PostgreSQL的generate_series函数应用例子

Pg中有一个很有用处的内置函数generate_series,可以按不同的规则用来产生一系列的填充数据。

一、语法

generate_series(start,stop)                --int or bigint
generate_series(start,stop,step)           --int or bigint
generate_series(start,stop, step interval) --timestamp or timestamp with time zone

二、应用例子

1.int类型,不写步长时默认是1
postgres=# select generate_series(1,10);
 generate_series 
-----------------
               1
               2
               3
               4
               5
               6
               7
               8
               9
              10
(10 rows)

postgres=# select generate_series(1,10,3);
 generate_series 
-----------------
               1
               4
               7
              10
(4 rows)

postgres=# select generate_series(5,1);
 generate_series 
-----------------
(0 rows)

postgres=# select generate_series(5,1,-1);
 generate_series 
-----------------
               5
               4
               3
               2
               1
(5 rows) 
 

2.时间类型
postgres=# select generate_series(now(),now() + '7 day','1 day');
        generate_series        
-------------------------------

 2012-09-02 22:12:40.915368+08
 2012-09-03 22:12:40.915368+08
(8 rows)

postgres=# select generate_series(to_date('20120827','yyyymmdd'),to_date('20120828','yyyymmdd'),'3 h');
    generate_series     
------------------------
 2012-08-27 00:00:00+08
 2012-08-27 03:00:00+08

(9 rows)
 
3.IP类型
postgres=# create table t_kenyon(id int,ip_start inet,ip_end inet);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# insert into t_kenyon values(1,'192.168.1.254','192.168.2.5');
INSERT 0 1
