是否有一种方法使用SQL列出给定表的所有外键?我知道表名/模式,我可以把它插入。


当前回答

使用Key所引用的主键的名称并查询information_schema:

select table_name, column_name
from information_schema.key_column_usage
where constraint_name IN (select constraint_name
  from information_schema.referential_constraints 
  where unique_constraint_name = 'TABLE_NAME_pkey')

这里'TABLE_NAME_pkey'是外键引用的主键的名称。

选择的答案不为我工作,所以张贴我的sql工作。

select 
    con.conname as constraint_name,
    src_schema.nspname as source_schema,
    source.relname as source_table,
    source_col.attname as source_column,
    trg_schema.nspname as target_schema,
    target.relname as target_table,
    target_col.attname as target_column
from 
    pg_constraint con
inner join 
    pg_class source on source.oid = con.conrelid
inner join
    pg_attribute source_col on source_col.attrelid = con.conrelid and source_col.attnum = con.conkey[1] and source_col.attisdropped = false
inner join
    pg_namespace src_schema on src_schema.oid = source.relnamespace
inner join 
    pg_class target on target.oid = con.confrelid
inner join
    pg_attribute target_col on target_col.attrelid = con.confrelid and target_col.attnum = con.confkey[1] and source_col.attisdropped = false    
inner join
    pg_namespace trg_schema on trg_schema.oid = target.relnamespace 

Ollyc的答案很好,因为它不是特定于postgres的,但是,当外键引用多个列时,它就会崩溃。以下查询适用于任意数量的列,但它严重依赖于Postgres扩展:

select 
    att2.attname as "child_column", 
    cl.relname as "parent_table", 
    att.attname as "parent_column",
    conname
from
   (select 
        unnest(con1.conkey) as "parent", 
        unnest(con1.confkey) as "child", 
        con1.confrelid, 
        con1.conrelid,
        con1.conname
    from 
        pg_class cl
        join pg_namespace ns on cl.relnamespace = ns.oid
        join pg_constraint con1 on con1.conrelid = cl.oid
    where
        cl.relname = 'child_table'
        and ns.nspname = 'child_schema'
        and con1.contype = 'f'
   ) con
   join pg_attribute att on
       att.attrelid = con.confrelid and att.attnum = con.child
   join pg_class cl on
       cl.oid = con.confrelid
   join pg_attribute att2 on
       att2.attrelid = con.conrelid and att2.attnum = con.parent

现有的答案都没有给出我想要的结果。这是我的(庞大的)查询,用于查找有关外键的信息。

注意事项:

The expressions used to generate from_cols and to_cols could be vastly simplified on Postgres 9.4 and later using WITH ORDINALITY rather than the window-function-using hackery I'm using. Those same expressions are relying on the query planner not altering the returned order of results from UNNEST. I don't think it will, but I don't have any multiple-column foreign keys in my dataset to test with. Adding the 9.4 niceties eliminates this possibility altogether. The query itself requires Postgres 9.0 or later (8.x didn't allow ORDER BY in aggregate functions) Replace STRING_AGG with ARRAY_AGG if you want an array of columns rather than a comma-separated string.

    pg_catalog.pg_constraint AS c
    INNER JOIN (
        SELECT pg_class.oid, QUOTE_IDENT(pg_namespace.nspname) || '.' || QUOTE_IDENT(pg_class.relname) AS name
        FROM pg_class INNER JOIN pg_namespace ON pg_class.relnamespace=pg_namespace.oid
    ) AS tf ON tf.oid=c.conrelid

WHERE c.contype = 'f' ORDER BY 1;

你可以使用PostgreSQL系统目录。也许您可以查询pg_constraint来请求外键。 您还可以使用信息模式

这个查询也适用于组合键:

select c.constraint_name
    , x.table_schema as schema_name
    , x.table_name
    , x.column_name
    , y.table_schema as foreign_schema_name
    , y.table_name as foreign_table_name
    , y.column_name as foreign_column_name
from information_schema.referential_constraints c
join information_schema.key_column_usage x
    on x.constraint_name = c.constraint_name
join information_schema.key_column_usage y
    on y.ordinal_position = x.position_in_unique_constraint
    and y.constraint_name = c.unique_constraint_name
order by c.constraint_name, x.ordinal_position
