如果你想要一个ANSI SQL-92版本:

select view_definition from information_schema.views where table_name = 'view_name';

来自9.6及以上版本的好消息。视图编辑现在是原生的psql。只需调用\ev命令。视图定义将显示在您配置的编辑器中。

julian@assange=# \ev your_view_names

奖金。一些与查询缓冲区交互的有用命令。

Query Buffer
  \e [FILE] [LINE]       edit the query buffer (or file) with external editor
  \ef [FUNCNAME [LINE]]  edit function definition with external editor
  \ev [VIEWNAME [LINE]]  edit view definition with external editor
  \p                     show the contents of the query buffer
  \r                     reset (clear) the query buffer
  \s [FILE]              display history or save it to file
  \w FILE                write query buffer to file

如果你想要一个ANSI SQL-92版本:

select view_definition from information_schema.views where table_name = 'view_name';

在psql cli中，可以使用

\d+ <yourViewName>
\sv <yourViewName>

输出如下:

\d+ v_ma_students

                               View "public.v_ma_students"

View definition:
 SELECT student.sno,
    student.sname,
    student.ssex,
    student.sage,
    student.sdept
   FROM student
  WHERE student.sdept::text = 'MA'::text;
Options: check_option=cascaded


\sv v_ma_students

CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW public.v_ma_students AS
 SELECT student.sno,
    student.sname,
    student.ssex,
    student.sage,
    student.sdept
   FROM student
  WHERE student.sdept::text = 'MA'::text
 WITH CASCADED CHECK OPTION

select definition from pg_views where viewname = 'my_view'

找到'CREATE TABLE…的查询是使用这个查询-

SHOW TABLE your_schema_name.your_table_name
