Goal Find user user-defined routines that produce a temporary table
Notes Refers to the column pg_proc.prokind and thus works starting from PostgreSQL 11. The query does not consider the routines that are a part of an extension. In the returned body of routine the query replaces each newline character with the line break (br) tag for the better readability in case the query result is displayed in a web browser.
Type General Overview of some aspect of the database.
License MIT (opens in new tab)
Fixing Suggestion Consider using a subquery instead of putting intermediate results into a temporary table.
