Hello,

I am new to pgSQL. I would like to know if there is a way to do the following using pure SQL:
1. Retrieve list of all Tables in a database
2. Retrieve list of all Functions, Triggers, Sequences, Views, etc.
3. Retrieve list of all Group Roles
4. Retrieve list of all Login Roles
5. Structure of a Table

most of that stuff can be fetched from the INFORMATION_SCHEMA, such as ..

select * from information_schema.tables where table_schema not in ('pg_catalog','information_schema');

select * from information_schema.columns where table_schema='schemaname' and table_name='tablename';


note, * on both of these returns a lot of data, you may want to be more selective, depending on just what infoyou need to know, especially about the columns.
