Getting started with PostgreSQL
|
||||
======
|
||||
Install, set up, create, and start using your first PostgreSQL database.
|
||||
![Guy on a laptop on a building][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Everyone has things that would be useful to collect in a database. Even if you're obsessive about keeping paperwork or electronic files, they can become cumbersome. Paper documents can be lost or completely disorganized, and information you need to access in electronic files may be buried in depths of paragraphs and pages of information.
|
||||
|
||||
When I was practicing medicine, I used [PostgreSQL][2] to keep track of my hospital patient list and to submit information about my hospital patients. I carried a printout of my daily patient list in my pocket for quick reference and to make quick notes about any changes in the patients' room, diagnosis, or other details.
|
||||
|
||||
I thought that was all behind me, until last year when my wife decided to get a new car, and I "inherited" her previous one. She had kept a folder of car repair and maintenance service receipts, but over time, it lost any semblance of organization. It takes time to sift through all the slips of paper to figure out what was done when, and I thought PostgreSQL would be a better way to keep track of this information.
|
||||
|
||||
### Install PostgreSQL
|
||||
|
||||
It had been a while since I last used PostgreSQL, and I had forgotten how to get going with it. In fact, I didn't even have it on my computer. Installing it was step one. I use Fedora, so in a console, I ran:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`dnf list postgresql*`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Notice that you don't need to use sudo to use the **list** option. This command returned a long list of packages; after scanning them, I decided I only wanted three: postgresql, postgresql-server, and postgresql-docs.
|
||||
|
||||
To find out what I needed to do next, I decided to consult the [PostgreSQL docs][3]. The docs are a very extensive reference—so extensive, in fact, that it is rather daunting. Fortunately, I found some notes I made in the past when I was upgrading Fedora and wanted to efficiently export my database, restart PostgreSQL on the new version, and import my old database.
|
||||
|
||||
### Set up PostgreSQL
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike most other software, you can't just install PostgreSQL and start using it. You must carry out two basic steps beforehand: First, you need to set up PostgreSQL, and second, you need to start it. You must do these as the **root** user (sudo will not work here).
|
||||
|
||||
To set it up, enter:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`postgresql-setup –initdb`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This establishes the location of the PostgreSQL databases on the computer. Then (still as **root**), enter these two commands:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
systemctl start postgresql.service
|
||||
systemctl enable postgresql.service
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The first command starts PostgreSQL for the current session on your computer (if you turn it off, PostgreSQL shuts down). The second command causes PostgreSQL to automatically start on subsequent reboots.
|
||||
|
||||
### Create a user
|
||||
|
||||
PostgreSQL is running, but you still can't use it because you haven't been named a user yet. To do this, you need to switch to the special user **postgres**. While you are still running as **root**, type:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`su postgres`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Since you're doing this as **root**, you don't need to enter a password. The **root** user can operate as any user without knowing their password; this is part of what makes it so powerful—and dangerous.
|
||||
|
||||
Now that you're **postgres**, run two commands like the following example (which creates the user **gregp**) to create your user:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
createuser gregp
|
||||
createdb gregp
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You will probably get an error message like: **Could not switch to /home/gregp**. This just means that the user **postgres** doesn't have access to that directory. Nonetheless, your user and the database have been created. Next, type **Exit** and **Enter** twice so you're back to being yourself again.
|
||||
|
||||
### Set up a database
|
||||
|
||||
To start using PostgreSQL, type **psql** on the command line. You should see something like **gregp=>** to the left of each line to show that you're using PostgreSQL and can only use commands that it understands. You automatically have a database (mine is named **gregp**)—with absolutely nothing in it. A database, in the sense of PostgreSQL, is just a space to work. Inside that space, you create _tables_. A table contains a list of variables, and underneath each variable is the data that makes up your database.
|
||||
|
||||
Here is how I set up my auto-service database:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
CREATE TABLE autorepairs (
|
||||
date date,
|
||||
repairs varchar(80),
|
||||
location varchar(80),
|
||||
cost numeric(6,2)
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
I could have typed this continuously on a single line, but I broke it up to illustrate the parts better and to show that the white space of tabs and line feeds is not interpreted by PostgreSQL. The data points are contained within parentheses, each variable name and data type is separated from the next by a comma (except for the last), and the command ends with a semicolon. All commands must end with a semicolon!
|
||||
|
||||
The first variable name is **date**, and its datatype is also **date**, which is OK with PostgreSQL. The second and third variables, **repairs** and **location**, are both datatype **varchar(80)**, which means they can be any mixture of up to 80 characters (letters, numbers, whatever). The last variable, **cost**, uses the **numeric** datatype. The numbers in parentheses indicate there is a maximum of six digits and two of them are decimals. At first, I tried the **real** datatype, which would be a floating-point number. The problem with **real** as a datatype comes in more advanced commands using a **WHERE** clause, like **WHERE cost = 0** or any other specific number. Since there is some imprecision in **real** values, specific numbers will never match anything.
|
||||
|
||||
### Enter data
|
||||
|
||||
Next, you can add some data (in PostgreSQL called a **row**) with the command **INSERT INTO**:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`INSERT INTO autorepairs VALUES ('2017-08-11', 'airbag recall', 'dealer', 0);`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Notice that the parentheses form a container for the values, which must be in the correct order, separated by commas, and with a semicolon at the end of the command. The value for the **date** and **varchar(80)** datatypes must be enclosed in single quotes, but number values like **numeric** do not. As feedback, you should see:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`INSERT 0 1`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Just as in your regular terminal session, you will have a history of entered commands, so often you can save a great deal of time when entering subsequent rows by pressing the Up arrow key to show the last command and editing the data as needed.
|
||||
|
||||
What if you get something wrong? Use **UPDATE** to change a value:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`UPDATE autorepairs SET date = '2017-11-08' WHERE repairs = 'airbag recall';`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or maybe you no longer want something in your table. Use **DELETE**:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`DELETE FROM autorepairs WHERE repairs = 'airbag recall';`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and the whole row will be deleted.
|
||||
|
||||
One last thing: Even though I used all caps in the PostgreSQL commands (which is also done in most documentation), you can type them in lowercase, which is what I generally do.
|
||||
|
||||
### Output data
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to show your data, use **SELECT**:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`SELECT * FROM autorepairs ORDER BY date;`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Without the **ORDER BY** option, the rows would appear however they were entered. For example, here's a selection of my auto-service data as it's output in my terminal:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
SELECT date, repairs FROM autorepairs ORDER BY date;
|
||||
|
||||
date | repairs
|
||||
\-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
2008-08-08 | oil change, air filter, spark plugs
|
||||
2011-09-30 | 35000 service, oil change, rotate tires/balance wheels
|
||||
2012-03-07 | repl battery
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
2016-06-01 | 65000 mile service, oil change
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
2017-08-11 | airbag recall

||||
2018-07-06 | oil/filter change, fuel filter, battery svc
|
||||

|
||||
2019-07-22 | oil & filter change, brake fluid flush, front differential flush
|
||||

|
||||
2019-10-09 | replace passenger taillight bulb
|
||||
2019-10-25 | replace passenger taillight assembly
|
||||
(19 rows)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To send this to a file, change the output with:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`\o autorepairs.txt`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
then run the **SELECT** command again.
|
||||
|
||||
### Exit PostgreSQL
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, to get out of PostgreSQL mode in the terminal, type:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`quit`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
or its shorthand version:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`\q`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
While this is just a brief introduction to PostgreSQL, I hope it demonstrates that it's neither difficult nor time-consuming to use the database for a simple task like this.

PostgreSQL 入门
|
||||
======
|
||||
安装，设置，创建和开始使用 PostgreSQL 数据库。
|
||||
![Guy on a laptop on a building][1]
|
||||
|
||||
每人或许都有需要在数据库中保存的东西。即使你沉迷于使用文书或电子文件，它们也会变得很麻烦。纸质文档可能会丢失或混乱，你需要访问的电子信息可能会隐藏在段落和页面的深处。
|
||||
|
||||
在我从事医学工作的时候，我使用 [PostgreSQL][2] 来跟踪我的住院患者名单并提交有关住院患者的信息。我将我的每日患者名单打印在口袋里，以便快速了解并就患者房间、诊断或其他细节的任何变化做出快速记录。
|
||||
|
||||
我以为一切没问题，直到去年我妻子决定买一辆新车，我“继承”了她以前的那辆车。她保留了汽车维修和保养服务收据的文件夹，但随着时间的流逝，它变得杂乱。花时间筛选所有纸条以弄清楚什么时候做了什么，我认为 PostgreSQL 将是更好的跟踪此信息的方法。
|
||||
|
||||
### 安装 PostgreSQL
|
||||
|
||||
自上次使用 PostgreSQ L以来已经有一段时间了，我忘记了如何使用它。实际上，我甚至没有在计算机上安装它。安装它是第一步。我使用 Fedora，因此在控制台中运行：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`dnf list postgresql*`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
请注意，你无需使用 sudo 即可使用 **list** 选项。该命令返回了很长的软件包列表。看了眼后，我决定只需要三个：postgresql、postgresql-server 和 postgresql-docs。
|
||||
|
||||
为了了解下一步需要做什么，我决定查看 [PostgreSQL 文档][3]。文档参考内容非常广泛，实际上，广泛到令人生畏。幸运的是，我发现我在升级 Fedora 时曾经做过的一些笔记，希望有效地导出数据库，在新版本上重新启动 PostgreSQL，以及导入旧数据库。
|
||||
|
||||
### 设置 PostgreSQL
|
||||
|
||||
与大多数其他软件不同，你不能只是安装 PostgreSQL 并开始使用它。你必须预先执行两个基本步骤：首先，你需要设置 PostgreSQL，第二，你需要启动它。你必须以 **root** 用户身份执行这些操作（sudo 在这里不起作用）。
|
||||
|
||||
要设置它，请输入：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`postgresql-setup –initdb`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
这将确定 PostgreSQL 数据库在计算机上的位置。然后（仍为 **root**）输入以下两个命令：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
systemctl start postgresql.service
|
||||
systemctl enable postgresql.service
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
第一个命令为当前会话启动 PostgreSQL（如果你关闭它，那么 PostgreSQL 就将关闭）。第二个命令使 PostgreSQL 在随后的重启中自动启动。
|
||||
|
||||
### 创建用户
|
||||
|
||||
PostgreSQL 正在运行，但是你仍然不能使用它，因为你还没有用户。为此，你需要切换到特殊用户 **postgres**。当你仍以 **root** 身份运行时，输入：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`su postgres`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
由于你是以 **root** 的身份执行此操作的，因此无需输入密码。root 用户可以在不知道密码的情况下以任何用户身份操作；这就是使其强大而危险的原因之一。
|
||||
|
||||
现在你就是 **postgres** 了，请运行下面两个命令，如下所示创建用户（创建用户 **gregp**）：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
createuser gregp
|
||||
createdb gregp
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
你可能会看到错误消息，如：**Could not switch to /home/gregp**。这只是意味着用户 **postgres**不能访问该目录。尽管如此，你的用户和数据库已创建。接下来，输入 **Exit** 和 **Enter** 两次，这样就回到了原来的状态。
|
||||
|
||||
### 设置数据库
|
||||
|
||||
要开始使用 PostgreSQL，请在命令行输入 **psql**。你应该在每行左侧看到类似 **gregp=>** 的内容，以显示你使用的是 PostgreSQL，并且只能使用它理解的命令。你自动获得一个数据库（我的名为 **gregp**），它里面完全没有内容。对 PostgreSQL 来说，数据库只是一个工作空间。在空间内，你创建_表_。表包含变量列表，每个变量的下面是构成数据库的数据。
|
||||
|
||||
以下是我设置汽车服务数据库的方式：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
CREATE TABLE autorepairs (
|
||||
date date,
|
||||
repairs varchar(80),
|
||||
location varchar(80),
|
||||
cost numeric(6,2)
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
我本可以在一行内输入入，但为了更好地说明结构，并表明 PostgreSQL 不会解释制表符和换行的空白，我分成了多行。字段包含在括号中，每个变量名和数据类型与下一个变量用逗号分隔（最后一个逗号除外），命令以分号结尾。所有命令都必须以分号结尾！
|
||||
|
||||
第一个变量名是 **date**，它的数据类型也是 **date**，这在 PostgreSQL 中没关系。第二个和第三个变量 **repairs** 和 **location** 都是 **varchar(80)** 类型，这意味着它们可以是最多 80 个任意字符（字母、数字等）。最后一个变量 **cost** 使用 **numeric** 类型。括号中的数字表示最多有六位数字，其中两位是小数。最初，我尝试了 **real** 类型，这将是一个浮点数。**real** 作为数据类型在使用时，在遇到 **WHERE** 子句，类似 **WHERE cost = 0** 或其他任何特定数字。由于 **real** 值有些不精确，因此特定数字将永远不会匹配。
|
||||
|
||||
### 输入数据
|
||||
|
||||
接下来，你可以使用 **INSERT INTO** 命令添加一些数据（在 PostgreSQL 中称为**行**）：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`INSERT INTO autorepairs VALUES ('2017-08-11', 'airbag recall', 'dealer', 0);`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
请注意，括号为值构成一个容器，它必须以正确的顺序，用逗号分隔，并在命令末尾加上分号。 **date** 和 **varchar(80)** 类型的值必须包含在单引号中，但数字值（如 **numeric**）不用。作为反馈，你应该会看到：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`INSERT 0 1`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
与常规终端会话一样，你将有输入命令的历史记录，因此，在输入后续行时，通常可以按向上箭头键来显示最后一个命令并根据需要编辑数据，从而节省大量时间。
|
||||
|
||||
如果出了什么问题怎么办？使用 **UPDATE** 更改值：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`UPDATE autorepairs SET date = '2017-11-08' WHERE repairs = 'airbag recall';`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
或者，也许你不再需要表中的行。使用 **DELETE**：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`DELETE FROM autorepairs WHERE repairs = 'airbag recall';`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
这将删除整行。
|
||||
|
||||
最后一件事：即使我在 PostgreSQL 命令中一直使用大写字母（在大多数文档中也这么做），你也可以用小写字母输入，这是我常做的。
|
||||
|
||||
### 输出数据
|
||||
|
||||
如果你想展示数据，使用 **SELECT**：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`SELECT * FROM autorepairs ORDER BY date;`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
没有 **ORDER BY** 的话，行将不管你输入的内容来显示。例如，以下就是我终端中输出的我的汽车服务数据：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
SELECT date, repairs FROM autorepairs ORDER BY date;
|
||||
|
||||
date | repairs
|
||||
\-----------+-----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
2008-08-08 | oil change, air filter, spark plugs
|
||||
2011-09-30 | 35000 service, oil change, rotate tires/balance wheels
|
||||
2012-03-07 | repl battery
|
||||
2012-11-14 | 45000 maint, oil/filter
|
||||
2014-04-09 | 55000 maint, oil/filter, spark plugs, air/dust filters
|
||||
2014-04-21 | replace 4 tires
|
||||
2014-04-21 | wheel alignment
|
||||
2016-06-01 | 65000 mile service, oil change
|
||||
2017-05-16 | oil change, replce oil filt housing
|
||||
2017-05-26 | rotate tires
|
||||
2017-06-05 | air filter, cabin filter,spark plugs
|
||||
2017-06-05 | brake pads and rotors, flush brakes
|
||||
2017-08-11 | airbag recall
|
||||
2018-07-06 | oil/filter change, fuel filter, battery svc
|
||||
2018-07-06 | transmission fl, p steering fl, rear diff fl
|
||||
2019-07-22 | oil & filter change, brake fluid flush, front differential flush
|
||||
2019-08-20 | replace 4 tires
|
||||
2019-10-09 | replace passenger taillight bulb
|
||||
2019-10-25 | replace passenger taillight assembly
|
||||
(19 rows)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
要将此发送到文件，将输出更改为：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`\o autorepairs.txt`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
然后再次运行 **SELECT** 命令。
|
||||
|
||||
### 退出 PostgreSQL
|
||||
|
||||
最后，在终端中退出 PostgreSQL，输入：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`quit`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
或者它的缩写版：
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
`\q`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
虽然这只是 PostgreSQL 的简要介绍，但我希望它展示了将数据库用于这样的简单任务既不困难也不费时。
