模式(schema)实际上一个命名表的集合。也可以包含一个schema视图,索引,序列,数据类型,运算符和函数。Schema是满足类似于在操作系统级别的目录,但该模式不能嵌套。 CREATE SCHEMA PostgreSQL语句创建一个模式(schema)。
语法
创建型模式的基本语法如下:
CREATE SCHEMA name;
其中,name是模式的名称。
在Schema中创建表的语法
The basic syntax to create table in schema is as follows:
CREATE TABLE myschema.mytable ( ... );
Example
Let us see an example for creating a schema. Connect to the database testdb and create a schemamyschema as follows:
testdb=# create schema myschema; CREATE SCHEMA
The message “CREATE SCHEMA” signifies that the schema is created successfully.
Now, let us create a table in the above schema as follows:
testdb=# create table myschema.company( ID INT NOT NULL, NAME VARCHAR (20) NOT NULL, AGE INT NOT NULL, ADDRESS CHAR (25) , SALARY DECIMAL (18, 2), PRIMARY KEY (ID) );
This will create an empty table. You can verify the table created with the command below:
testdb=# select * from myschema.company;
This would produce following result:
id | name | age | address | salary ----+------+-----+---------+-------- (0 rows)
删除模式语法
To drop a schema if it’s empty (all objects in it have been dropped), then use:
DROP SCHEMA myschema;
To drop a schema including all contained objects, use:
DROP SCHEMA myschema CASCADE;
使用模式的优势
It allows many users to use one database without interfering with each other.
It organizes database objects into logical groups to make them more manageable.
Third-party applications can be put into separate schemas so they do not collide with the names of other objects.
