Yes, plpython can return setofs. You may need to define a new type for
that.
After that you can return a list, tuple, dictionary, set, generator
object, or any
You may also check the plpython version, as i recall, its kind of *new*
issue.
This works on 8.2.5, python 2.5,
For a simple case, something like that would work
regression=# \d countries
Table "public.countries"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------------+-------------------+-----------
country_id | integer |
country_name | character varying |
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION get_countries()
returns setof countries
security definer
as
$$
return plpy.execute("select * from countries")
$$ language plpythonu;
Hope that helps.
