londiste3 should complain if triggers are not in place

Open emiel opened this issue 13 years ago • 1 comments

Should londiste complain loudly if the triggers are not in place but the table is added locally? I was trying out the simple example using pgbench. pgbench will drop the tables and recreate them which removes the triggers. londiste however did not complain in any way. 'londiste3 $ini tables' shows the merge_state as 'ok' even if there are no triggers in place... seems like a dangerous situation. Just thinking out load here.

Usual attitude has been that admin is allowed to mess around if he knows what he is doing. So perhaps no?

I think better fix will be the upcoming event triggers in Postgres so Londiste can be notified about DDL actions.
