You can of course troll through the system tables... You might find psql -E useful if as it will show you the queries psql runs for the backslash commands'\d'). For example: $ psql -E =>\dpn Schema | Name | Type | Access privileges | Column access privileges --------+------+-------+------------------------------------------+-------------------------- public | a | table | | logged_session=arwdDxt/guy | : read_only=r/guy gives me the sql: SELECT n.nspname as "Schema", c.relname as "Name", CASE c.relkind WHEN 'r' THEN 'table' WHEN 'v' THEN 'view' WHEN 'S' THEN 'sequence' END as "Type", pg_catalog.array_to_string(c.relacl, E'\n') AS "Access privileges", pg_catalog.array_to_string(ARRAY( SELECT attname || E':\n ' || pg_catalog.array_to_string(attacl, E'\n ') FROM pg_catalog.pg_attribute a WHERE attrelid = c.oid AND NOT attisdropped AND attacl IS NOT NULL ), E'\n') AS "Column access privileges" FROM pg_catalog.pg_class c LEFT JOIN pg_catalog.pg_namespace n ON n.oid = c.relnamespace WHERE c.relkind IN ('r', 'v', 'S') ORDER BY 1, 2; -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
