You can't. Per the comment in coerce_type:
* For most types we pass typmod -1 to t
Hi,
whenever pg calls my input function, the type modifier parameter is
ALWAYS (-1). If I specify a type modifier like
SELECT 'Hello World!'::my_string_type(MODIFIER1,MODIFIER2);
then pg:
1. calls the my_string_type-typmod_in function, and gets the correct result
2. calls the my_string_type-i
