Format arguments according to a format string.
This function is similar to the C function
<function>sprintf</>, but only the following conversion specifications
are recognized: <literal>%s</literal> interpolates the corresponding
argument as a string; <literal>%I</literal> escapes its argument as
an SQL identifier; <literal>%L</literal> escapes its argument as an
SQL literal; <literal>%%</literal> outputs a literal <literal>%</>.
A conversion can reference an explicit parameter position by preceding
the conversion specifier with <literal><replaceable>n</>$</>, where
<replaceable>n</replaceable> is the argument position.

<para>
The function <function>format</> produces output formatted according to
a format string, in a style similar to the C function
<function>sprintf</>.
</para>
<para>
<synopsis>
<function>format</>(<parameter>formatstr</> <type>text</> [, <parameter>formatarg</> <type>"any"</> [, ...] ])
</synopsis>
<replaceable>formatstr</> is a format string that specifies how the
result should be formatted. Text in the format string is copied
directly to the result, except where <firstterm>format specifiers</> are
used. Format specifiers act as placeholders in the string, defining how
subsequent function arguments should be formatted and inserted into the
result. Each <replaceable>formatarg</> argument is converted to text
according to the usual output rules for its data type, and then formatted
and inserted into the result string according to the format specifier(s).
</para>
<para>
Format specifiers are introduced by a <literal>%</> character and have
the form
<synopsis>
%[<replaceable>position</>][<replaceable>flags</>][<replaceable>width</>]<replaceable>type</>
</synopsis>
where the component fields are:
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><replaceable>position</replaceable> (optional)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
A string of the form <literal><replaceable>n</>$</> where
<replaceable>n</> is the index of the argument to print.
Index 1 means the first argument after
<replaceable>formatstr</>. If the <replaceable>position</> is
omitted, the default is to use the next argument in sequence.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><replaceable>flags</replaceable> (optional)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Additional options controlling how the format specifier's output is
formatted. Currently the only supported flag is a minus sign
(<literal>-</>) which will cause the format specifier's output to be
left-justified. This has no effect unless the <replaceable>width</>
field is also specified.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><replaceable>width</replaceable> (optional)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Specifies the <emphasis>minimum</> number of characters to use to
display the format specifier's output. The output is padded on the
left or right (depending on the <literal>-</> flag) with spaces as
needed to fill the width. A too-small width does not cause
truncation of the output, but is simply ignored. The width may be
specified using any of the following: a positive integer; an
asterisk (<literal>*</>) to use the next function argument as the
width; or a string of the form <literal>*<replaceable>n</>$</> to
use the <replaceable>n</>th function argument as the width.
</para>
<para>
If the width comes from a function argument, that argument is
consumed before the argument that is used for the format specifier's
value. If the width argument is negative, the result is left
aligned (as if the <literal>-</> flag had been specified) within a
field of length <function>abs</>(<replaceable>width</replaceable>).
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><replaceable>type</replaceable> (required)</term>
<listitem>
<para>
The type of format conversion to use to produce the format
specifier's output. The following types are supported:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
<literal>s</literal> formats the argument value as a simple
string. A null value is treated as an empty string.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<literal>I</literal> treats the argument value as an SQL
identifier, double-quoting it if necessary.
It is an error for the value to be null.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<literal>L</literal> quotes the argument value as an SQL literal.
A null value is displayed as the string <literal>NULL</>, without
quotes.
</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
</para>
<para>
In addition to the format specifiers described above, the special sequence
<literal>%%</> may be used to output a literal <literal>%</> character.
</para>
<para>
Here are some examples of the basic format conversions:
<screen>
SELECT format('Hello %s', 'World');
<lineannotation>Result: </lineannotation><computeroutput>Hello World</computeroutput>
SELECT format('Testing %s, %s, %s, %%', 'one', 'two', 'three');
<lineannotation>Result: </><computeroutput>Testing one, two, three, %</>
SELECT format('INSERT INTO %I VALUES(%L)', 'Foo bar', E'O\'Reilly');
<lineannotation>Result: </lineannotation><computeroutput>INSERT INTO "Foo bar" VALUES('O''Reilly')</computeroutput>
SELECT format('INSERT INTO %I VALUES(%L)', 'locations', E'C:\\Program Files');
<lineannotation>Result: </lineannotation><computeroutput>INSERT INTO locations VALUES(E'C:\\Program Files')</computeroutput>
</screen>
</para>
<para>
Here are examples using <replaceable>width</replaceable> fields
and the <literal>-</> flag:
<screen>
SELECT format('|%10s|', 'foo');
<lineannotation>Result: </><computeroutput>| foo|</>
SELECT format('|%-10s|', 'foo');
<lineannotation>Result: </><computeroutput>|foo |</>
SELECT format('|%*s|', 10, 'foo');
<lineannotation>Result: </><computeroutput>| foo|</>
SELECT format('|%*s|', -10, 'foo');
<lineannotation>Result: </><computeroutput>|foo |</>
SELECT format('|%-*s|', 10, 'foo');
<lineannotation>Result: </><computeroutput>|foo |</>
SELECT format('|%-*s|', -10, 'foo');
<lineannotation>Result: </><computeroutput>|foo |</>
</screen>
</para>
<para>
These examples show use of <replaceable>position</> fields:
<screen>
SELECT format('Testing %3$s, %2$s, %1$s', 'one', 'two', 'three');
<lineannotation>Result: </><computeroutput>Testing three, two, one</>
SELECT format('|%*2$s|', 'foo', 10, 'bar');
<lineannotation>Result: </><computeroutput>| bar|</>
SELECT format('|%1$*2$s|', 'foo', 10, 'bar');
<lineannotation>Result: </><computeroutput>| foo|</>
</screen>
</para>
<para>
Unlike the standard C function <function>sprintf</>,
<productname>PostgreSQL</>'s <function>format</> function allows format
specifiers with and without <replaceable>position</> fields to be mixed
in the same format string. A format specifier without a
<replaceable>position</> field always uses the next argument after the
last argument consumed.
In addition, the <function>format</> function does not require all
function arguments to be used in the format string.
For example:
<screen>
SELECT format('Testing %3$s, %2$s, %s', 'one', 'two', 'three');
<lineannotation>Result: </><computeroutput>Testing three, two, three</>
</screen>
</para>
<para>
The <literal>%I</> and <literal>%L</> format specifiers are particularly
useful for safely constructing dynamic SQL statements. See
<xref linkend="plpgsql-quote-literal-example">.
