AUTO INCREMENT(自动增长) 会在新记录插入表中时生成一个唯一的数字。
PostgreSQL 使用序列来标识字段的自增长,数据类型有 smallserial、serial 和 bigserial 。这些属性类似于 MySQL 数据库支持的 AUTO_INCREMENT 属性。
使用 MySQL 设置自动增长的语句如下:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `runoob_tbl`( `runoob_id` INT UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT, `runoob_title` VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL, `runoob_author` VARCHAR(40) NOT NULL, `submission_date` DATE, PRIMARY KEY ( `runoob_id` ))ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
MySQL 是用 AUTO_INCREMENT 这个属性来标识字段的自增。
PostgreSQL 使用序列来标识字段的自增长:
CREATE TABLE runoob( id serial NOT NULL, alttext text, imgurl text)
SMALLSERIAL、SERIAL 和 BIGSERIAL 范围:
伪类型 | 存储大小 | 范围 |
---|---|---|
SMALLSERIAL | 2字节 | 1 到 32,767 |
SERIAL | 4字节 | 1 到 2,147,483,647 |
BIGSERIAL | 8字节 | 1 到 922,337,2036,854,775,807 |
语法
SERIAL 数据类型基础语法如下:
CREATE TABLE tablename ( colname SERIAL);
实例
假定我们要创建一张 COMPANY 表,并创建下面几个字段:
runoobdb=# CREATE TABLE COMPANY( ID SERIAL PRIMARY KEY, NAME TEXT NOT NULL, AGE INT NOT NULL, ADDRESS CHAR(50), SALARY REAL);
现在往表中插入几条记录:
INSERT INTO COMPANY (NAME,AGE,ADDRESS,SALARY)VALUES ( 'Paul', 32, 'California', 20000.00 );INSERT INTO COMPANY (NAME,AGE,ADDRESS,SALARY)VALUES ('Allen', 25, 'Texas', 15000.00 );INSERT INTO COMPANY (NAME,AGE,ADDRESS,SALARY)VALUES ('Teddy', 23, 'Norway', 20000.00 );INSERT INTO COMPANY (NAME,AGE,ADDRESS,SALARY)VALUES ( 'Mark', 25, 'Rich-Mond ', 65000.00 );INSERT INTO COMPANY (NAME,AGE,ADDRESS,SALARY)VALUES ( 'David', 27, 'Texas', 85000.00 );INSERT INTO COMPANY (NAME,AGE,ADDRESS,SALARY)VALUES ( 'Kim', 22, 'South-Hall', 45000.00 );INSERT INTO COMPANY (NAME,AGE,ADDRESS,SALARY)VALUES ( 'James', 24, 'Houston', 10000.00 );
查看 COMPANY 表的记录如下:
id | name | age | address | salary----+-------+-----+------------+-------- 1 | Paul | 32 | California | 20000 2 | Allen | 25 | Texas | 15000 3 | Teddy | 23 | Norway | 20000 4 | Mark | 25 | Rich-Mond | 65000 5 | David | 27 | Texas | 85000 6 | Kim | 22 | South-Hall | 45000 7 | James | 24 | Houston | 10000
