Re: Function and Tables Privilege

Well, a view is the easiest thing, grant permissions to the view
andrevoke them from the base table.However, if you actually want
functions, you should be able to saysomething like:create table
testtable(a text, b int);create function gettesttable() returns setof
testtable as ' select * fromtesttable where a = SESSION_USER;' language
'SQL' security definer;This example is one that really would make
more sense as a view, butimagine that the function was plpgsql and
actually did somethinginteresting.What have you tried so
far?----------------------
What I was thinking, would be something on the line of enable privilege
at the begining of the function and disable privilege and the end to restore
the currente_user privileges, from wot i understand, this way the function
would execute with it´s onwer´s privileges.
would it not be advisable not to use a view?.. i want to insert into a
table via a function, so that, i can only access the especific table through
the functions parameters. is this any clear?
thanks once again
