Example Database Script

From

Hi,

Does anyone have a snippet of postgres SQL that will create a database with
_everything_ that postgres supports?  (ie. types, functions, constraints,
operators, everything...)

I just need it for testing SQL dump code.

If not, then I'll create one myself and post it back here.

Thanks,

Chris

I tend to use my own databases (because the have lots of data), and the
regression database (because it has a lot of PG things). When you find
something missing from the regression DB, you might consider adding it...

Also, bear in mind that pg_dump does not work properly with the regression
DB - something about column order in the CREATE TABLE vs. COPY statements,
but there is only the one error.

The real test is to run the regression test, dump the database, reload
it into another db, do a dump of that db, and compare the original
regression dump with that one.
