981Too generic names (unique index columns)Find unique index (not associated with a constraint) columns with the names like id, identifikaator, code, kood, number, etc. The names could have underscores as the prefix or suffix. These are too generic names.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2023-01-07 20:34MIT License
982Too generic names (unique indexes)Find unique indexes that have too generic names like "key" or the name contain too generic words like "data" (all constraints restrict data in the table), or the name is an abbreviation of a constraint type name.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2023-01-08 10:38MIT License
983Too generic names (user-defined types, domains)Find names of user-defined types and domains that contain too generic (noise) words.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2021-10-31 17:41MIT License
984Too short table constraint namesThe names should be expressive. Find names of constraints, which are associated directly to a table, that are shorter than the length of the name of the table + two characters.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2021-02-25 17:29MIT License
985Too wide composite indexesFind composite indexes that do not support any constraint but are on more than three columns.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2021-11-06 02:40MIT License
986Triggers that are used to calculate tsvector values react to a wrong set of eventsFind triggers on base tables that are used to calculate tsvector values that react to a wrong set of events, i.e., react to the DELETE event or do not react to the INSERT and UPDATE events.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2023-11-07 10:14MIT License
987Unlogged tablesFind unlogged tables. These may improve the performance of INSERT operations, but with the price of possibly loosing data - an unlogged table is automatically truncated after a crash or unclean shutdown.Generalsystem catalog base tables only2020-11-06 14:51MIT License
988Unnecessary use of gist index type in case of an exclude constraintFind exclude constraints that are based on the gist index type although the default b-tree index type would have been enough.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2024-12-16 13:45MIT License
989Unused composite types (for table columns, typed tables, input and output parameters)Find user-defined composite types that are not used in case of any table, column, and routine (input or otput) parameter (as their type). Do not keep in your database elements that are not needed by anybody. These should be put in use or dropped, otherwise these are dead code.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2021-02-25 17:30MIT License
990Unused domains (for base table columns and parameters)Find domains that are not used in case of any base table column and routine (input or otput) parameter (as their type). Do not keep in your database elements that are not needed by anybody. These should be put in use or dropped, otherwise these are dead code.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2021-02-25 17:30MIT License

992User-defined composite typesFind composite types that are created by a user, i.e., the type is not created automatically by the database management system based on a relation.Generalsystem catalog base tables only2020-11-06 14:51MIT License
993Using system-defined names of constraints (constraints that involve more than one column)Find the constraint types in case of which there exists system-defined names.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2023-01-10 14:53MIT License
994Using system-defined names of constraints (constraints that involve one column)Find the constraint types in case of which there exists system-defined names.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2023-01-10 14:53MIT License
995Vacuum and analyze status of base tablesFind for each base table the last time when the table has been vacuumed or analyzed (either manually or automatically).Generalsystem catalog base tables only2023-10-06 13:48MIT License
996Views with security invokerFind views that have the security invoker option. Such option is possible starting from PostgreSQL 15. In case of using such views one cannot create a system where data is accessed through views and the users (applications) do not have direct access to the base tables.Problem detectionsystem catalog base tables only2023-11-13 12:20MIT License
