Grant on Database?

От

Hey All,

We have a need to grant privileges on entire databases to users and/or
groups. It looks like GRANT just grants on tables and sequences, but I'd
like to know if there's a more direct way to do it. What I'm doing now
is getting a list of tables and sequences and calling grant for each one
in turn. How am I getting this list (I'm user Perl, not psql)? With this
query:

        SELECT relname
        FROM   pg_class
        WHERE  relkind IN ('r', 'S')
               AND relowner IN (
                   SELECT usesysid
                   FROM   pg_user
                   WHERE  LOWER(usename) = 'myuser')

Anyway, pointers to any shortcuts for this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

David

First pointer, phpPgAdmin (http://www.greatbridge.org/project/phppgadmin)
has this built into it.  It will automatically get the list of tables,
sequences and views and run a grant statment on them.

Second pointer.  GRANT will take multiple "relations" seperated by commas:

GRANT ALL ON table1, table1, seq1, seq2, view1, view2 TO my_user;

Nice. I need something that works from the shell, though. My perl script
is doing the trick for now - I just wanted to make sure that there wasn't
an official way I was missing. BTW, did my query of the pg_class table
look right? I know I was missing views - we don't have any yet!

Cool, that saves me a lot of query overhead - I can grant them all at
once!

Thanks,

David
