Re: ENABLE / DISABLE ALL TRIGGERS IN DATABASE

Hi,

I made the function myself. Here is it, if anyone else has a need for this.

Teemu

/* Enable/disable all the triggers in database */
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION fn_triggerall(DoEnable boolean) RETURNS integer AS
$BODY$
DECLARE
mytables RECORD;
BEGIN
FOR mytables IN SELECT relname FROM pg_class WHERE reltriggers > 0 AND NOT relname LIKE 'pg_%'
LOOP
IF DoEnable THEN
EXECUTE 'ALTER TABLE ' || mytables.relname || ' ENABLE TRIGGER ALL';
ELSE
EXECUTE 'ALTER TABLE ' || mytables.relname || ' DISABLE TRIGGER ALL';
END IF;
END LOOP;

RETURN 1;

END;
$BODY$
LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' VOLATILE;
ALTER FUNCTION fn_triggerall(DoEnable boolean) OWNER TO postgres;
COMMENT ON FUNCTION fn_triggerall(DoEnable boolean) IS 'Enable/disable all the triggers in database';

Subject: [GENERAL] ENABLE / DISABLE ALL TRIGGERS IN DATABASE

Hi,

I think this has been asked before, but I can't find the answer from arcive nor google. How to disable/enable all the riggers in a database? I have problem with disabled triggers after database restore. If there is no simple way, could this be made in a function where you find the table names and construct the needed commands in strings. If so, how to get all the tablenames from database?

Best regards and thanks!
