3.21. Languages

Languages are the basis for constructing functions in a database. This kind of object generates commands to register a new procedural language in a PostgreSQL database. You can create your own language with its proper syntax through the handler functions but writing these functions is quite an advanced topic and demands the creation of C-styled functions which is not covered by this document.

Attribute Description
Trusted This attribute tells the server that the language does not grant access to data that the user eventually does not have permission to handle.
Handler Function Defines the function that will be called to execute the procedural language's functions. This function must have the following signature: language_handler function().
Validator Function Defines the function that will be called when a new function in the language is created, to validate that new object. This function must have the signature: void function(oid).
Inline Function Defines the function that will be called to execute an anonymous code block (a DO command) in this language. This function must have the signature: void function(internal).
