TableManager
Helpful code to clone redshift tables
create table foos
(
id int not null primary key distkey,
name varchar(255) unique sortkey
);
class Foo < ActiveRecord::Base
end
require 'activerecord_redshift_adapter'
table_manager = ActiverecordRedshift::TableManager.new(Foo.connection, :exemplar_table_name => Foo.table_name)
table_manager.duplicate_table
yields:
select oid from pg_namespace where nspname = 'public' limit 1;
select oid,reldiststyle from pg_class where relnamespace = 2200 and relname = 'foos' limit 1;
select contype,conkey from pg_constraint where connamespace = 2200 and conrelid = 212591;
select attname,attnum from pg_attribute where attrelid = 212591 and attnum in (2,1);
show search_path;
set search_path = 'public';
select * from pg_table_def where tablename = 'foos' and schemaname = 'public';
create temporary table temporary_events_25343
(
id integer not null distkey,
name character varying(255),
primary key (id),
unique (name)
) sortkey (name);
set search_path = '$user','public';
