描述

COMMENT存储关于一个数据库对象的注释。

对每一个对象只保存一个注释字符串,因此为了修改一段注释,对同一个对象 发出一个新的COMMENT命令。要移除一段注释,可在文 本字符串的位置上写上NULL。当对象被删除时,其注释 也会被自动删除。

对大部分类型的对象,只有对象的拥有者可以设置注释。角色没有拥有者,因此 COMMENT ON ROLE的规则是你必须作为一个超级用户来对一个 超级用户角色设置注释,或者具有CREATEROLE特权来对非超级用 户角色设置注释。同样的,访问方法也没有拥有者,你必须作为一个超级用户来 对一个访问方法设置注释。当然,一个超级用户可以对任何东西设置注释。

使用psql的\d命令家族可以查看注释。其他检索注释的用户接口可以构建在 psql使用的内建函数之上,即 obj_descriptioncol_description以及shobj_description(见 表 9.73)。

参数

object_name
relation_name.column_name
aggregate_name
constraint_name
function_name
operator_name
policy_name
procedure_name
routine_name
rule_name
trigger_name

要被注释的对象的名称。表、聚集、排序方式、转换、域、外部表、函数、 索引、操作符、操作符类、操作符族、存储过程、例程、序列、统计信息、文本搜索对象、类型和视图 的名称可以被模式限定。在注释一列时, relation_name必须 引用一个表、视图、组合类型或者外部表。

table_name
domain_name

当在一个约束、触发器、规则或者策略上创建一段注释时,这些参数指定在其上定义 该对象的表或域的名称。

source_type

造型的源数据类型的名称。

target_type

造型的目标数据类型的名称。

argmode

一个函数,存储过程或者聚集函数的参数的模式:INOUTINOUT或者VARIADIC。 如果被省略,默认值是IN。注意 COMMENT并不真正关心 OUT参数,因为决定函数的身份只需要输入参数。因此 列出ININOUTVARIADIC参数就足够了。

argname

一个函数,存储过程或者聚集函数参数的名称。注意 COMMENT并不真正关心参数名称, 因为决定函数的身份只需要参数数据类型。

argtype

一个函数,存储过程或者聚集函数参数的数据类型。

large_object_oid

大对象的 OID。

left_type
right_type

操作符的参数的数据类型(可以是模式限定的)。对一个前缀后后缀操作符 的缺失参数可以写NONE

PROCEDURAL

这是一个噪声词。

type_name

该转换的数据类型的名称。

lang_name

该转换的语言的名称。

text

写成一个字符串的新注释。如果要删除注释,写成NULL

注解

当前对查看注释没有安全机制:任何连接到一个数据库的用户能够看到 该数据库中所有对象的注释。对于数据库、角色、表空间这类共享对象, 注释被全局存储,因此连接到集簇中任何数据库的任何用户可以看到共 享对象的所有注释。因此,不要在注释中放置有安全性风险的信息。

示例

为表mytable附加一段注释:

COMMENT ON TABLE mytable IS 'This is my table.';

移除它:

COMMENT ON TABLE mytable IS NULL;

兼容性

SQL 标准中没有COMMENT命令。
