The attached patch implements the behavior we've discussed.

If we use "IF NOT EXISTS" with schema elements then occurs an error like
this:


[local]:5432 fabrizio@fabrizio=# CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS test_schema_1
   CREATE TABLE abc (
  a serial,
  b int UNIQUE
   );
ERROR:  IF NOT EXISTS cannot be used with schema elements

Re: [HACKERS] CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS

2012-10-02 Thread Stirling Newberry 
This case points to a weakness in many programming languages, not having a 
clear ifof (if and only if) versus if construction. 

The sane use case for create schema foo if not exists  is for building 
a database dynamically, where several points may be the first to put a table in 
a schema, and schemas should not be created if there are no objects. The 
create/search/drop design pattern having its own problems.

Thus the construction should default to one behavior, and have an option for 
the second.

e.g.

create schema foo if not exists (will not be done if foo existed)
create schema foo if not exists FORCE (will be done even if foo existed)

This would even allow for mixed e.g. 

create schema foo if not exists (tables that should be created once and not 
again)
FORCE (objects routine will add if the schema does)

As far as I can see, with the patch as it currently stands, you would
end up with only table "first" in the schema, which seems very
surprising to me.

Yeah, I think the second should die. CINE should only work if there are no 
other objects created as part of the statement, IMHO.

Well, if that's the rationale then you end up with no schema foo at all

Yes, exactly -- what about this case?  This is precisely the reason we
don't have CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS.

I don't know what the best answer is.  Most people seem to think that
the answer ought to be that you end up with a single column second.a,
and the second command errors out.

So if you do this:

create schema if not exists foo create table first (a int);
create schema if not exists foo create table first (b int),
create table second (a int);

you end up with *only* the first table, because the second command
errors out when the first table is observed to exist.

Now, what if you were to do this instead:

create schema if not exists foo
   create table if not exists first (a int);
create schema if not exists foo
   create table if not exists first (b int),
   create table if not exists second (a int);

The you end up with first.a and second.a.

Well, if that's the rationale then you end up with no schema foo at all
(i.e. both die), which seems even more surprising (though I admit it has
the advantage of being a simple rule to document.)

How about call this for precedent:

mkdir -p /tmp/foo/bar
mkdir -p /tmp/foo/baz

In this case you end up with directory "foo" and at least two subdirs in
it, bar and baz.  This works even if /tmp/foo existed previously and
even if there was some other stuff in it.

I don't see that this patch is responsible for such new commands.  If
you want them, feel free to submit separate patches for them (or have

Re: [HACKERS] CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS

2012-10-02 Thread Alvaro Herrera 

The fundamental issue with this patch hasn't been answered sufficiently,
I think.  Consider the following sequence of commands:

create schema if not exists foo create table first (a int);
create schema if not exists foo create table second (a int);


As far as I can see, with the patch as it currently stands, you would
end up with only table "first" in the schema, which seems very
surprising to me.

I think this needs more thought, and in any case it needs more
comprehensive regression test and documentation (i.e. at least the
examples ought to explain what would happen in such cases).

If there's still a chance to improve the patch, I'd love to see
the following INEs implemented. Several real-world database
upgrade scripts would benefit from those:

1)
CREATE [ TEMPORARY | TEMP ] SEQUENCE [ IF NOT EXISTS ] name ...

2)
ALTER TABLE ... ADD [ COLUMN ] [ IF NOT EXISTS ] column_name ...

3)
CREATE [ UNIQUE ] INDEX [ CONCURRENTLY ] [ IF NOT EXISTS ] [ name ] ON ...

I completely forgot this functionality. The example above is from our docs
[1]:

CREATE SCHEMA hollywood
CREATE TABLE films (title text, release date, awards text[])
CREATE VIEW winners AS
SELECT title, release FROM films WHERE awards IS NOT NULL;

The "CREATE SCHEMA" statement accepts another "CREATE" commands (CREATE
{TABLE | VIEW | INDEX | SEQUENCE | TRIGGER}), and the current patch do not
consider this options.

Why don't create sub-objects? I think the INE clause must affect only
"CREATE SCHEMA" statement, the others must be executed normally. We can
discuss more about it...

I don't believe this has been thought through nearly carefully enough.
If CREATE SCHEMA created a schema and nothing more, then the proposed
implementation would probably be fine.  But per spec, CREATE SCHEMA
can specify not only creating the schema but a whole bunch of objects
within the schema.  As coded, if the schema exists then creation of
the specified sub-objects is just skipped, regardless of whether they
exist or not.  I doubt that this is really sane behavior.  Would the
principle of least astonishment dictate that the IF NOT EXISTS option
apply implicitly to each sub-object as well?  (If so, we'd have to
extend everything that can appear in OptSchemaEltList; most of those
commands don't have IF NOT EXISTS options today.)

This is somewhat connected to our previous arguments about whether CINE
ought to try to make any guarantees about whether the existing object is
at all like the object that would have been created if the statement
executed successfully.  I realize that the existing statements that have
an INE option have entirely blown off this concern, but I still think
that it's a question that ought to be considered, particularly for
objects that have separately creatable sub-structure.

A possible compromise is to allow the IF NOT EXISTS option only without
a schema-element list, which I suspect is the only use-case David had in
mind to start with anyway.

The existing patch added the check in a pretty randomly chosen spot too,
with one bad consequence being that if the schema already exists then it
will fall out with the wrong user ID in effect, creating a security bug.
But I'm not entirely sure where to put the check instead.  Should we put
it before or after the permissions checks --- that is, should IF NOT
EXISTS require that you would have had permission to create the schema?
Or, if the schema does exist, should we just call it good anyway?  I'm
too lazy to look at how other INE options resolved this question, but it
seems like we ought to be consistent.

Also, the AUTHORIZATION clause of CREATE SCHEMA creates an aspect of all
this that doesn't exist for any other kind of CREATE command, namely
that the object might have been requested to be created under some other
user id.  For instance, supposing that we were to go forward with trying
to create sub-objects, but the ownership of the existing schema is
different from what's implied or specified by CREATE SCHEMA, should the
sub-objects be (attempted to be) created as owned by that user instead?
Perhaps not, but I'm not at all sure.

I had no idea about that functionality. Seems very strange.

Yes, true.

Agreed. But if it already exists, where does it currently die? ISTM that would 
be the point to check, if possible.

I tend to think that if the schema exists, there should be no attempt to create 
the sub-objects. Seems the least astonishing to me.

Yes, agreed. Other implementations should be in their own distinct
patches. BTW, it could be interesting search the archive for past
discussions about CINE.

I changed the status of this patch to "Ready for Committer".

I don't think any of them have to be a part of *this* patch. There can be 
patches for each of them. Probably simpler that way.

But then, I am not like to code them, so WTF do I know? :-)

If this feature is important I believe we must implement it.

Exists several "CREATE" statements without "IF NOT EXISTS" option too, so
we can discuss more about it and I can implement it in this patch or in
another.

Re: [HACKERS] CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS

2012-08-27 Thread Dickson S. Guedes 
Hello,

I reviewed this v5 of patch:

- https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/patch_view?id=907

The patch is small and implements a new syntax to CREATE SCHEMA
that allow the creation of a schema be skipped when IF NOT EXISTS is
used.

It was applied to 483c2c1071c45e275782d33d646c3018f02f9f94 with
two hunks offset, was compiled without errors or new warnings and
pass all tests, even the tests that covers the expected results for it
self.

The docs was updated with the information about the expected behavior.

I tested against ambiguity, i. e. creating a schema with name 'if' and got the
expected results when try to create it if not exists.

Two questions:

- Should this patch implements others INEs like ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS?
- Should pg_dump or pg_restore support some kind of flag to use a
  CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS ... instead CREATE SCHEMA ...?

The attached patch implement this feature:

CREATE SCHEMA [ IF NOT EXISTS ] schema_name [ AUTHORIZATION user_name 
] [ schema_element [ ... ] ]
CREATE SCHEMA [ IF NOT EXISTS ] AUTHORIZATION user_name [ 
schema_element [ ... ] ]


Now, PostgreSQL don't trow an error if we use "IF NOT EXISTS" in

So, I don't know the next steps...
