Обсуждение: ON SELECT rule on a table without columns
Hi All,
When "ON SELECT" rule is created on a table without columns, it
successfully converts a table into the view. However, when the same is
done using CREATE VIEW command, it fails with an error saying: "view
must have at least one column". Here is what I'm trying to say:
-- create table t1 without columns
create table t1();
-- create table t2 without columns
create table t2();
-- create ON SELECT rule on t1 - this would convert t1 from table to view
create rule "_RETURN" as on select to t1 do instead select * from t2;
-- now check the definition of t1
\d t1
postgres=# \d+ t1
View "public.t1"
Column | Type | Collation | Nullable | Default | Storage | Description
--------+------+-----------+----------+---------+---------+-------------
View definition:
SELECT
FROM t2;
The output of "\d+ t1" shows the definition of converted view t1 which
doesn't have any columns in the select query.
Now, when i try creating another view with the same definition using
CREATE VIEW command, it fails with the error -> ERROR: view must have
at least one column. See below
postgres=# create view v1 as select from t2;
ERROR: view must have at least one column
OR,
postgres=# create view v1 as select * from t2;
ERROR: view must have at least one column
Isn't that a bug in create rule command or am i missing something here ?
If it is a bug, then, attached is the patch that fixes it.

Yes, it's looks like a bug to me.
If it is a bug, then, attached is the patch that fixes it.
I had quick glance to the patch - here are few commits:
1)
+ if (event_relation->rd_rel->relnatts == 0)
Can't use direct relnatts - as need to consider attisdropped.
2)
I think you may like to change the error message to be in-line with
the other error message in the similar code area.
May be something like:
"could not convert table \"%s\" to a view because table does not have any column"

Maybe I'm missing something, but why do we want to forbid this?
Because pg_dump - produce the output for such case as:
CREATE VIEW public.foo AS
SELECT
FROM public.bar;
CREATE VIEW public.foo AS
SELECT
FROM public.bar;
which fails to restore because we forbid this in create view:
postgres@20625=#CREATE VIEW public.foo AS
postgres-# SELECT
postgres-# FROM public.bar;
ERROR: view must have at least one column
postgres@20625=#
postgres@20625=#CREATE VIEW public.foo AS
postgres-# SELECT
postgres-# FROM public.bar;
ERROR: view must have at least one column
postgres@20625=#
Given
that we these days allows selects without columns, I see no reason to
require this for views. The view error check long predates allowing
SELECT and CREATE TABLE without columns. I think it's existence is just
an oversight. Tom, you did relaxed the permissive cases, any opinion?

So, shouldn't we do the same when converting table to a view that doesn't have any column in it. Regarding why we can't allow select on a view without columns given that select on a table without column is possible, I don't have any answer :) I can see that, even SELECT without any targetlist or table name in it, works fine, see this, postgres=# select; -- (1 row)

+1. This seems pretty obviously to be something we just missed when
we changed things to allow zero-column tables.

Haven't read the patch, but a question seems in order here: should
we regard this as a back-patchable bug fix? The original example
shows that it's possible to create a zero-column view in existing
releases, which I believe would then lead to dump/reload failures.
So that seems to qualify as a bug not just a missing feature.
On the other hand, given the lack of field complaints, maybe it's
not worth the trouble to back-patch. I don't have a strong
opinion either way.
BTW, has anyone checked on what the matview code paths will do?
Or SELECT INTO?
