Some weirdness:
postgres=# CREATE VIEW v_test2 AS SELECT 1 moo;
CREATE VIEW
postgres=# CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW mv_test2 AS SELECT moo, 2*moo FROM
v_test2 UNION ALL SELECT moo, 3*moo FROM v_test2;
SELECT 2
postgres=# \d+ mv_test2
Materialized view "public.mv_test2"
Column | Type | Modifiers | Storage | Stats target | Description
----------+---------+-----------+---------+--------------+-------------
moo | integer | | plain | |
?column? | integer | | plain | |
View definition:
SELECT "*SELECT* 1".moo, "*SELECT* 1"."?column?";
Has OIDs: no
The "weirdness" I refer you to is the view definition. This does not occur
with a straightforward UNION.
This does not occur with a regular view:
postgres=# CREATE VIEW v_test3 AS SELECT moo, 2*moo FROM v_test2 UNION ALL
SELECT moo, 3*moo FROM v_test2;
CREATE VIEW
postgres=# \d+ v_test3
View "public.v_test3"
Column | Type | Modifiers | Storage | Description
----------+---------+-----------+---------+-------------
moo | integer | | plain |
?column? | integer | | plain |
View definition:
SELECT v_test2.moo, 2 * v_test2.moo
FROM v_test2
UNION ALL
SELECT v_test2.moo, 3 * v_test2.moo
FROM v_test2;
