我自己的贡献。目标是备份所有外键的定义:

SELECT
    'ALTER TABLE ' || tc.table_schema || '.' || tc.table_name || E'\n
    ADD FOREIGN KEY (' || kcu.column_name || ')' || E'\n
    REFERENCES ' || ccu.table_schema || '.' || ccu.table_name ||
    ' (' || ccu.column_name || ') ' || E'\n    ' ||
    CASE WHEN rc.match_option <> 'NONE' THEN E'\n
    MATCH ' || rc.match_option ELSE '' END ||
    CASE WHEN rc.update_rule <> 'NO ACTION' THEN E'\n
    ON UPDATE ' || rc.update_rule || ' ' ELSE '' END ||
    CASE WHEN rc.delete_rule <> 'NO ACTION'
    THEN 'ON DELETE ' || rc.delete_rule ELSE '' END || ';'
AS add_constraint

    information_schema.table_constraints AS tc

SELECT
  o.conname AS constraint_name,
  (SELECT nspname FROM pg_namespace WHERE oid=m.relnamespace) AS source_schema,
  m.relname AS source_table,
  (SELECT a.attname FROM pg_attribute a WHERE a.attrelid = m.oid AND a.attnum = o.conkey[1] AND a.attisdropped = false) AS source_column,
  (SELECT nspname FROM pg_namespace WHERE oid=f.relnamespace) AS target_schema,
  f.relname AS target_table,
  (SELECT a.attname FROM pg_attribute a WHERE a.attrelid = f.oid AND a.attnum = o.confkey[1] AND a.attisdropped = false) AS target_column
FROM
  pg_constraint o LEFT JOIN pg_class f ON f.oid = o.confrelid LEFT JOIN pg_class m ON m.oid = o.conrelid
WHERE
  o.contype = 'f' AND o.conrelid IN (SELECT oid FROM pg_class c WHERE c.relkind = 'r');

我写了一个解决方案，喜欢和经常使用。代码在http://code.google.com/p/pgutils/。看这些小疙瘩。foreign_keys视图。

不幸的是，输出太冗长，这里不包括。但是，你可以在数据库的公共版本上尝试一下，就像这样:

$ psql -h unison-db.org -U PUBLIC -d unison -c 'select * from pgutils.foreign_keys;

这至少适用于8.3版本。如果需要的话，我预计会在未来几个月内对其进行更新。

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

从最流行的答案改进查询

因为对于postgresql 12+ information_schema是非常慢的

它帮助了我:

SELECT sh.nspname AS table_schema,
  tbl.relname AS table_name,
  col.attname AS column_name,
  referenced_sh.nspname AS foreign_table_schema,
  referenced_tbl.relname AS foreign_table_name,
  referenced_field.attname AS foreign_column_name
FROM pg_constraint c
    INNER JOIN pg_namespace AS sh ON sh.oid = c.connamespace
    INNER JOIN (SELECT oid, unnest(conkey) as conkey FROM pg_constraint) con ON c.oid = con.oid
    INNER JOIN pg_class tbl ON tbl.oid = c.conrelid
    INNER JOIN pg_attribute col ON (col.attrelid = tbl.oid AND col.attnum = con.conkey)
    INNER JOIN pg_class referenced_tbl ON c.confrelid = referenced_tbl.oid
    INNER JOIN pg_namespace AS referenced_sh ON referenced_sh.oid = referenced_tbl.relnamespace
    INNER JOIN (SELECT oid, unnest(confkey) as confkey FROM pg_constraint) conf ON c.oid = conf.oid
    INNER JOIN pg_attribute referenced_field ON (referenced_field.attrelid = c.confrelid AND referenced_field.attnum = conf.confkey)
WHERE c.contype = 'f'

$1 ('my_schema')是模式，$2 ('my_table')是表名:

SELECT ss.conname constraint_name, a.attname column_name, ss.refnamespace fk_table_schema, ss.reflname fk_table_name, af.attname fk_column_name
    FROM  pg_attribute a, pg_attribute af,
        (SELECT r.oid roid, c.conname, rf.relname reflname, information_schema._pg_expandarray(c.conkey) x,
                nrf.nspname refnamespace, rf.oid rfoid, information_schema._pg_expandarray(cf.confkey) xf
            FROM pg_namespace nr, pg_class r, pg_constraint c,
                pg_namespace nrf, pg_class rf, pg_constraint cf
            WHERE nr.oid = r.relnamespace
                AND r.oid = c.conrelid

                AND nr.nspname = $1
                AND r.relname = $2) ss
    WHERE ss.roid = a.attrelid AND a.attnum = (ss.x).x AND NOT a.attisdropped
        AND ss.rfoid = af.attrelid AND af.attnum = (ss.xf).x AND NOT af.attisdropped
    ORDER BY ss.conname, a.attname;
