9.25. 集返回函数#
本节介绍可能返回多行的函数。此类中最常用的函数是序列生成函数,如表 9.65和表 9.66中所述。本手册的其他位置介绍了其他更专业的集合返回函数。有关组合多个集合返回函数的方法,请参见第 7.2.1.4 节。

当*step
为正数时,如果start
大于stop
,则返回 0 行。相反,当step
为负数时,如果start
小于stop
,则返回 0 行。如果任何输入为NULL
,也会返回 0 行。step
*为零是错误的。下面是一些示例
SELECT * FROM generate_series(2,4);

SELECT * FROM generate_series(5,1,-2);

SELECT * FROM generate_series(4,3);

(0 rows)
SELECT generate_series(1.1, 4, 1.3);

-- this example relies on the date-plus-integer operator:
SELECT current_date + s.a AS dates FROM generate_series(0,14,7) AS s(a);

2004-02-12
2004-02-19
(3 rows)
SELECT * FROM generate_series('2008-03-01 00:00'::timestamp,
'2008-03-04 12:00', '10 hours');
generate_series
---------------------

2008-03-03 02:00:00
2008-03-03 12:00:00
2008-03-03 22:00:00
2008-03-04 08:00:00
(9 rows)
-- this example assumes that TimeZone is set to UTC; note the DST transition:
SELECT * FROM generate_series('2001-10-22 00:00 -04:00'::timestamptz,
'2001-11-01 00:00 -05:00'::timestamptz,
'1 day'::interval, 'America/New_York');
generate_series
------------------------
2001-10-22 04:00:00+00
2001-10-23 04:00:00+00
2001-10-24 04:00:00+00

(11 rows)
表 9.66. 下标生成函数
generate_subscripts
是一个便捷函数,可生成给定数组指定维度的有效下标集。对于没有请求的维度的数组或任何输入为NULL
的情况,将返回 0 行。下面是一些示例
-- basic usage:
SELECT generate_subscripts('{NULL,1,NULL,2}'::int[], 1) AS s;
s
---
1
2
3
4
(4 rows)
-- presenting an array, the subscript and the subscripted
-- value requires a subquery:
SELECT * FROM arrays;
a
--------------------
{-1,-2}
{100,200,300}
(2 rows)
SELECT a AS array, s AS subscript, a[s] AS value
FROM (SELECT generate_subscripts(a, 1) AS s, a FROM arrays) foo;
array | subscript | value
---------------+-----------+-------
{-1,-2} | 1 | -1
{-1,-2} | 2 | -2
{100,200,300} | 1 | 100
{100,200,300} | 2 | 200
{100,200,300} | 3 | 300
(5 rows)
-- unnest a 2D array:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION unnest2(anyarray)
RETURNS SETOF anyelement AS $$
select $1[i][j]
from generate_subscripts($1,1) g1(i),
generate_subscripts($1,2) g2(j);
$$ LANGUAGE sql IMMUTABLE;
CREATE FUNCTION
SELECT * FROM unnest2(ARRAY[[1,2],[3,4]]);
unnest2
---------
1

(4 rows)
当FROM
子句中的函数后缀为WITH ORDINALITY
时,一个bigint
列将附加到函数的输出列,该列从 1 开始,并针对函数输出的每一行递增 1。在集合返回函数(例如unnest()
)的情况下,这非常有用。
-- set returning function WITH ORDINALITY:
SELECT * FROM pg_ls_dir('.') WITH ORDINALITY AS t(ls,n);
