 \dschema

I would have done that, but it doesn't fit nicely beside the behavior
of the \d[istvS] family.  Maybe we should retire that thing?

We should have one, but the only solution now is:

test= select * from pg_namespace;

Also, on TODO I see:

* Add schema, cast, and conversion backslash commands to psql

so we know we need them.

I was going to add one for schemas, but \ds and \dS are already taken,
and there was no good proposal for what to use instead.  Any thoughts?

Re: [ADMIN] list schema

2002-12-05 Thread Jean-Luc Lachance
How about \D for Domains...

BTW, because many people ask how to do the equivalant in SQL of a \
command,
why not be done with the \ commands which are criptic anyway and instead
create global stored procedures like:

sp_list_databases()
sp_list_schemas()
sp_list_{whatever}()
sp_enable_{this}()
sp_disable_{that}()

I believe \dn is better.

I guess we have to go with the second letter, c, or use n for
namespaces.

\dschema

Pretty soon we'll have too many things for 'c' as well, so maybe we should
go with full words.

I think this sounds like a good idea. as they would be much easier to 
remember if its a full word. You can always leave the 1 leave the 1 letter 
abbrevations in anyway and have both!

I also notice that on the todo list is a job to turn all these into views. It 
might be worth doing that (should not be too difficult I think) plus they 
could then be used from other client programs. 

Strictly I think this meta information should have its own access methods in 
the sql standard because currently sql is a broken standard with out this 
meta infomation.
