hi.
we allow the "COPY table TO" command to copy rows from materialized
views in [1].
The attached patch is to add a tab complete for it.

Hi!
Patch works good for me, but I noticed that psql COPY <tab> suggests
partitioned relation both with and without this patch. Maybe that's
not a big problem, if [0] will be pushed.
Is the partitioned table currently tab-completed for the COPY FROM case?
If I'm not mistaken, yes. I double checked.
INSTEAD OF INSERT triggers - though maybe that's overkill?
That's wild to me, psql tab completions feature designed to support
postgresql not fully, but in frequent cases. So maybe we should keep
it stupud.
I agree that it's reasonable to exclude such rarely used objects from
tab-completion. How about including just tables, partitioned tables,
foreign tables, and materialized views?
I've attached a patch for that.
Regards,

Subject: [PATCH v2] psql: Improve tab completion for COPY command.
Previously, tab completion for COPY only suggested plain tables
and partitioned tables, even though materialized views are also
valid for COPY TO (since commit 534874fac0b), and foreign tables
are valid for COPY FROM.
This commit enhances tab completion for COPY to also include
materialized views and foreign tables.
Views with INSTEAD OF INSERT triggers are supported with
COPY FROM but rarely used, so plain views are intentionally
excluded from completion.
