Re: vacuumdb for schema only

Hi!

I would also expect you to be able to make a Stored Procedure executing the same command, although I never tried it myself.

It is not possible... vacuum cannot be executed inside a function or transaction.

See de sample:

-- Using function

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION fc_vacuum(TEXT) RETURNS VOID AS

$$

BEGIN

  EXECUTE 'VACUUM '||$1;

  RETURN;

END;

$$

LANGUAGE plpgsql;

postgres@bdteste=# select fc_vacuum('foo');

ERROR:  VACUUM cannot be executed from a function

CONTEXT:  SQL statement "VACUUM foo"

PL/pgSQL function "fc_vacuum" line 2 at execute statement

-- Using transaction

postgres@bdteste=# begin;

BEGIN

postgres@bdteste=# VACUUM foo;

ERROR:  VACUUM cannot run inside a transaction block

Best regards,
