**Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe what you are trying to do.** As suggested by @Dandandan on https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/2279#discussion_r869751636 it would be very nice to be able to see the original SQL used to define a view. Apparently postgres uses a function: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14634322/how-to-see-the-create-view-code-for-a-view-in-postgresql Mysql uses `SHOW CREATE VIEW`: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/show-create-view.html ```sql mysql> create view f as select * from foo; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) mysql> show create view f; +------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+----------------------+----------------------+ | View | Create View | character_set_client | collation_connection | +------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+----------------------+----------------------+ | f | CREATE ALGORITHM=UNDEFINED DEFINER=`root`@`localhost` SQL SECURITY DEFINER VIEW `f` AS select `foo`.`bar` AS `bar`,`foo`.`baz` AS `baz` from `foo` | utf8mb4 | utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci | +------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+----------------------+----------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) ``` **Describe the solution you'd like** Store the original SQL and make it accessable via SQL **Describe alternatives you've considered** **Additional context** https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/pull/2279 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
