Thread: Second question on schemas and INDEX(es) ...

Second question on schemas and INDEX(es) ...

From
"Marc G. Fournier"
Date:
Okay, after feeling stupid about the last one (altho I hadn't thought to
read the CREATE INDEX page, only the CREATE SCHEMA one), I really hate to
ask this one ... but ... is this documented somewhere also:

CREATE SCHEMA company_00244 CREATE TABLE traffic ( ip_id int4, port int4, bytes bigint, runtime timestamp ) CREATE
INDEXtraffic_dist ON traffic USING BTREE ( ip_id, port ) CREATE INDEX traffic_time ON traffic USING btree (
hour_trunc(runtime));

ERROR:  parser: parse error at or near "INDEX" at character 122

or, is there an obvious error that I'm just not seeing?

The CREATE SCHEMA page shows CREATE TABLE and CREATE VIEW, so should I
consider CREATE INDEX no supported since it wasn't part of the example?

If I'm right your having a heck of a bad day, but I believe the problem
is you have no ; after each of your sql statements...

CREATE INDEX isn't currently a "schema_element" I believe.

From CREATE SCHEMA:
"An SQL statement defining an object to be created within the schema.
Currently, only CREATE TABLE, CREATE VIEW, and GRANT are accepted as
clauses within CREATE SCHEMA. Other kinds of objects may be created in
separate commands after the schema is created."

Again the manual is your friend ... create schema says:

/schema_element/
   An SQL statement defining an object to be created within the schema.   Currently, only CREATE TABLE, CREATE VIEW,
andGRANT are accepted as   clauses within CREATE SCHEMA. Other kinds of objects may be created   in separate commands
afterthe schema is created

Not that bad I guess ;-)  I missed what you were trying to do, but
Stephen's email is on target.  Note you can do in multiple statements
though...
