[ADMIN] How do I grant access to entire database at once(schemas,tables,sequences,...)?
Hi ! I administrate a development server for a little team, and people want to be able to grant access to an entire database to other developers/freelancers. Up till now, I see two possibilities : 1. Write a script that queries the postgres internal tables for all tables,schemas,sequences,views,functions,... and then executes grant statements for each one of them. This would have to be repeated each time a new object is created. 2.(Not sure if this works) Insert a trigger on postgres's internal tables in template1 that grants permission to a group, say dbname_group, to the created object. Developers that need access to the database can then be added to that group. Both solutions require a serious amount of work compared to the simple task. Is there a simpler or better way to do this? Thanks for any ideas and comments! greetings, Uli ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send unregister YourEmailAddressHere to [EMAIL PROTECTED])

You could also write a stored procedure. 2.(Not sure if this works) Insert a trigger on postgres's internal tables in template1 that grants permission to a group say dbname_group to the created object. Developers that need access to the database can then be added to that group. Triggers on system tables don't work. ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
