我想在PostgreSQL中获得索引上的列。

在MySQL中,您可以使用SHOW INDEXES FOR表并查看Column_name列。

mysql> show indexes from foos;

+-------+------------+---------------------+--------------+-------------+-----------+-------------+----------+--------+------+------------+---------+
| Table | Non_unique | Key_name            | Seq_in_index | Column_name | Collation | Cardinality | Sub_part | Packed | Null | Index_type | Comment |
+-------+------------+---------------------+--------------+-------------+-----------+-------------+----------+--------+------+------------+---------+
| foos  |          0 | PRIMARY             |            1 | id          | A         |       19710 |     NULL | NULL   |      | BTREE      |         | 
| foos  |          0 | index_foos_on_email |            1 | email       | A         |       19710 |     NULL | NULL   | YES  | BTREE      |         | 
| foos  |          1 | index_foos_on_name  |            1 | name        | A         |       19710 |     NULL | NULL   |      | BTREE      |         | 
+-------+------------+---------------------+--------------+-------------+-----------+-------------+----------+--------+------+------------+---------+

PostgreSQL中存在类似的东西吗?

我已经在psql命令提示符中尝试了\d(使用-E选项来显示SQL),但它没有显示我正在寻找的信息。

更新:感谢大家的回答。cope360提供了我想要的东西,但也有一些人提供了非常有用的链接。为了将来的参考,请查看pg_index的文档(通过Milen A. Radev)和非常有用的文章从PostgreSQL提取META信息(通过micharov Niklas)。


当前回答

\d tablename显示了8.3.8版本中的列名。

 "username_idx" UNIQUE, btree (username), tablespace "alldata1"

其他回答

类似于接受的答案,但有左连接pg_attribute作为正常连接或查询pg_attribute不给出索引,如: 为用户创建唯一索引unique_user_name_index (lower(name))

select 
    row_number() over (order by c.relname),
    c.relname as index, 
    t.relname as table, 
    array_to_string(array_agg(a.attname), ', ') as column_names 
from pg_class c
join pg_index i on c.oid = i.indexrelid and c.relkind='i' and c.relname not like 'pg_%' 
join pg_class t on t.oid = i.indrelid
left join pg_attribute a on a.attrelid = t.oid and a.attnum = ANY(i.indkey) 
group by t.relname, c.relname order by c.relname;

原始信息在pg_index中。

\d table_name显示了来自psql的这些信息,但是如果你想使用SQL从数据库中获取这些信息,那么可以看看从PostgreSQL中提取META信息。

我在我的实用程序中使用这些信息来报告来自db schema的一些信息,以比较测试和生产环境中的PostgreSQL数据库。

创建一些测试数据…

create table test (a int, b int, c int, constraint pk_test primary key(a, b));
create table test2 (a int, b int, c int, constraint uk_test2 unique (b, c));
create table test3 (a int, b int, c int, constraint uk_test3b unique (b), constraint uk_test3c unique (c),constraint uk_test3ab unique (a, b));

列出索引的索引和列:

select
    t.relname as table_name,
    i.relname as index_name,
    a.attname as column_name
from
    pg_class t,
    pg_class i,
    pg_index ix,
    pg_attribute a
where
    t.oid = ix.indrelid
    and i.oid = ix.indexrelid
    and a.attrelid = t.oid
    and a.attnum = ANY(ix.indkey)
    and t.relkind = 'r'
    and t.relname like 'test%'
order by
    t.relname,
    i.relname;

 table_name | index_name | column_name
------------+------------+-------------
 test       | pk_test    | a
 test       | pk_test    | b
 test2      | uk_test2   | b
 test2      | uk_test2   | c
 test3      | uk_test3ab | a
 test3      | uk_test3ab | b
 test3      | uk_test3b  | b
 test3      | uk_test3c  | c

卷起列名:

select
    t.relname as table_name,
    i.relname as index_name,
    array_to_string(array_agg(a.attname), ', ') as column_names
from
    pg_class t,
    pg_class i,
    pg_index ix,
    pg_attribute a
where
    t.oid = ix.indrelid
    and i.oid = ix.indexrelid
    and a.attrelid = t.oid
    and a.attnum = ANY(ix.indkey)
    and t.relkind = 'r'
    and t.relname like 'test%'
group by
    t.relname,
    i.relname
order by
    t.relname,
    i.relname;

 table_name | index_name | column_names
------------+------------+--------------
 test       | pk_test    | a, b
 test2      | uk_test2   | b, c
 test3      | uk_test3ab | a, b
 test3      | uk_test3b  | b
 test3      | uk_test3c  | c

PostgreSQL (pg_indexes):

SELECT * FROM pg_indexes WHERE tablename = 'mytable';

MySQL(显示索引)

SHOW INDEX FROM mytable;
