo" = _id_articulo AND "idMarca" = $8) THEN
         RETURN FALSE;
      END IF;
   END LOOP;
END
$func$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

This is faster, simpler and more reliable. The added loops rule out any remaining race conditions with concurrent writes (while adding hardly any cost). Without concurrent writes, you can simplify. Detailed explanation:

Aside: use legal, lower-case identifiers to avoid all the ugly double-quoting.

回答2:

This line looks suspicious to me and is probably what is causing your grief:

SELECT * FROM "ArticuloMarca" AS am WHERE am."idArticulo" = articulo."idArticulo" and am."idMarca" = $8;

You are executing a SELECT within your function, but not doing anything with the results. You need to perform a SELECT INTO like you did earlier in your function.
