I've always tended to use:
INSERT INTO tablename SELECT rowvariable.* ;
It does have the downside that you need to set defaults yourself, eg
manually set a SERIAL column to nextval('sequence_name') ... but that's
not really a big deal.
eg:
CREATE TABLE demo_tab (
id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
fd1 INTEGER,
fd2 INTEGER
);
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION demo_row_insert(INTEGER,INTEGER) RETURNS VOID
AS $$
DECLARE
demo_tab_row demo_tab%rowtype;
arg1 ALIAS FOR $1;
arg2 ALIAS FOR $2;
BEGIN
demo_tab_row.id := nextval('demo_tab_id_seq');
demo_tab_row.fd1 := arg1;
demo_tab_row.fd2 := arg2;
INSERT INTO demo_tab SELECT demo_tab_row.*;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
