How can we execute Oracle sequence in Postgres?












0














In between migration from Oracle to Postgres, I need to execute some insert statement for an Oracle table from Postgres (in which the primary key field is using a sequence for uniqueness).



Now at the time of the migration I am converting some procedure that is used to insert a row in a table, but I can't move table directly from oracle to Postgres due to a higher dependency on the table.



That's why I need to execute an Oracle sequence from Postgres.

The simplest solution is probably to create a view in Oracle that doesn't contain the column that is to be filled from the sequence.



Then define a trigger on the table that fills the column from the sequence when NULL and creare a foreign table on the view.



Wheb you INSERT into the foreign table, the column will get filled by the trigger.

  • You don't really need the view - the trigger could simply ignore any value supplied for that column or check for NULL and only then use the sequence

  • Sure, that's an option if you never want to explicitly fill the column.
