在Postgresql中计算列类型的大小

我试图找出如何确定数据库中特定列的大小，例如，我有两个名为sourceip、destinationip的列，它们都是16字节字段

我认为这可能在信息模式或\d+中的某个地方，但我找不到一个特定的命令来隔离每种列类型的大小

您可以计算数据库中的列类型大小，还是只需在Postgresql文档中引用每种类型的字节大小

pg中只有少数类型具有固定长度-几乎所有类型都是varlena类型-它具有动态长度。您可以像这样检查查询

 postgres=# select typlen from pg_type where oid = 'int'::regtype::oid;
  typlen 
 --------
       4
 (1 row)


 postgres=# select attlen from pg_attribute where attrelid = 'x'::regclass and attname = 'a';
  attlen 
 --------
       4
 (1 row)

当结果不是-1时，则类型没有固定长度

对于varlena类型，使用pg_column_size函数：

postgres=# \df *size*
                                   List of functions
   Schema   |          Name          | Result data type | Argument data types |  Type

 pg_catalog | pg_tablespace_size     | bigint           | oid                 | normal
 pg_catalog | pg_total_relation_size | bigint           | regclass            | normal
(12 rows)



 postgres=# select pg_column_size('Hello');
  pg_column_size 
 ----------------
          6
 (1 row)

 postgres=# select pg_column_size(10);
  pg_column_size 
 ----------------
               4
 (1 row)

 postgres=# select pg_column_size(now());
  pg_column_size 
 ----------------
               8
