在How to UPSERT (MERGE, INSERT ... ON DUPLICATE UPDATE) in PostgreSQL?阅读后,我很好奇UPSERT的哪种方法更好(也更快)。
我目前正在编写一个应用程序,在大多数情况下,数据只会更新(新行很少见)因此我认为最好不要先尝试插入(来自Postgres DOCS)这种方法:
CREATE FUNCTION merge_db(key INT, data TEXT) RETURNS VOID AS
$$
BEGIN
LOOP
-- first try to update the key
UPDATE db SET b = data WHERE a = key;
IF found THEN
RETURN;
END IF;
-- not there, so try to insert the key
-- if someone else inserts the same key concurrently,
-- we could get a unique-key failure
BEGIN
INSERT INTO db(a,b) VALUES (key, data);
RETURN;
EXCEPTION WHEN unique_violation THEN
-- Do nothing, and loop to try the UPDATE again.
END;
END LOOP;
END;
$$
LANGUAGE plpgsql;
或者更好地使用INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
?
