This adds a new object type "procedure" that is similar to a function but does not have a return type and is invoked by the new CALL statement instead of SELECT or similar. This implementation is aligned with the SQL standard and compatible with or similar to other SQL implementations. This commit adds new commands CALL, CREATE/ALTER/DROP PROCEDURE, as well as ALTER/DROP ROUTINE that can refer to either a function or a procedure (or an aggregate function, as an extension to SQL). There is also support for procedures in various utility commands such as COMMENT and GRANT, as well as support in pg_dump and psql. Support for defining procedures is available in all the languages supplied by the core distribution. While this commit is mainly syntax sugar around existing functionality, future features will rely on having procedures as a separate object type.

The information schema consists of a set of views that contain
|
|
information about the objects defined in the current database. The
|
|
information schema is defined in the SQL standard and can therefore
|
|
be expected to be portable and remain stable — unlike the system
|
|
catalogs, which are specific to
|
|
<productname>PostgreSQL</productname> and are modeled after
|
|
implementation concerns. The information schema views do not,
|
|
however, contain information about
|
|
<productname>PostgreSQL</productname>-specific features; to inquire
|
|
about those you need to query the system catalogs or other
|
|
<productname>PostgreSQL</productname>-specific views.

|
|
When querying the database for constraint information, it is possible
|
|
for a standard-compliant query that expects to return one row to
|
|
return several. This is because the SQL standard requires constraint
|
|
names to be unique within a schema, but
|
|
<productname>PostgreSQL</productname> does not enforce this
|
|
restriction. <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>
|
|
automatically-generated constraint names avoid duplicates in the
|
|
same schema, but users can specify such duplicate names.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
This problem can appear when querying information schema views such
|
|
as <literal>check_constraint_routine_usage</literal>,
|
|
<literal>check_constraints</literal>, <literal>domain_constraints</literal>, and
|
|
<literal>referential_constraints</literal>. Some other views have similar
|
|
issues but contain the table name to help distinguish duplicate
|
|
rows, e.g., <literal>constraint_column_usage</literal>,
|
|
<literal>constraint_table_usage</literal>, <literal>table_constraints</literal>.

<title>The Schema</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The information schema itself is a schema named
|
|
<literal>information_schema</literal>. This schema automatically
|
|
exists in all databases. The owner of this schema is the initial
|
|
database user in the cluster, and that user naturally has all the
|
|
privileges on this schema, including the ability to drop it (but
|
|
the space savings achieved by that are minuscule).
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
By default, the information schema is not in the schema search
|
|
path, so you need to access all objects in it through qualified
|
|
names. Since the names of some of the objects in the information
|
|
schema are generic names that might occur in user applications, you
|
|
should be careful if you want to put the information schema in the
|
|
path.

<para>
|

The columns of the information schema views use special data types
|
|
that are defined in the information schema. These are defined as
|
|
simple domains over ordinary built-in types. You should not use
|
|
these types for work outside the information schema, but your
|
|
applications must be prepared for them if they select from the
|
|
information schema.

<para>

An encoding of some character repertoire. Most older character
|
|
repertoires only use one encoding form, and so there are no
|
|
separate names for them (e.g., <literal>LATIN1</literal> is an
|
|
encoding form applicable to the <literal>LATIN1</literal>
|
|
repertoire). But for example Unicode has the encoding forms
|
|
<literal>UTF8</literal>, <literal>UTF16</literal>, etc. (not
|
|
all supported by PostgreSQL). Encoding forms are not exposed
|
|
as an SQL object, but are visible in this view.

<para>
|
|
A named SQL object that identifies a character repertoire, a
|
|
character encoding, and a default collation. A predefined
|
|
character set would typically have the same name as an encoding
|
|
form, but users could define other names. For example, the
|
|
character set <literal>UTF8</literal> would typically identify
|
|
the character repertoire <literal>UCS</literal>, encoding
|
|
form <literal>UTF8</literal>, and some default collation.

You can think of an <quote>encoding</quote> in PostgreSQL either as
|
|
a character set or a character encoding form. They will have the
|
|
same name, and there can only be one in one database.

<para>
|
|
Since data types can be defined in a variety of ways in SQL, and
|
|
<productname>PostgreSQL</productname> contains additional ways to
|
|
define data types, their representation in the information schema
|
|
can be somewhat difficult. The column <literal>data_type</literal>
|
|
is supposed to identify the underlying built-in type of the column.
|
|
In <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>, this means that the type
|
|
is defined in the system catalog schema
|
|
<literal>pg_catalog</literal>. This column might be useful if the
|
|
application can handle the well-known built-in types specially (for
|
|
example, format the numeric types differently or use the data in
|
|
the precision columns). The columns <literal>udt_name</literal>,
|
|
<literal>udt_schema</literal>, and <literal>udt_catalog</literal>
|
|
always identify the underlying data type of the column, even if the
|
|
column is based on a domain. (Since
|
|
<productname>PostgreSQL</productname> treats built-in types like
|
|
user-defined types, built-in types appear here as well. This is an
|
|
extension of the SQL standard.) These columns should be used if an
|
|
application wants to process data differently according to the
|
|
type, because in that case it wouldn't matter if the column is
|
|
really based on a domain. If the column is based on a domain, the
|
|
identity of the domain is stored in the columns
|
|
<literal>domain_name</literal>, <literal>domain_schema</literal>,
|
|
and <literal>domain_catalog</literal>. If you want to pair up
|
|
columns with their associated data types and treat domains as
|
|
separate types, you could write <literal>coalesce(domain_name,
|
|
udt_name)</literal>, etc.

An identifier of the data type descriptor of the domain, unique

among the data type descriptors pertaining to the domain (which

is trivial, because a domain only contains one data type

descriptor). This is mainly useful for joining with other
|
|
instances of such identifiers. (The specific format of the
|

identifier is not defined and not guaranteed to remain the same

<para>
|
|
The view <literal>element_types</literal> contains the data type
|
|
descriptors of the elements of arrays. When a table column, composite-type attribute,
|
|
domain, function parameter, or function return value is defined to
|
|
be of an array type, the respective information schema view only
|
|
contains <literal>ARRAY</literal> in the column
|
|
<literal>data_type</literal>. To obtain information on the element
|
|
type of the array, you can join the respective view with this view.
|
|
For example, to show the columns of a table with data types and
|
|
array element types, if applicable, you could do:
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
SELECT c.column_name, c.data_type, e.data_type AS element_type
|
|
FROM information_schema.columns c LEFT JOIN information_schema.element_types e
|
|
ON ((c.table_catalog, c.table_schema, c.table_name, 'TABLE', c.dtd_identifier)
|
|
= (e.object_catalog, e.object_schema, e.object_name, e.object_type, e.collection_type_identifier))
|
|
WHERE c.table_schema = '...' AND c.table_name = '...'
|
|
ORDER BY c.ordinal_position;
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
This view only includes objects that the current user has access
|
|
to, by way of being the owner or having some privilege.

In the SQL standard, <literal>WITH HIERARCHY OPTION</literal>

is a separate (sub-)privilege allowing certain operations on

table inheritance hierarchies. In PostgreSQL, this is included

in the <literal>SELECT</literal> privilege, so this column

is a separate (sub-)privilege allowing certain operations on

table inheritance hierarchies. In PostgreSQL, this is included

<para>
|
|
Triggers in <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> have two
|
|
incompatibilities with the SQL standard that affect the
|
|
representation in the information schema. First, trigger names are
|
|
local to each table in <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>, rather
|
|
than being independent schema objects. Therefore there can be duplicate
|
|
trigger names defined in one schema, so long as they belong to
|
|
different tables. (<literal>trigger_catalog</literal> and
|
|
<literal>trigger_schema</literal> are really the values pertaining
|
|
to the table that the trigger is defined on.) Second, triggers can
|
|
be defined to fire on multiple events in
|
|
<productname>PostgreSQL</productname> (e.g., <literal>ON INSERT OR
|
|
UPDATE</literal>), whereas the SQL standard only allows one. If a
|
|
trigger is defined to fire on multiple events, it is represented as
|
|
multiple rows in the information schema, one for each type of
|
|
event. As a consequence of these two issues, the primary key of
|
|
the view <literal>triggers</literal> is really
|
|
<literal>(trigger_catalog, trigger_schema, event_object_table,
|
|
trigger_name, event_manipulation)</literal> instead of
|
|
<literal>(trigger_catalog, trigger_schema, trigger_name)</literal>,
|
|
which is what the SQL standard specifies. Nonetheless, if you
|
|
define your triggers in a manner that conforms with the SQL
|
|
standard (trigger names unique in the schema and only one event
|
|
type per trigger), this will not affect you.
|

The view <literal>usage_privileges</literal> identifies
|
|
<literal>USAGE</literal> privileges granted on various kinds of
|
|
objects to a currently enabled role or by a currently enabled role.
|
|
In <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>, this currently applies to
|
|
collations, domains, foreign-data wrappers, foreign servers, and sequences. There is one
|
|
row for each combination of object, grantor, and grantee.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Since collations do not have real privileges
|
|
in <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>, this view shows implicit
|
|
non-grantable <literal>USAGE</literal> privileges granted by the
|
|
owner to <literal>PUBLIC</literal> for all collations. The other
|
|
object types, however, show real privileges.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
In PostgreSQL, sequences also support <literal>SELECT</literal>
|
|
and <literal>UPDATE</literal> privileges in addition to
|
|
the <literal>USAGE</literal> privilege. These are nonstandard and therefore
|
|
not visible in the information schema.

The view <literal>user_defined_types</literal> currently contains

all composite types defined in the current database.

<para>

SQL knows about two kinds of user-defined types: structured types
|
|
(also known as composite types
|
|
in <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>) and distinct types (not
|
|
implemented in <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>). To be
|
|
future-proof, use the
|
|
column <literal>user_defined_type_category</literal> to
|
|
differentiate between these. Other user-defined types such as base
|
|
types and enums, which are <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>
|
|
extensions, are not shown here. For domains,
|
|
see <xref linkend="infoschema-domains"/> instead.
