Hi,
Either:
SELECT description, SUBSTRING( ls_price_and_date, 8, 13) price, SUBSTRING(
ls_price_and_date, 21) date
FROM (
SELECT art.description, f_art_get_price_str( art.id ) ls_price_and_date
FROM articulos art
) t;
Or use a CTE <https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/queries-with.html> (which is
the exact same thing
<https://paquier.xyz/postgresql-2/postgres-12-with-materialize/>):
WITH t AS (
SELECT art.description, f_art_get_price_str( art.id ) ls_price_and_date
FROM articulos art
)
SELECT description, SUBSTRING( ls_price_and_date, 8, 13) price, SUBSTRING(
ls_price_and_date, 21) date
FROM t;
Best,
Stelios
