Following up in case someone else runs into this problem. I changed the
function the CHECK statement called to raise a warning. Not perfect, but
noticeably better. I don't get the column that failed but I do get what bad
input gummed things up.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION po.confirm(p_val anyelement, p_validated boolean)
RETURNS boolean LANGUAGE plpgsql STRICT IMMUTABLE PARALLEL SAFE AS $$
BEGIN
IF NOT p_validated THEN
RAISE WARNING 'Invalid value: %', p_val;
END IF;
RETURN p_validated;
END;
$$;
COMMENT ON FUNCTION po.confirm(anyelement,boolean) IS
'Raises a warning when a condition is false; useful for outputting CHECK
constraint error values.';
CREATE DOMAIN po.email AS varchar
CHECK (po.confirm(VALUE, VALUE IS NULL OR NOT po.email_expanded(VALUE) IS
NULL));
Code is not seamless or DRY, but manageable.
