I'm sorry I realized that I only need to know which users have permissions to the table which I can do through
$ psql -t
SELECT grantee
FROM information_schema.role_table_grants
WHERE table_name='table_name'
GROUP BY grantee;thanks!

Thanks for the quick response.
That does not work for what I need because I only need the owner and permissions of one table, I need the grant to look like the output that pg_dump displays.
ex:
GRANT ALL ON TABLE testing_cdc TO bob;
--
-- PostgreSQL database dump complete
--
I need a way which my script can isolate the owner's name and set it to a variable on its own. Same with grant.
Thanks

HI,
I would like to know if there is a better way to grab the grant permissions as well as the "owner to" of a table.
I can currently do this through a pg_dumb with greps for "^grant" and "^alter" but than I need to do a word search of those lines looking for the specific answers which gets much more involved.
I essentially need to know what grant command was ran and use that grant permission to set to a variable for a script.
Ex: GRANT ALL ON TABLE testing TO bob; then set only the "all" to a variable.
And then same for the ALTER .... OWNER TO bob.
This is on postgresl 9.6.
Thank you,
Chris

Chris, see if the query below will help. Note, you need to execute as a superuser.
SELECT n.nspname,
c.relname,
o.rolname AS owner,
array_to_string(ARRAY[c.relacl], '|') as permits
FROM pg_class c
JOIN pg_namespace n ON (n.oid = c.relnamespace)
JOIN pg_authid o ON (o.oid = c.relowner)
WHERE n.nspname not like 'pg_%'
AND n.nspname not like 'inform_%'
AND relkind = 'r'
ORDER BY 1;
