Hi
I found so a set "psql" and "xargs" is pretty strong. But I miss a psql
option for simple returning current database and continuing in pipeline.
What I am doing:
psql postgres -At -c "select datname from pg_database" |
xargs -P 3 -I % psql % -At -c "select current_databe() from
pg_stat_all_tables
where relname = 'pg_attribute' and n_dead_tup > 100000" |
xargs -P 3 -I % sh -c "psql % -q -c 'analyze pg_attribute'; echo %" |
xargs -P 3 -I % psql % -At -c "select curren_database() from ..."
it works perfectly - but the line
xargs -P 3 -I % sh -c "psql % -q -c 'analyze pg_attribute'; echo %"
is little bit ugly - with some psql option it can be cleaned to
xargs -P3 -I % psql % -q --echo-db -c "analyze pg_attribute" | ...
--echo-db requires -q option
What are you thinking about this idea?
Seems like a one-tricky-pony to me. You're just as likely to need to
print a relation name or something else, as the current database.
I don't actually understandu what you'd put in the "..." above. One
you've analyze'd the table, what more do you want to do?
Overall, once your pipeline gets that complicated, I'd rather write a
little bash or perl script with for-loops and variables.
Yes, the use case for this is way too narrow.
cheers
