A project to implement a query cache using pgpool code, probably lots of
good ideas there.

Cheers

Hi,

pgpool-II (pgpool.net) does exactly the same thing.

It receive SELECT query from clients, 1) parse it to find table names,
and 2) gets the oids (unique identifier in the PostgreSQL system
catalog) to recognize them. when the SELECT succeeds , it store the
query result (cache) on either shared memory or memcached according to
user's choice. For query cache invalidation, pgpool-II remembers all
oids related to the SELECTs which are source of query cache. If one of
tables get updated, pgpoool-II invalidates all of cache using the oid.

For #1, pgpool-II has a query parser copied from PostgreSQL.

pgpool-II is an open source project, so you could get some idea to
implement your own tool.

Best regards,

Sorry, it's not about querying. I am implementing an invalidation
mechanism for Postgres Query Cache as part of my masters project. In
order to this, I need to store details(like name) of each table the
query uses. In essence, I need to store the table names of the cached
queries.
Initially, I thought of writing a code that could extract the table
names but later discovered that it is a gargantuan task as I shall
have to include around 600 production rules as was hinted in a
Stackoverflow Exchange post. Hence, I thought of getting hold of the
data structure used for storing table names of a DB but I couldn't
get it.
Sorry for the long post but do you know where these tables
information of a DB gets stored? Or can you suggest me a
mechanism(needn't be fully perfect) to extract the table names? I
went through the parser of postgres but it was confusing.
Thanks

Hello, I am unable to find the function which retrieves the 'list of
names of the tables' used in a DB.

You may find what you want in: select table_name from
information_schema.tables;
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/infoschema-tables.html

  Reason: I need a mechanism by which I can extract the names of the
tables used in a query which has been parsed. My plan is to check for
a match of each word in the query with a list of names of the tables
used in the current DB so that each hit confirms a 'table name' in
the query in most cases.

This sounds rather flaky.
Maybe it would be better to just EXPLAIN the query and see if you get
error code 42P01postgres=# \set VERBOSITY verbosepostgres=# explain
select * from doesnotexist;ERROR:  42P01: relation "doesnotexist"
does not existLINE 1: explain select * from doesnotexist;
Unfortunately this won't help you much if you want to know all of the
tables that don't exist.
Also, just for the future, a question like this might be more suited
for the pgsql-gene...@postgresql.org list.

David Rowley
