1A getter does not return a valueFind user-defined SQL and PL/pgSQL routines that do not return a value although the name suggest that it should return a value (starts with "get").Problem detectionINFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables2023-01-06 14:24MIT License
2A setter does not update a tableFind user-defined non-trigger SQL and PL/pgSQL routines that name starts with "set" (but not with "setting") but do not contain a UPDATE statement.Problem detectionINFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables2022-11-27 18:35MIT License
3A table has the same name as a routineFind table names that are the same as some routine name. Use different names to avoid confusion.Problem detectionINFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables2021-02-25 17:30MIT License
4Base table column name is the same as its domain nameFind base table columns that have the same name as the domain name or the data type name of the column. The names may have different uppercase/lowercase characters. Columns, domains, and types are different concepts in SQL and perhaps it is better to use different names in case of these.Problem detectionINFORMATION_SCHEMA only2021-02-25 17:29MIT License
5Base table columns with the same name have different typesFind base table columns that have the same name but different type. In general, base tables columns that have the same name should have the same type as well.Problem detectionINFORMATION_SCHEMA only2023-01-14 20:54MIT License

15Column name is the same as the table nameFind columns that have the same name as the table. The names may have different uppercase/lowercase characters.

16Column names that make joining more difficult (foreign key column name contains the table name)Find foreign keys where the name of the foreign key column and the corresponding primary key/unique column is different but the difference comes from the fact that the foreign key column name starts or ends with the table name. Simplify writing queries that have to join data from multiple base tables. If the columns that participate in the join condition have the same name, then one can use the USING syntax.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2023-11-12 10:26MIT License
17Column names that make joining tables more difficultFind foreign keys where the name of the foreign key column and the corresponding primary key/unique column is different. Exclude foreign key columns that refer to the key of the same table because within each named table column names must be different. Simplify writing queries that have to join data from multiple base tables. If the columns that participate in the join condition have the same name, then one can use the USING syntax.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2023-11-08 13:56MIT License
18Column names that make joining tables more difficult (quite similar names)Find foreign keys where the name of the foreign key column and the corresponding primary key/unique column is different and the difference is between two and four characters. Exclude foreign key columns that refer to the key of the same table because within each named table column names must be different. Simplify writing queries that have to join data from multiple base tables. If the columns that participate in the join condition have the same name, then one can use the USING syntax.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2023-11-08 13:56MIT License
19Column names that make joining tables more difficult (very similar names)Find foreign keys where the name of the foreign key column and the corresponding primary key/unique column is different and the difference is one character. Exclude foreign key columns that refer to the key of the same table because within each named table column names must be different. Simplify writing queries that have to join data from multiple base tables.
