Namecreatelang -- install a PostgreSQL procedural language Synopsis createlang [connection-option...] langname [dbname] createlang [connection-option...] --list | -l [dbname] Description createlang is a utility for adding a procedural language to a PostgreSQL database. createlang is just a wrapper around the CREATE EXTENSION SQL command. Caution: createlang is deprecated and may be removed in a future PostgreSQL release. Direct use of the CREATE EXTENSION command is recommended instead

In order to create a database, the PostgreSQL server must be up and running (see Section 18.3). Databases are created with the SQL command CREATE DATABASE: CREATE DATABASE name; where name follows the usual rules for SQL identifiers. The current role automatically becomes the owner of the new database. It is the privilege of the owner of a database to remove it later (which also removes all the objects in it, even if they have a different owner). The creation of databases is a restricted oper

Namecreateuser -- define a new PostgreSQL user account Synopsis createuser [connection-option...] [option...] [username] Description createuser creates a new PostgreSQL user (or more precisely, a role). Only superusers and users with CREATEROLE privilege can create new users, so createuser must be invoked by someone who can connect as a superuser or a user with CREATEROLE privilege. If you wish to create a new superuser, you must connect as a superuser, not merely with CREATEROLE privil

NameCREATE USER -- define a new database role Synopsis CREATE USER name [ [ WITH ] option [ ... ] ] where option can be: SUPERUSER | NOSUPERUSER | CREATEDB | NOCREATEDB | CREATEROLE | NOCREATEROLE | INHERIT | NOINHERIT | LOGIN | NOLOGIN | REPLICATION | NOREPLICATION | BYPASSRLS | NOBYPASSRLS | CONNECTION LIMIT connlimit | [ ENCRYPTED | UNENCRYPTED ] PASSWORD 'password' | VALID UNTIL 'timestamp' | IN ROLE role_name [, ...] | IN GROUP role

NameCREATE USER MAPPING -- define a new mapping of a user to a foreign server Synopsis CREATE USER MAPPING FOR { user_name | USER | CURRENT_USER | PUBLIC } SERVER server_name [ OPTIONS ( option 'value' [ , ... ] ) ] Description CREATE USER MAPPING defines a mapping of a user to a foreign server. A user mapping typically encapsulates connection information that a foreign-data wrapper uses together with the information encapsulated by a foreign server to access an external data

Namecreatedb -- create a new PostgreSQL database Synopsis createdb [connection-option...] [option...] [dbname [description]] Description createdb creates a new PostgreSQL database. Normally, the database user who executes this command becomes the owner of the new database. However, a different owner can be specified via the -O option, if the executing user has appropriate privileges. createdb is a wrapper around the SQL command CREATE DATABASE. There is no effective difference between c

NameCREATE VIEW -- define a new view Synopsis CREATE [ OR REPLACE ] [ TEMP | TEMPORARY ] [ RECURSIVE ] VIEW name [ ( column_name [, ...] ) ] [ WITH ( view_option_name [= view_option_value] [, ... ] ) ] AS query [ WITH [ CASCADED | LOCAL ] CHECK OPTION ] Description CREATE VIEW defines a view of a query. The view is not physically materialized. Instead, the query is run every time the view is referenced in a query. CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW is similar, but if a view of the sam

NameCREATE TRANSFORM -- define a new transform Synopsis CREATE [ OR REPLACE ] TRANSFORM FOR type_name LANGUAGE lang_name ( FROM SQL WITH FUNCTION from_sql_function_name (argument_type [, ...]), TO SQL WITH FUNCTION to_sql_function_name (argument_type [, ...]) ); Description CREATE TRANSFORM defines a new transform. CREATE OR REPLACE TRANSFORM will either create a new transform, or replace an existing definition. A transform specifies how to adapt a data type to a procedural la

NameCREATE TYPE -- define a new data type Synopsis CREATE TYPE name AS ( [ attribute_name data_type [ COLLATE collation ] [, ... ] ] ) CREATE TYPE name AS ENUM ( [ 'label' [, ... ] ] ) CREATE TYPE name AS RANGE ( SUBTYPE = subtype [ , SUBTYPE_OPCLASS = subtype_operator_class ] [ , COLLATION = collation ] [ , CANONICAL = canonical_function ] [ , SUBTYPE_DIFF = subtype_diff_function ] ) CREATE TYPE name ( INPUT = input_function, OUTPUT = output_functio

NameCREATE TRIGGER -- define a new trigger Synopsis CREATE [ CONSTRAINT ] TRIGGER name { BEFORE | AFTER | INSTEAD OF } { event [ OR ... ] } ON table_name [ FROM referenced_table_name ] [ NOT DEFERRABLE | [ DEFERRABLE ] [ INITIALLY IMMEDIATE | INITIALLY DEFERRED ] ] [ FOR [ EACH ] { ROW | STATEMENT } ] [ WHEN ( condition ) ] EXECUTE PROCEDURE function_name ( arguments ) where event can be one of: INSERT UPDATE [ OF column_name [, ... ] ] DELETE TRU
