Hello
Please forgive me if this has been discussed before.
\dv and other lists SQL are unnecessarily complicated.
They all seem to be based on the \d SQL
\dv currently uses
SELECT c.relname as "Name",
CASE c.relkind WHEN 'r' THEN 'table' WHEN 'v' THEN 'view' WHEN 'i'
THEN 'index' WHEN 'S' THEN 'sequence' WHEN 's' THEN 'special' END as
"Type",
u.usename as "Owner"
FROM pg_class c LEFT JOIN pg_user u ON c.relowner = u.usesysid
WHERE c.relkind IN ('v','')
AND c.relname !~ '^pg_'
ORDER BY 1;
when
SELECT c.relname as "Name", 'view' as "Owner"
FROM pg_class c LEFT JOIN pg_user u ON c.relowner = u.usesysid
WHERE c.relkind IN ('v','')
AND c.relname !~ '^pg_'
ORDER BY 1;
does the same thing
Is there a reason for this? Was it a cut'n'paste frenzy? not that there
is anything wrong with that - whatever gets it done.
Cheers,
Neil
