Found 997 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.

61 Base table column of quantities does not have a numeric type (based on column names) Find base table columns that name refers to the possibility that these are used to register quantities of things. Find the columns that do not have a numeric type. Problem detection INFORMATION_SCHEMA only 2021-02-25 17:29 MIT License View
62 Base table column of sums of money does not have a numeric type (based on column names) Find base table columns that name refers to the possibility that these are used to register prices/sums of money. Find columns that do not have a numeric type. Problem detection INFORMATION_SCHEMA only 2021-03-21 11:45 MIT License View
63 Base table column of sums of money has too big or small scale Find base table columns that name refers to the possibility that these are used to register data about prices/sums of money. Find the columns that have decimal type but have a too big (bigger than six) or a too small scale (zero). The selection of field size must be precise and should take into account the possible data in the column. Problem detection INFORMATION_SCHEMA only 2021-03-21 11:45 MIT License View
64 Base table column of surrogate key values does not have an integer data type (based on column names) Find base table columns that belong to a primary key, unique, or foreign key constraint and that name refers to the possibility that these are used to hold surrogate key values. Find the columns where the data type of the column is not an integer type or uuid. Problem detection INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables 2023-11-13 12:10 MIT License View

66 Base table columns for recording geographic coordinates that do not have a suitable type (based on column names) Find base table columns that are according to the name meant for recording geographic coordinate but do not have a suitable type (numeric or point).

67 Base table columns for storing username, password, and salt Find base table columns that name refers to the possibility that these are used to register usernames, passwords, and salt. Password should not be open text. It should be a hash value that has been hashed by using salt. General INFORMATION_SCHEMA only 2020-11-06 14:51 MIT License View
68 Base table columns permitting e-mail addresses without @ sign Find non-foreign key base table columns that name refers to the possibility that these are used to register e-mail addresses. Find the columns that do not have any simple CHECK constraint that contains @ sign. A simple check constraint covers a single column. In this case registration of e-mail addresses without @ is most probably not prohibited. Problem detection INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables 2021-02-25 17:29 MIT License View
69 Base table columns permitting empty strings and strings that consist of only whitespace characters Find non-foreign key columns of base tables that have a textual type and do not have any simple CHECK constraint, i.e., a constraint that involves only one column. Such columns can contain the empty string and strings that consist of only whitespace. Problem detection INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables 2021-02-25 17:29 MIT License View
70 Base table columns permitting empty strings and strings that consist of only whitespace characters (2) Find non-foreign key columns of base tables that have a textual type and do not have a simple CHECK constraint (i.e., a constraint that involves only one column) that seems to prohibit empty strings and strings that consist of only whitespace as well as a simple CHECK constraint that specifies permitted symbols.

71 Base table columns permitting negative prices/quantity Find non-foreign key base table columns that name refers to the possibility that these are used to register prices/quantities. Find the columns that do not have any simple CHECK constraints, i.e., a constraint that covers only this column. In this case registration of negative price/quantity is most probably not prohibited.

72 Base table columns permitting telephone numbers without digits Find non-foreign key base table columns that name refers to the possibility that these are used to register phone numbers. Find the columns that do not have any simple CHECK constraint that references to the character class of digits. A simple check constraint covers a single column. In this case registration of e-mail addresses without digits is most probably not prohibited. Problem detection INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables 2023-11-09 12:52 MIT License View
73 Base table columns permitting temporal values that may be outside the range of logical values Find base tables columns with temporal types (date and timestamp) that do not belong to a foreign key and that do not have any associated simple CHECK constraints, i.e., constraint that involves only one column. For instance, in the column registration_time that does not have any associated CHECK constraints could be values '1200-01-01 00:00' or '5900-12-31 00:00'. Rows with these values most probably represent wrong propositions and the system should restrict registration of such data.

74 Base table columns permitting URLs without a protocol Find non-foreign key base table columns that name refers to the possibility that these are used to register URLs. Find the columns that do not have any simple CHECK constraint that references to a protocol. A simple check constraint covers a single column. In this case registration of URLs without a protocol is most probably not prohibited. Problem detection INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables 2023-11-01 13:13 MIT License View
75 Base table columns where TOASTing is possible Find all base table columns in case of which the system can use TOAST technique. General system catalog base tables only 2020-11-06 14:51 MIT License View
76 Base table columns where TOAST-ing strategy has been changed Find base table columns in case of which the system can use TOAST technique (due to the data type of the column) and where the toasting strategy has been changed so that it is different than the default strategy determined by the type. Make sure that the new strategy is optimal. General system catalog base tables only 2020-11-06 14:51 MIT License View
77 Base table columns where TOAST-ing strategy has been changed to plain Find base table columns in case of which the system can use TOAST technique (due to the data type of the column) and where the toasting strategy has been changed to plain. It means that potentially, if a value in the column is large enough, it is not possible to save the row. Problem detection system catalog base tables only 2021-02-25 17:29 MIT License View
78 Base table columns with a composite type Find base table columns with a composite type. Think through as to whether a column with a composite type could be replaced with a separate table. General system catalog base tables only 2020-11-06 14:51 MIT License View
79 Base table columns with an array type Find base table columns with an array type. Think through as to whether a column with an array type could be replaced with a separate table. General INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables 2020-11-06 14:51 MIT License View
80 Base table columns with CHAR(n) or VARCHAR(n) type Find base table columns with CHAR(n) or VARCHAR(n) type and make sure that n is not too big or too small. Also make sure that you do not use CHAR(n) in case of columns that have to keep variable length strings.
