psql

run command from cli

psql -c "SELECT datname FROM pg_database;"

Connect to remote database:

export PGPASSWORD=password && psql --host=10.111.222.1 --port=5492 --username=user --no-password postgres

install psql

apt-get install freetds-bin

List databases

Alternative 1

SELECT datname FROM pg_database;

Alternative 2

gives more information too. 

\l

...

Alternative 3

select database

\c testdb;

show tables

List all tables in all schemas 

\dt *.*

list tables in current schema 

\dt

Or from command line.

  1. Is database in backup
SELECT pg_is_in_backup();

restore

Look at permissions on database 

psql -c "\l"
export DATABASE=very_nice_database

Drop database connectipons. 

psql -c "SELECT pg_terminate_backend(pg_stat_activity.pid) FROM pg_stat_activity WHERE pg_stat_activity.datname = '${DATABASE}' AND pid <> pg_backend_pid();"

Drop database. 

dropdb ${DATABASE}

Create database 

createdb -T template0 ${DATABASE}

Restore database 

pg_restore -j8 -d ${DATABASE} --no-privileges --no-owner --clean --if-exists --exit-on-error /tmp/${DATABASE}.$(date '+%Y%m%d' --date "-4 days").dump
  1. Set correct permissions.
psql -c "ALTER DATABASE ${DATABASE} OWNER TO ${OWNER};"

bloat

Every record that has been deleted but is still taking some space is called a dead tuple. 
Once there is no dependency on those dead tuples with the already running transactions, the dead tuples are no longer needed. 
Thus, PostgreSQL runs VACUUM on such Tables. VACUUM reclaims the storage occupied by these dead tuples. 
The space occupied by these dead tuples may be referred to as Bloat. 
VACUUM scans the pages for dead tuples and marks them to the freespace map (FSM).

Query for bloat(which looks bloated... :-)

clear space vacuum

\c database
vacuum;

if that doesn't work do: 

vacuum: freeze; or vacuum full;

vacuum table

Select database 

\c ucc

select role 

SET search_path TO myschema, kdl;

Vacuum table 

vacuum full taxation_initial_data;

autovacuum

Is autovacuum enabled. 

SHOW autovacuum;

count table

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM TABLE_NAME;

If you don't need an exact count, the current statistic from the catalog table pg_class might be good enough and is much faster to retrieve for big tables. 

SELECT reltuples AS approximate_row_count FROM pg_class WHERE relname = 'table_name';

number of connections

su - postgres -c "psql -t -c 'SELECT * FROM pg_stat_activity;'" | wc -l

drop connections

SELECT pg_terminate_backend(pg_stat_activity.pid) FROM pg_stat_activity WHERE pg_stat_activity.datname = 'dbname' AND pid <> pg_backend_pid();

reread configuration

SELECT pg_reload_conf();

list prepared transactions

select * from pg_prepared_xacts where database='cti_batch';

Permissions in postgres

pg_hba.conf  local file         which is a local file that defines which sources for login credentials to use. (ldap, local users... to me it feels like nsswitch.conf)
owner        database           of database. The right to modify or destroy an object is always the privilege of the owner only.
role:s       separate database  are like user and groups combined. One role can inherit another. Different attributes gives various capabilities. login, superuser...
privileges   database           on (table, function...): SELECT , INSERT , UPDATE , DELETE
You can login with one role and then switch to another.

roles/users

Which roles and users exist. 

\du

set new role

set role super-man;

SELECT current_user;

tablespaces

List tablespaces 

SELECT spcname FROM pg_tablespace;

how many rows in table

SELECT reltuples AS estimate FROM pg_class where relname = 'member_offer';

delete rows matching value and timestamp

DELETE FROM receipt_transaction WHERE status_point = 'FAIL_POINT_CALC' and business_date  < ( now() - interval '+14 day' ) ;

master/slave setup

Streaming replication in PostgreSQL works on log shipping. Every transaction in postgres is written to a transaction log called WAL (write-ahead log) to achieve durability. A slave uses these WAL segments to continuously replicate changes from its master. There exists three mandatory processes – wal sender , wal receiver and startup process, these play a major role in achieving streaming replication in postgres. Log Sequence Number, or LSN, is a pointer to a location in the WAL.

wal(write ahead log)

pg_xlog directory holds the WAL (Write Ahead Log) files.WAL files contain a record of all changes made to the database.
