+ <code class="function">plpy.error</code> and <code class="function">plpy.fatal</code>
+ actually raise a Python exception which, if uncaught, propagates out to
+ the calling query, causing the current transaction or subtransaction to
+ be aborted. <code class="literal">raise plpy.Error(<em class="replaceable"><code>msg</code></em>)</code> and
+ <code class="literal">raise plpy.Fatal(<em class="replaceable"><code>msg</code></em>)</code> are
+ equivalent to calling <code class="literal">plpy.error(<em class="replaceable"><code>msg</code></em>)</code> and
+ <code class="literal">plpy.fatal(<em class="replaceable"><code>msg</code></em>)</code>, respectively but
+ the <code class="literal">raise</code> form does not allow passing keyword arguments.
+ The other functions only generate messages of different priority levels.
+ Whether messages of a particular priority are reported to the client,
+ written to the server log, or both is controlled by the
+ <a class="xref" href="runtime-config-logging.html#GUC-LOG-MIN-MESSAGES">log_min_messages</a> and
+ <a class="xref" href="runtime-config-client.html#GUC-CLIENT-MIN-MESSAGES">client_min_messages</a> configuration
+ variables. See <a class="xref" href="runtime-config.html" title="Chapter 20. Server Configuration">Chapter 20</a> for more information.
+ </p><p>
+ The <em class="replaceable"><code>msg</code></em> argument is given as a positional argument. For
+ backward compatibility, more than one positional argument can be given. In
+ that case, the string representation of the tuple of positional arguments
+ becomes the message reported to the client.
+ </p><p>
+ The following keyword-only arguments are accepted:
+ </p><table border="0" summary="Simple list" class="simplelist"><tr><td><code class="literal">detail</code></td></tr><tr><td><code class="literal">hint</code></td></tr><tr><td><code class="literal">sqlstate</code></td></tr><tr><td><code class="literal">schema_name</code></td></tr><tr><td><code class="literal">table_name</code></td></tr><tr><td><code class="literal">column_name</code></td></tr><tr><td><code class="literal">datatype_name</code></td></tr><tr><td><code class="literal">constraint_name</code></td></tr></table><p>
+ The string representation of the objects passed as keyword-only arguments
+ is used to enrich the messages reported to the client. For example:
+
+</p><pre class="programlisting">
+CREATE FUNCTION raise_custom_exception() RETURNS void AS $$
+plpy.error("custom exception message",
+ detail="some info about exception",
+ hint="hint for users")
+$$ LANGUAGE plpython3u;

+=# SELECT raise_custom_exception();
+ERROR: plpy.Error: custom exception message

+HINT: hint for users

+ </p><p>
+ Another set of utility functions are
+ <code class="literal">plpy.quote_literal(<em class="replaceable"><code>string</code></em>)</code>,
+ <code class="literal">plpy.quote_nullable(<em class="replaceable"><code>string</code></em>)</code>, and
+ <code class="literal">plpy.quote_ident(<em class="replaceable"><code>string</code></em>)</code>. They
+ are equivalent to the built-in quoting functions described in <a class="xref" href="functions-string.html" title="9.4. String Functions and Operators">Section 9.4</a>. They are useful when constructing
+ ad-hoc queries. A PL/Python equivalent of dynamic SQL from <a class="xref" href="plpgsql-statements.html#PLPGSQL-QUOTE-LITERAL-EXAMPLE" title="Example 43.1. Quoting Values in Dynamic Queries">Example 43.1</a> would be:
