< p > Postgres 9.6 addedALTER TABLE tbl ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS column_name。
所以这已经过时了。您可以在较旧的版本或变体中使用它来检查列名以外的其他内容
CREATE OR REPLACE function f_add_col(_tbl regclass, _col text, _type regtype)
RETURNS bool
LANGUAGE plpgsql AS
$func$
BEGIN
IF EXISTS (SELECT FROM pg_attribute
WHERE attrelid = _tbl
AND attname = _col
AND NOT attisdropped) THEN
RETURN false;
ELSE
EXECUTE format('ALTER TABLE %s ADD COLUMN %I %s', _tbl, _col, _type);
RETURN true;
END IF;
END
$func$;
create or replace function patch_column() returns void as
$$
begin
if exists (
select * from information_schema.columns
where table_name='my_table'
and column_name='missing_col'
)
then
raise notice 'missing_col already exists';
else
alter table my_table
add column missing_col varchar;
end if;
end;
$$ language plpgsql;
select patch_column();
drop function if exists patch_column();
EXISTS的实参是一个任意的SELECT语句,或
子查询。计算子查询以确定它是否返回
任何行。如果它至少返回一行,则EXISTS的结果为
“true";如果子查询不返回任何行,EXISTS的结果为
“false" < / p >
SELECT EXISTS(SELECT column_name
FROM information_schema.columns
WHERE table_schema = 'public'
AND table_name = 'x'
AND column_name = 'y');
并使用下面的动态SQL语句修改表
DO
$$
BEGIN
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT column_name
FROM information_schema.columns
WHERE table_schema = 'public'
AND table_name = 'x'
AND column_name = 'y') THEN
ALTER TABLE x ADD COLUMN y int DEFAULT NULL;
ELSE
RAISE NOTICE 'Already exists';
END IF;
END

BEGIN
ALTER TABLE IF EXISTS bobby_tables RENAME COLUMN "dckx" TO "xkcd";
EXCEPTION
WHEN undefined_column THEN RAISE NOTICE 'Column was already renamed';
END;
END $$;
