Hi,
I want to find out whether a user has a select privilege on a particular
database. This is what I see when it does:
# select relacl from pg_class where relname = 'mydbtable';
relacl
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
{mydbname=arwdxt/mydbname,mydbuser=r/mydbname}
(1 row)
Is this the best way to parse that easily from within PostgreSQL:
# select 1 from pg_class where relname = 'mydbtable' and relacl ~ 'mydbuser=r/mydbname';
?column?
----------
1
(1 row)
# select 1 from pg_class where relname = 'mydbtable' and relacl ~ 'mydbuser=w/mydbname';
?column?
----------
(0 rows)
Where is this documented? I tried searching for 'relacl' and 'aclitem' in
the docs, but didn't come up with much.
I did find a Perl module at http://search.cpan.org/~dwheeler/Pg-Priv-0.10/
that seems to extract relacl and parse it on its own, which sounds like a
kludge.
