I've already got a big query joining pg_class, pg_index, etc. to pull out various attributes about the indexes in my database, and I'd like to include whether it's a GIST index, a B-Tree, or whatever was in the USING clause when the index was created. > > I see that I can join with the pg_opclass table, but that has 100+ rows, and I'm not sure how to tell what is a B-Tree and what isn't. Any advice? pg_indexes (not pg_index) seems to have the data you're looking for, unless I misunderstood the question. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
