PostgreSQL Query Catalog

Project on GitHub
Filter Queries

Found 6 queries.

  • All the queries about database objects contain a subcondition to exclude from the result information about the system catalog.
  • Although the statements use SQL constructs (common table expressions; NOT in subqueries) that could cause performance problems in case of large datasets it shouldn't be a problem in case of relatively small amount of data, which is in the system catalog of a database.
  • Statistics about the catalog content and project home in GitHub that has additional information.

1 Do not create user-defined routines that have the same name as some installed extension routine Avoid creating user-defined routines that have the same name as some extension routine because it may cause confusion.

2 Input parameters with the same name have different types Find named input parameters of routines that have the same name but different type. It could be a mistake or deliberate due to overloading of routines. Problem detection INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables 2024-01-24 15:01 MIT License View
3 Overloading Make sure that there is genuine overloading instead of duplication or dead code. "In some programming languages, function overloading or method overloading is the ability to create multiple functions of the same name with different implementations." (Wikipedia) In PostgreSQL one can do it automagically by having multiple routines with the same name but different parameters in the same schema.

4 Overloading may cause runtime error Routines in the same schema that have the same name and that have parameters with different types or different number of parameters are not considered to be in conflict at the creation time. However, if defaults are provided in the definition of parameters, then these routines might be conflict during runtime.

5 User-defined routines that have the same name as some system-defined routine.
