說明
COMMENT 儲存有關資料庫物件的註解。
每個物件僅能儲存一個註解字串,因此要修改註解,請為同一物件發出新的 COMMENT 指令。 要刪除註解,請寫入 NULL 代替文字字串。當物件被移除時,註解也會自動移除。
對於大多數類型的物件,只有物件的擁有者才能設定註解。角色本身沒有擁有者,因此 COMMENT ON ROLE 的規則是您必須是超級使用者才能對超級使用者角色註解,或具有 CREATEROLE 權限才能對非超級使用者角色註解。 同樣,存取方法也沒有擁有者;所以您必須是超級使用者才能對存取方法留下註解。 當然,超級使用者可以對任何物件註解。
可以使用psql的 \d 系列指令查看註解。其他使用者界面要檢索註解的話,可以使用 psql 相同內建函數的建置,即 obj_description,col_description 和 shobj_description(請參閱表格 9.68)。
參數
object_name
relation_name
.column_name
aggregate_name
constraint_name
function_name
operator_name
policy_name
rule_name
trigger_name
要註釋的物件名稱。Table、aggregate、collation、conversion、domain、foreign table、function、index、operator、operator class、sequence、statistics、text search object、type、view 的名稱,並且可以是指定 schema。在對欄位進行註釋時,relation_name 必須引用資料表、檢視表、複合型別或外部資料表。
table_name
domain_name
在 constraint、trigger、rule 或 policy 上建立註釋時,這些參數指定定義該物件的資料表或 domain 名稱。
source_type
來源資料型別轉換的名稱。
target_type
目標資料型別轉換的名稱。
argmode
函數或彙總函數的模式:IN,OUT,INOUT 或 VARIADIC。如果省略,則預設為 IN。請注意,COMMENT 實際上並不關心 OUT 參數,因為只需要輸入參數來決定函數的識別。因此,列出 IN,INOUT 和 VARIADIC 參數就足夠了。
argname
函數或彙總參數的名稱。請注意,COMMENT 實際上並不關心參數名稱,因為只需要參數資料型別來決定函數的識別。
argtype
函數或彙總參數的資料型別。
large_object_oid
large object 的 OID。
left_type
right_type
運算子參數的資料型別(可加上綱要名稱)。使用 NONE 表示缺少前綴或後綴運算子的參數。
PROCEDURAL
這是一個噪音詞。
type_name
轉換的資料型別名稱。
lang_name
變換語言的名稱。
text
新的註解,寫成字串文字;或 NULL 以刪除註解。
注意
目前並沒有用於查看註解的安全機制:連線到資料庫的任何使用者可以看到該資料庫中的所有物件註解。對於資料庫而言,角色和資料表空間等共享物件,註解將以全域儲存,因此連線到叢集中任何資料庫的任何使用者都可以看到共享物件的所有註解。因此,請勿將安全關鍵訊息置於註解中。
範例
對資料表 mytable 加上註解:
COMMENT ON TABLE mytable IS 'This is my table.';
再來移除它:
COMMENT ON TABLE mytable IS NULL;
