在PostgreSQL提示符上发出\d+ tablename，除了显示表列的数据类型外，它还会显示索引和外键。

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

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

您可以通过information_schema表来实现这一点。例如:

SELECT
    tc.table_schema, 
    tc.constraint_name, 
    tc.table_name, 
    kcu.column_name, 
    ccu.table_schema AS foreign_table_schema,
    ccu.table_name AS foreign_table_name,
    ccu.column_name AS foreign_column_name 
FROM 
    information_schema.table_constraints AS tc 
    JOIN information_schema.key_column_usage AS kcu
      ON tc.constraint_name = kcu.constraint_name
      AND tc.table_schema = kcu.table_schema
    JOIN information_schema.constraint_column_usage AS ccu
      ON ccu.constraint_name = tc.constraint_name
      AND ccu.table_schema = tc.table_schema
WHERE tc.constraint_type = 'FOREIGN KEY' AND tc.table_name='mytable';

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
