- .IR relname
- and will execute the specified
- .IR funcname .
- Only relation owner may create a trigger on this relation.
- Currently, STATEMENT triggers are not implemented.
- .PP
- The trigger can be specified to fire either
- .BR before
- the operation is attempted on a tuple (e.g. before constraints are checked and
- the insert/update/delete is attempted) or
- .BR after
- the operation has been attempted (e.g. after constraints are checked and the
- insert/update/delete has completed).
- If the trigger fires
- .BR before
- then the trigger may
- skip the operation for the current tuple,
- or change tuple being inserted (for insert/update operations only).
- If the trigger fires
- .BR after
- then all changes including the last insertion/updation/deletion
- are "visible" to trigger.
