Обсуждение: how to show foreign keys of a table
Hi, in psql, the command "\d <table>" gives me the table-definitions, but the defined foreign keys don't show up. How can I get those? How can I check, what foreign keys a table has? Thanx

Correct? I too need to view foreign keys.

To quote Mike's email:
Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2000 23:28:32 -0500 (EST)
From: Michael Fork <mfork@toledolink.com>
To: pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org
Subject: RE: [HACKERS] SQL to retrieve FK's, Update/Delete action,
etc. (fwd)
There ya go, I figured it out :) Given the name a table, this query will
return all foreign keys in that table, the table the primary key is in,
the name of the primary key, if the are deferrable, if the are initially
deffered, and the action to be performed (RESTRICT, SET NULL, etc.). To
get the foreign keys and primary keys and tables, you must parse the
null-terminated pg.tgargs.
Good night :)
