1.创建数据库
createdb
[postgres@gc1 ~] createdb mydb
createdb 是一个 sql 命令 CREATE DATABASE的封装,和在psql里通过create database mydb效果是一样的
具体可以参见文档http://www.postgres.cn/docs/9.3/app-createdb.html
2.访问数据库
psql,就像sqlplus一样
[postgres@gc1 ~] plsq mydb
psql (9.4.4)
Type “help” for help.
mydb=#
最后一行也可能是mydb=>
‘#’意味着你是数据库超级用户
mydb=# select version();
version ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Postgresql 9.4.4 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu,compiled by gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-48),64-bit
(1 row)
mydb=# select version()
不加‘；’的话不会像oracle与MysqL一样等待你输入‘；’
psql程序有一些不属于sql命令的内部命令，他们以‘\’开头
mydb=# help
You are using psql,the command-line interface to Postgresql.
Type: \copyright for distribution terms
\h for help with sql commands
\? for help with psql commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
\q to quit
mydb-# \h

psql命令的帮助信息
mydb-# \q
[postgres@gc1 ~]$
\q就是退出了，也不会向MysqL一样说个bye啊:-(
关于plsql的详细内容可以看文档http://www.postgres.cn/docs/9.3/app-psql.html
挑几个有用的说说
testdb=>\set PROMPT1 ‘%n@%m %~%R%# ‘
peter@localhost testdb=>
不用说也能懂了吧
You can display tables in different ways by using the \pset command:
peter@localhost testdb=>\pset border 2Border style is 2.
peter@localhost testdb=>SELECT * FROM my_table;+-------+--------+
| first | second |
+-------+--------+
| 1 | one |
| 2 | two |
| 3 | three |
| 4 | four |
+-------+--------+
(4 rows)
peter@localhost testdb=>\pset border 0Border style is 0.
peter@localhost testdb=>SELECT * FROM my_table;first second
----- ------
1 one
2 two
3 three
4 four
(4 rows)
peter@localhost testdb=>\pset border 1Border style is 1.
peter@localhost testdb=>\pset format unalignedOutput format is unaligned.
peter@localhost testdb=>\pset fieldsep ","Field separator is ",".
peter@localhost testdb=>\pset tuples_onlyShowing only tuples.
peter@localhost testdb=>SELECT second,first FROM my_table;one,1
two,2
three,3
four,4
通过\pset改变输出格式
Alternatively,use the short commands:
peter@localhost testdb=>\a \t \xOutput format is aligned.
Tuples only is off.
Expanded display is on.
peter@localhost testdb=>SELECT * FROM my_table;-[ RECORD 1 ]-
first | 1
second | one
-[ RECORD 2 ]-
first | 2
second | two
-[ RECORD 3 ]-
first | 3
second | three
-[ RECORD 4 ]-
first | 4
second | four
\x Expanded display
