Re: How to get index columns/dir/ord informations?

Hi!

The pg_index, and pg_indexes is good for I get the index names, and types.

I have two indexes on test table "a":

CREATE INDEX ix1
  ON a
  USING btree
  (a);


CREATE UNIQUE INDEX x2
  ON a
  USING btree
  (a DESC, b);

From this I can recognize the type (unique or normal) of the index, but none of the columns.

I don't found any tables that can say to me, which columns with which direction used in index.

A pseudo code demonstrate it:

select * from pg_index_columns where index_name = 'x2'

Ordinal       ColName    IsAsc
1                 a                   False
2                 b                   True

Have PGSQL same information?

Thanks:

Hi,

Query to list the tables and its concerned indexes.

SELECT indexrelid::regclass as index , relid::regclass as
table FROM pg_stat_user_indexes JOIN pg_index USING
(indexrelid) WHERE idx_scan < 100 AND indisunique IS FALSE;

Query will list the contraints.

SELECT relname FROM pg_class WHERE oid IN ( SELECT indexrelid FROM pg_index, pg_class WHERE pg_class.oid=pg_index.indrelid AND ( indisunique = 't' OR indisprimary = 't' ) );

To get the column order number, use this query.

SELECT a.attname,a.attnum FROM pg_class c, pg_attribute a, pg_type t WHERE c.relname = 'vacc' AND a.attnum > 0 AND a.attrelid = c.oid AND a.atttypid = t.oid;

Note: This query for a particular Table 'VACC'

Hi!

I want to migrate some database to PG.
I want to make intelligens migrator, that makes the list of the SQL-s what need to do to get same table structure in PG as in the Source DB.

All things I can get from the views about tables, except the indices.

These indices are not containing the constraints - these elements I can analyze.

I found and SQL that get the index columns:


select
t.relname as table_name,
i.relname as index_name,
a.attname as column_name
from
pg_class t,
pg_class i,
pg_index ix,
pg_attribute a
where
t.oid = ix.indrelid
and i.oid = ix.indexrelid
and a.attrelid = t.oid
and a.attnum = ANY(ix.indkey)
and t.relkind = 'r'
and t.relname = 'a'
and ix.indisunique = 'f'
and ix.indisprimary = 'f'
order by
t.relname,
i.relname;

This can list the columns. But - what a pity - this don't containing that:
- Is this index unique?
- What the direction of the sort by columns
- What is the ordinal number of the column

So everything what I need to analyze that the needed index is exists or not.


Please help me: how can I get these informations?
I don't want to drop the tables everytime if possible.
