Yes, I saw those, hence asking on the list if there was a way to do it.
Using a trigger.
To expand:
create table t (
x integer not null generated always as identity,
y integer not null
);
insert into t(y) values (1);
select * from t;
x | y
---+---
1 | 1
(1 row)
CREATE FUNCTION identity_test( )
RETURNS trigger
LANGUAGE plpgsql
AS $function$
BEGIN
NEW.y = NEW.x * 2;
RETURN NEW;
END;
$function$
;
create trigger identity_trg before insert on t for each row execute
function identity_test();
insert into t(y) values (0);
select * from t;
x | y
---+---
1 | 1
2 | 4
(2 rows)
I'll handle it with multiple statements.
