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

这对我很有效

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

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;

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。

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

下面是一个解决方案，它不需要函数来获得每个表的精确计数:

select table_schema, 
       table_name, 
       (xpath('/row/cnt/text()', xml_count))[1]::text::int as row_count
from (
  select table_name, table_schema, 
         query_to_xml(format('select count(*) as cnt from %I.%I', table_schema, table_name), false, true, '') as xml_count
  from information_schema.tables
  where table_schema = 'public' --<< change here for the schema you want
) t

query_to_xml将运行传递的SQL查询并返回带有结果的XML(该表的行数)。外层xpath()将从该xml中提取计数信息并将其转换为数字

实际上并不需要派生表，但可以使xpath()更容易理解——否则整个query_to_xml()将需要传递给xpath()函数。
