Hello,
I'm in the very very very very early stages of migrating a MySQL/PHP app to
PostgreSQL/PHP/Lua. Because we are moving to PostgreSQL one of the [many]
things I intend to change is to move ALL the SQL code/logic out of the
application layer and into the database where it belongs. So after months
of reading the [fine] PostgreSQL manual my first experiment is to port some
PHP/SQL code to a PostgreSQL function.
At this stage the function is a purely academic exercise because like I
said before it's early days so no data has been migrated yet so I don't
have data to test it against. My reason for sharing at such an early stage
is because all I've done so far is read the [fine] manual and I'd like to
know if I've groked at least some of the material.
I would appreciate any feedback you can provide. I am particularly
interested in learning about the most efficient way to do things in
PL/pgSQL because I would hate for the first iteration of the new version of
the app to be slower than the old version.
Thank you for your consideration,
Dane
