- Only one comment string is stored for each object, so to modify a comment, issue a new COMMENT command for the same object. To remove a comment, write NULL in place of the text string. Comments are automatically dropped when their object is dropped.
- For most kinds of object, only the object's owner can set the comment. Roles don't have owners, so the rule for COMMENT ON ROLE is that you must be superuser to comment on a superuser role, or have the CREATEROLE privilege to comment on non-superuser roles. Of course, a superuser can comment on anything.
- Adding comment to field when i create table
postgres=# create table comment_log ( userid int not null, phonenumber int ); CREATE TABLE--comment on table's column
postgres=# comment on column comment_log.userid is 'The user ID'; COMMENT postgres=# comment on column comment_log.phonenumber is 'The phone number including the area code'; COMMENT postgres=# \d+ comment_log; Table "benz2.comment_log" Column | Type | Modifiers | Storage | Stats target | Description -------------+---------+-----------+---------+--------------+------------------------------------------ userid | integer | not null | plain | | The user ID phonenumber | integer | | plain | | The phone number including the area code--You can also add a comment to the table:
postgres=# comment on table comment_log is 'Our comment logs'; COMMENT postgres=# postgres=# \dt+ comment_log; List of relations Schema | Name | Type | Owner | Size | Description --------+-------------+-------+-------+---------+------------------ benz2 | comment_log | table | u2 | 0 bytes | Our comment logs (1 row)Additionally: int index is invalid.
--If you want to create an index on a column, you do that using the create index statement:
postgres=# \d comment_log Table "benz2.comment_log" Column | Type | Modifiers -------------+---------+----------- userid | integer | not null phonenumber | integer | postgres=# create index on comment_log(phonenumber); CREATE INDEX postgres=# \d comment_log Table "benz2.comment_log" Column | Type | Modifiers -------------+---------+----------- userid | integer | not null phonenumber | integer | Indexes: "comment_log_phonenumber_idx" btree (phonenumber)--If you want an index over both columns use:
postgres=# create index on comment_log(userid, phonenumber); CREATE INDEX postgres=# \d comment_log Table "benz2.comment_log" Column | Type | Modifiers -------------+---------+----------- userid | integer | not null phonenumber | integer | Indexes: "comment_log_phonenumber_idx" btree (phonenumber) "comment_log_userid_phonenumber_idx" btree (userid, phonenumber)--You probably want to define the userid as the primary key. This is done using the following syntax (and not using int index):
postgres=# create table comment_log ( UserId int primary key, PhoneNumber int ); CREATE TABLENote:-Defining a column as the primary key implicitly makes it not null
--Removing comments
COMMENT ON TABLE comment_log IS NULL; select obj_description('benz2.comments_log'::regclass);
