-- This runs some common tests against the type
--
-- It's used just for development
--
-- XXX would be nice to turn this into a proper regression test
--

-- Check what is in pg_largeobject
SELECT count(DISTINCT loid) FROM pg_largeobject;

-- ignore any errors here - simply drop the table if it already exists
DROP TABLE a;

-- create the test table
CREATE TABLE a (fname name,image lo);

-- insert a null object
INSERT INTO a VALUES ('empty');

-- insert a large object based on a file
INSERT INTO a VALUES ('/etc/group', lo_import('/etc/group')::lo);

-- now select the table
SELECT * FROM a;

-- check that coercion to plain oid works
SELECT *,image::oid from a;

-- now test the trigger
CREATE TRIGGER t_a
BEFORE UPDATE OR DELETE ON a
FOR EACH ROW
EXECUTE PROCEDURE lo_manage(image);

-- insert
INSERT INTO a VALUES ('aa', lo_import('/etc/hosts'));
SELECT * FROM a
WHERE fname LIKE 'aa%';

-- update
UPDATE a SET image=lo_import('/etc/group')::lo
WHERE fname='aa';
SELECT * FROM a
WHERE fname LIKE 'aa%';

-- update the 'empty' row which should be null
UPDATE a SET image=lo_import('/etc/hosts')
WHERE fname='empty';
SELECT * FROM a
WHERE fname LIKE 'empty%';
UPDATE a SET image=null
WHERE fname='empty';
SELECT * FROM a
WHERE fname LIKE 'empty%';

-- delete the entry
DELETE FROM a
WHERE fname='aa';
SELECT * FROM a
WHERE fname LIKE 'aa%';

-- This deletes the table contents. Note, if you comment this out, and
-- expect the drop table to remove the objects, think again. The trigger
-- doesn't get fired by drop table.
DELETE FROM a;

-- finally drop the table
DROP TABLE a;

-- Check what is in pg_largeobject ... if different from original, trouble
SELECT count(DISTINCT loid) FROM pg_largeobject;

-- end of tests
