Hello

last year we are spoke about reusing pretty print view code for some queries.

Here is patch:

this patch is really short - it is nice. But - it works only with
known database objects (probably we would it) and it doesn't format
subqueries well


postgres=# select pg_pretty_query('select x.*, z.* from foo, foo x, x
z  where x.a = 10 and x.a = 30 and EXISTS(SELECT * FROM foo WHERE a =
z.a)', true, false);
                      pg_pretty_query
----------------------------------------------------------
   SELECT x.a, z.a                                        +
     FROM foo, foo x, x z                                 +
    WHERE x.a = 10 AND x.a = 30 AND (EXISTS ( SELECT foo.a+
             FROM foo                                     +
            WHERE foo.a = z.a))
(1 row)

Good stuff. That's one less item on my TODO list :-)

I think we should have a version that lets you specify the wrap column, like pg_get_viewdef does. Possibly for this case we should even default it to 0 (wrap after each item) instead of 79 which it is for views.


cheers
