To list tables in a schema postgres - In addition to the dt match, you can also look into the database catalogue:
SELECT nspname||'.'||relname AS full_rel_name
FROM pg_class, pg_namespace
WHERE relnamespace = pg_namespace.oid
AND nspname = 'yourschemaname'
AND relkind = 'r';
You can also do it with the more standard information schema, but it tends to be slower:
SELECT table_schema||'.'||table_name AS full_rel_name
FROM information_schema.tables
WHERE table_schema = 'yourschemaname';Free tutorials and interview questions from industry experts — learn the skill, then get ready to prove it.
