pgcmd

Non-interactive PostgreSQL query tool.

By default, it outputs JSON which means that you can process and view the results with tools like jq or catj.

Install

npm install -g pgcmd

Usage

pgcmd -h localhost \
      -u postgres \
      -p p@ssw0rd \
      -d postgres \
      'select * from pg_database where datname = $1' \
      -m template0

If no script is specified, pgcmd reads from the standard input:

echo 'select * from pg_database where datname = $1' | pgcmd -m template0

Output:

[
  {
    "datname": "template0",
    "datdba": 10,
    "encoding": 6,
    "datcollate": "en_US.utf8",
    "datctype": "en_US.utf8",
    "datistemplate": true,
    "datallowconn": false,
    "datconnlimit": -1,
    "datlastsysoid": 13066,
    "datfrozenxid": "562",
    "datminmxid": "1",
    "dattablespace": 1663,
    "datacl": "{=c/postgres,postgres=CTc/postgres}"
  }
]

It can also output CSV:

pgcmd 'select * from pg_database' --csv

Output:

datname,datdba,encoding,datcollate,datctype,datistemplate,datallowconn,datconnlimit,datlastsysoid,datfrozenxid,datminmxid,dattablespace,datacl
postgres,10,6,en_US.utf8,en_US.utf8,,1,-1,13066,562,1,1663,
template1,10,6,en_US.utf8,en_US.utf8,1,1,-1,13066,562,1,1663,"{=c/postgres,postgres=CTc/postgres}"
