sql标准中临时表是一次创建,以后使用的时候无须再次创建的. 并且每个会话保持各自的数据.
但是在Postgresql中,临时表的使用有所改变.
这个有好处也有坏处,好处是不同的会话能够使用同名但是不同结构的临时表. sql标准无法做到.
坏处是新建的会话如果只是要使用同名同结构的临时表也有重新创建.
【语法】
CREATE [ [ GLOBAL | LOCAL ] { TEMPORARY | TEMP } | UNLOGGED ] TABLE [ IF NOT EXISTS ] table_name ( [{ column_name data_type [ COLLATE collation ] [ column_constraint [ ... ] ]| table_constraint| LIKE source_table [ like_option ... ] }[, ... ]] )[ INHERITS ( parent_table [, ... ] ) ][ WITH ( storage_parameter [= value] [, ... ] ) | WITH OIDS | WITHOUT OIDS ][ ON COMMIT { PRESERVE ROWS | DELETE ROWS | DROP } ][ TABLESPACE tablespace_name ]
红色部分是与临时表有关的. 其中GLOBAL和LOCAL在这个语法中是一样的,没有分别,但是在sql标准中是不一样的.
ON COMMIT { PRESERVE ROWS | DELETE ROWS | DROP
PRESERVE ROWS
表示临时表的数据在事务结束后保留.
DELETE ROWS 表示
临时表的数据在事务结束后truncate掉.
默认使用的是
PRESERVE ROWS.

会话1 :
digoal=> create temp table t(id int);CREATE TABLEdigoal=> select relname,relnamespace,oid from pg_class where relname='t';relname | relnamespace | oid---------+--------------+-------t | 41192 | 41203(1 row)digoal=> select nspname from pg_namespace where oid=41192;nspname-----------pg_temp_2(1 row)
digoal=> \qpg9.2.0@db-172-16-3-150-> psql digoal digoalpsql (9.2.0)Type "help" for help.digoal=> select nspname from pg_namespace where oid=41192;nspname-----------pg_temp_2(1 row)digoal=> select relname,oid from pg_class where relname='t';relname | relnamespace | oid---------+--------------+-----(0 rows)
2.
每个会话中需要使用临时表的话需要重新创建.
好处是不同的会话能够使用同名但是不同结构的临时表.

会话3
pg9.2.0@db-172-16-3-150-> psql digoal digoalpsql (9.2.0)Type "help" for help.digoal=> create temp table t(id text,id2 int,info text);CREATE TABLEdigoal=> select relname,oid from pg_class where relname='t';relname | relnamespace | oid---------+--------------+-------t | 11194 | 41206t | 41192 | 41209t | 41215 | 41217(3 rows)digoal=> select nspname from pg_namespace where oid in (11194, 41192, 41215);nspname-----------pg_temp_1pg_temp_2pg_temp_3(3 rows)
digoal=> begin;BEGINdigoal=> create temp table test (id int) on commit preserve rows;CREATE TABLEdigoal=> create temp table test1 (id int) on commit delete rows;CREATE TABLEdigoal=> create temp table test2 (id int) on commit drop;CREATE TABLEdigoal=> select relname,oid from pg_class where relname in ('test', 'test1', 'test2');relname | relnamespace | oid---------+--------------+-------test | 41215 | 41223test1 | 41215 | 41226test2 | 41215 | 41232(3 rows)digoal=> insert into test values (1);INSERT 0 1digoal=> insert into test1 values (1);INSERT 0 1digoal=> commit;COMMIT
事务提交后test2已经被自动drop掉了.
digoal=> select relname, 'test2');relname | relnamespace | oid---------+--------------+-------test | 41215 | 41223test1 | 41215 | 41226(2 rows)
test的数据事务提交后数据保留.
digoal=> select * from test;id----1(1 row)
test1的数据事务提交后数据已删除.
digoal=> select * from test1;id----(0 rows)
test2在事务提交后表已删除.
digoal=> select * from test2;ERROR: relation "test2" does not existLINE 1: select * from test2;^
4. 如果有临时表和非临时表重名了,那么默认是使用临时表的,如果要使用非临时表,需要带上schema,如schema.table.
digoal=> create table dup_table_name (id int);CREATE TABLEdigoal=> create temp table dup_table_name (id int);CREATE TABLEdigoal=> insert into digoal.dup_table_name values (1);INSERT 0 1digoal=> select * from dup_table_name ;id----(0 rows)digoal=> insert into dup_table_name values (2);INSERT 0 1digoal=> select * from dup_table_name ;id----2(1 row)digoal=> select * from digoal.dup_table_name ;id----1(1 row)
5. 临时表上创建的索引也是临时的.
digoal=> create index idx_test on dup_table_name (id);CREATE INDEXdigoal=> \d dup_table_nameTable "pg_temp_3.dup_table_name"Column | Type | Modifiers--------+---------+-----------id | integer |Indexes:"idx_test" btree (id)digoal=> \di idx_testList of relationsSchema | Name | Type | Owner | Table-----------+----------+-------+--------+----------------pg_temp_3 | idx_test | index | digoal | dup_table_name(1 row)
6. 临时表无法选择性的创建在某个schema下面,它是存在于临时schema的,例如pg_temp_?. 对应的TOAST表也在临时的schema下,例如(pg_toast_temp_?) . 虽然无法选择schema但是tablespace是可以指定的.
digoal=> create temp table digoal.tmp_test (id int);ERROR: cannot create temporary relation in non-temporary schema
【小结】
1. 如果有临时表和非临时表重名了,如schema.table.
2. 临时表上创建的索引也是临时的.
3. 临时表无法选择性的创建在某个schema下面,例如(pg_toast_temp_?) . 虽然无法选择schema但是tablespace是可以指定的.
