pg-structure / NormalFunction

# Class: NormalFunction

Class which represent a PostgreSQL (normal function. Provides attributes and methods for details of the normal function. Class name is NormalFunction because procedures, aggregate functions, and window functions are classified as functions by PostgreSQL. The term "normal function" is used by PostgreSQL. See prokind attribute at https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/catalog-pg-proc.html.

# Properties

# arguments

• Readonly arguments: default<FunctionArgument, name, argumentNumber, true>

All function arguments of the {@link Function function} as an {@link IndexableArray indexable array} ordered by same order they are defined in PostgreSQL {@link Function function}.

Please note that, name is not required for PostgreSQL function arguments. There may be multiple empty string arguments. {@link IndexableArray https://www.npmjs.com/package/indexable-array} returns first one. You may also use getAll to get all unnamed arguments as an array.

# Example

myFunc.arguments.get("maxVal");
myFunc.arguments.getAll("");

# comment

• Optional Readonly comment: undefined | string

Comment of the database object defined in database including {@link DbObject#commentData comment data}.

Inherited from: Func.comment

Defined in: pg-structure/base/db-object.ts:75

# estimatedCost

• Readonly estimatedCost: number

Estimated execution cost (in units of cpu_operator_cost); if proretset, this is cost per row returned

Inherited from: Func.estimatedCost

Defined in: pg-structure/base/func.ts:108

# estimatedRows

• Readonly estimatedRows: number

Estimated number of result rows (zero if not proretset)

Inherited from: Func.estimatedRows

Defined in: pg-structure/base/func.ts:111

# isLeakProof

• Readonly isLeakProof: boolean

The function has no side effects. No information about the arguments is conveyed except via the return value. Any function that might throw an error depending on the values of its arguments is not leak-proof.

Inherited from: Func.isLeakProof

Defined in: pg-structure/base/func.ts:114

# isStrict

• Readonly isStrict: boolean

Whether function returns null if any call argument is null.

Inherited from: Func.isStrict

# language

• Readonly language: string

Language name of the function.

Inherited from: Func.language

Defined in: pg-structure/base/func.ts:105

# name

• Readonly name: string

Name of the database object.

Inherited from: Func.name

# oid

• Readonly oid: number

Object identifier for the {@link Function}

Inherited from: Func.oid

Defined in: pg-structure/base/func.ts:96

# parallelSafety

• Readonly parallelSafety: ParallelSafety

whether the function can be safely run in parallel mode.

Inherited from: Func.parallelSafety

Defined in: pg-structure/base/func.ts:120

# returnType

• Readonly returnType: Type

Data type of the return value.

Inherited from: Func.returnType

Defined in: pg-structure/base/func.ts:126

# returnsArray

# returnsSet

• Readonly returnsSet: boolean

Whether function returns a set.

Inherited from: Func.returnsSet

Defined in: pg-structure/base/func.ts:129

# schema

# source

• Readonly source: string

Source definition of the function.

Inherited from: Func.source

Defined in: pg-structure/base/func.ts:102

# volatility

• Readonly volatility: Volatility

Whether the function's result depends only on its input arguments, or is affected by outside factors.

Inherited from: Func.volatility

Defined in: pg-structure/base/func.ts:123

# Accessors

# commentData

Data which is extracted from database object's comment. Data is extracted from text between special case-insensitive tag (default: [pg-structure][/pg-structure]) and converted to JavaScript object using JSON5 (opens new window). Token name can be specified by using commentDataToken arguments. For details of JSON5 (opens new window), see it's web site: https://json5.org (opens new window).

# Example

// "Account details. [pg-structure]{ extraData: 2 }[/pg-structure] Also used for logging."
table.comment;               // "Account details. [pg-structure]{ extraData: 2 }[/pg-structure] Also used for logging."
table.commentWithoutData;    // "Account details.  Also used for logging."
table.commentData;           // { extraData: 2 }
table.commentData.extraData; // 2

Defined in: pg-structure/base/db-object.ts:102

# commentWithoutData

• get commentWithoutData(): undefined | string

Description or comment of the database object defined in database. If comment contains {@link DbObject#commentData comment data}, it is removed.

# Example

// "Account details. [pg-structure]{ extraData: 2 }[/pg-structure] Also used for logging."
table.commentWithoutData;    // "Account details.  Also used for logging."

Returns: undefined | string

Defined in: pg-structure/base/db-object.ts:85

# db

• get db(): Db

Database of the database object.

Returns: Db

Defined in: pg-structure/base/db-object.ts:68

# fullCatalogName

• get fullCatalogName(): string

Full name of the database object including database name.

Returns: string

Defined in: pg-structure/base/db-object.ts:35

# fullName

• get fullName(): string

Full name of the object with '.' notation including Schema name.

# Example

const fullName = func.fullName; // public.some_func

Returns: string

Defined in: pg-structure/base/func.ts:158

# nameCaseType

• get nameCaseType(): CaseType

Letter casing (i.e snakeCase or camelCase) of the database object name.

# Example

const name = entity.name;                        // ProductDetail
const caseType = entity.nameCaseType;            // camelCase

const otherEntity = otherEntity.name;            // member_protocol
const otherCaseType = otherEntity.nameCaseType;  // snakeCase

Returns: CaseType

Defined in: pg-structure/base/db-object.ts:54

# separator

• get separator(): string

Separator used in database object name. Empty string for came case and underscore for (_) snake case.

Returns: string

Defined in: pg-structure/base/db-object.ts:61
