我喜欢Daniel Vérité的回答。 但是当你不能使用CREATE语句时，你可以使用bash解决方案，如果你是windows用户，可以使用powershell解决方案:

# You don't need this if you have pgpass.conf
$env:PGPASSWORD = "userpass"

# Get table list
$tables = & 'C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.4\bin\psql.exe' -U user -w -d dbname -At -c "select table_name from information_schema.tables where table_type='BASE TABLE' AND table_schema='schema1'"

foreach ($table in $tables) {
    & 'C:\path_to_postresql\bin\psql.exe' -U root -w -d dbname -At -c "select '$table', count(*) from $table"
}

简单的两步:(注意:不需要改变任何东西-只是复制粘贴) 1. 创建函数

create function 
cnt_rows(schema text, tablename text) returns integer
as
$body$
declare
  result integer;
  query varchar;
begin
  query := 'SELECT count(1) FROM ' || schema || '.' || tablename;
  execute query into result;
  return result;
end;
$body$
language plpgsql;

2. 运行此查询获取所有表的行数

select sum(cnt_rows) as total_no_of_rows from (select 
  cnt_rows(table_schema, table_name)
from information_schema.tables
where 
  table_schema not in ('pg_catalog', 'information_schema') 
  and table_type='BASE TABLE') as subq;

或 按表获取行数

select
  table_schema,
  table_name, 
  cnt_rows(table_schema, table_name)
from information_schema.tables
where 
  table_schema not in ('pg_catalog', 'information_schema') 
  and table_type='BASE TABLE'
order by 3 desc;

这里有一个更简单的方法。

tables="$(echo '\dt' | psql -U "${PGUSER}" | tail -n +4 | head -n-2 | tr -d ' ' | cut -d '|' -f2)"
for table in $tables; do
printf "%s: %s\n" "$table" "$(echo "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $table;" | psql -U "${PGUSER}" | tail -n +3 | head -n-2 | tr -d ' ')"
done

输出应该如下所示

auth_group: 0
auth_group_permissions: 0
auth_permission: 36
auth_user: 2
auth_user_groups: 0
auth_user_user_permissions: 0
authtoken_token: 2
django_admin_log: 0
django_content_type: 9
django_migrations: 22
django_session: 0
mydata_table1: 9011
mydata_table2: 3499

你可以根据需要更新psql -U "${PGUSER}"部分来访问你的数据库

注意，head -n-2语法可能在macOS中不起作用，你可以使用不同的实现

在CentOS 7下的psql (PostgreSQL) 11.2上测试

如果你想按表排序，那就用sort来包装它

for table in $tables; do
printf "%s: %s\n" "$table" "$(echo "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $table;" | psql -U "${PGUSER}" | tail -n +3 | head -n-2 | tr -d ' ')"
done | sort -k 2,2nr

输出;

mydata_table1: 9011
mydata_table2: 3499
auth_permission: 36
django_migrations: 22
django_content_type: 9
authtoken_token: 2
auth_user: 2
auth_group: 0
auth_group_permissions: 0
auth_user_groups: 0
auth_user_user_permissions: 0
django_admin_log: 0
django_session: 0

有三种方法可以得到这种计数，每种方法都有各自的权衡。

If you want a true count, you have to execute the SELECT statement like the one you used against each table. This is because PostgreSQL keeps row visibility information in the row itself, not anywhere else, so any accurate count can only be relative to some transaction. You're getting a count of what that transaction sees at the point in time when it executes. You could automate this to run against every table in the database, but you probably don't need that level of accuracy or want to wait that long.

WITH tbl AS
  (SELECT table_schema,
          TABLE_NAME
   FROM information_schema.tables
   WHERE TABLE_NAME not like 'pg_%'
     AND table_schema in ('public'))
SELECT table_schema,
       TABLE_NAME,
       (xpath('/row/c/text()', query_to_xml(format('select count(*) as c from %I.%I', table_schema, TABLE_NAME), FALSE, TRUE, '')))[1]::text::int AS rows_n
FROM tbl
ORDER BY rows_n DESC;

第二种方法指出，统计信息收集器在任何时候大致跟踪有多少行是“活动的”(没有被后来的更新删除或废弃)。这个值在剧烈活动时可能会偏离一点，但通常是一个很好的估计:

SELECT schemaname,relname,n_live_tup 
  FROM pg_stat_user_tables 
ORDER BY n_live_tup DESC;

这还可以显示有多少行已死，这本身就是一个值得监视的有趣数字。

第三种方法是注意到系统ANALYZE命令，从PostgreSQL 8.3开始由autovacuum进程定期执行以更新表统计信息，它也计算行估计。你可以像这样抓取它:

SELECT 
  nspname AS schemaname,relname,reltuples
FROM pg_class C
LEFT JOIN pg_namespace N ON (N.oid = C.relnamespace)
WHERE 
  nspname NOT IN ('pg_catalog', 'information_schema') AND
  relkind='r' 
ORDER BY reltuples DESC;

很难说使用这些查询中哪一个更好。通常，我根据是否有更多有用的信息也想在pg_class中使用，还是在pg_stat_user_tables中使用来做出决定。出于基本的计数目的，只是为了了解事物的总体大小，这两种方法都应该足够准确。

如果您不介意可能过时的数据，您可以访问查询优化器使用的相同统计信息。

喜欢的东西:

SELECT relname, n_tup_ins - n_tup_del as rowcount FROM pg_stat_all_tables;

我做了一个小的变化，包括所有的表，也是非公共的表。

CREATE TYPE table_count AS (table_schema TEXT,table_name TEXT, num_rows INTEGER); 

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION count_em_all () RETURNS SETOF table_count  AS '
DECLARE 
    the_count RECORD; 
    t_name RECORD; 
    r table_count%ROWTYPE; 

BEGIN
    FOR t_name IN 
        SELECT table_schema,table_name
        FROM information_schema.tables
        where table_schema !=''pg_catalog''
          and table_schema !=''information_schema''
        ORDER BY 1,2
        LOOP
            FOR the_count IN EXECUTE ''SELECT COUNT(*) AS "count" FROM '' || t_name.table_schema||''.''||t_name.table_name
            LOOP 
            END LOOP; 

            r.table_schema := t_name.table_schema;
            r.table_name := t_name.table_name; 
            r.num_rows := the_count.count; 
            RETURN NEXT r; 
        END LOOP; 
        RETURN; 
END;
' LANGUAGE plpgsql; 

使用select count_em_all();叫它。

希望这对你有用。 保罗
