<@257641125135908866> https://github.com/turbo/pg-shortkey

run this script https://github.com/turbo/pg-shortkey/blob/master/pg-shortkey.sql on the SQL Editor

here u have an example for the trigger https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32183363/default-value-for-column-postgres-function-with-argument

can i not make the trigger field my primary key?

because primary keys require a value before and triggers only run after i insert

im trying to insert through the interactive editor on supabase

<@!257641125135908866> the repo has an example, if u ran the script then u can use de new domain created as a new type in your Columns

```
CREATE TABLE test (id SHORTKEY PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT);
```

`SHORTKEY`

to generate a new value run `select shortkey_generate()`
