Re: Automate copy - Postgres 9.2

Hi guys,

I created this function:

CREATE or REPLACE FUNCTION function(account_id integer)

RETURNS void AS $$

begin

execute 'COPY

(

SELECT * FROM backup_table WHERE account_id = ' || account_id || 'AND
> status = 1

)

TO ''/var/lib/pgsql/'||account_id||'.sql''';

end

$$ language 'plpgsql';

The function works fine.. but is not what I need, actually.
The function above works by calling it specifying the account_id. For
example:

You want to copy ( backup ) for the account_id number 63742:

select function(63742);

*What I need is:*

When calling the function, I have to specify the limit of account_ids to be
copied. For example:
To perform the commands in the function to 40 different account_ids:

select function (40);

How can I do that? I can't...

Cheers
Patrick
