I have a procedure which contain this piece of code
SELECT query INTO query FROM temp_table_test WHERE id = whateverId;
EXECUTE query;
My query variable will contain something like
CALL Someprocedure (withSomeParameters)
How can i make the parameter dynamic in the first proc as they can change time to time and i can't make them static in the variable ?
in t-SQL there is something with
sp_executesql
But as I'm very new to postgres I don't know where to start.
CodePudding user response:
assuming you are using pl/pgsql, you can pass parameters with the USING clause;
EXECUTE query USING $1, $2, $3, ...;
for example;
query = 'SELECT SUM( "field_a" ) FROM "table" WHERE "field_b" = $1 AND "field_c" = $2';
EXECUTE query USING 5, 10;
this will be equal to:
SELECT SUM( "field_a" ) FROM "table" WHERE "field_b" = 5 AND "field_c" = 10;
