I'm having my first try at a PL/Python function. It is also a first try
at Python, so the answer to this may be obvious.
According to the docs (8.0):
Calling plpy.execute with a query string and an optional limit
argument causes that query to be run and the result to be
returned in a result object. The result object emulates a list
or dictionary object. The result object can be accessed by row
number and column name. It has these additional methods: nrows
which returns the number of rows returned by the query, and
status which is the SPI_execute() return value.
What exactly is the syntax for using the nrows and status methods?
I am trying to use it like this:
...
arec = plpy.execute(plan, [ addrno ], 1)
plpy.info("Executed plan")
n = plpy.nrows(arec)
plpy.info(" got nrows")
...
This gives the output:
advacs=# select core.formatted_address(1);
INFO: ('Prepared plan',)
INFO: ('Executed plan',)
ERROR: plpython: function "formatted_address" failed
DETAIL: exceptions.AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'nrows'
If I use
n = arec.nrows
the message becomes
DETAIL: exceptions.SystemError: error return without exception set
so how do you use it?
