我有两个表,其架构如下所示: -
postgres=# \d products1;
Table "public.products1"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------------------+---------+--------------------------------------------------------
id | integer | not null default nextval('products1_id_seq'::regclass)
name | text | not null
default_picture_id | integer |
Indexes:
"products1_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (id)
"unique_id_default_pic_id" UNIQUE CONSTRAINT, btree (id, default_picture_id)
Foreign-key constraints:
"fk_products_1" FOREIGN KEY (id, default_picture_id) REFERENCES product_pictures1(product_id, id) ON UPDATE RESTRICT ON DELETE RESTRICT
Referenced by:
TABLE "product_pictures1" CONSTRAINT "fk_id_product_id" FOREIGN KEY (id, product_id) REFERENCES products1(default_picture_id, id)
postgres=# \d product_pictures1;
Table "public.product_pictures1"
Column | Type | Modifiers
------------+---------+----------------------------------------------------------------
id | integer | not null default nextval('product_pictures1_id_seq'::regclass)
img_path | text | not null
product_id | integer |
Indexes:
"product_pictures1_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (id)
"unique_id_productid" UNIQUE CONSTRAINT, btree (id, product_id)
Foreign-key constraints:
"fk_id_product_id" FOREIGN KEY (id, product_id) REFERENCES products1(default_picture_id, id)
Referenced by:
TABLE "products1" CONSTRAINT "fk_products_1" FOREIGN KEY (id, default_picture_id) REFERENCES product_pictures1(product_id, id) ON UPDATE RESTRICT ON DELETE RESTRICT
以下两张表互相引用: -
当我尝试删除任何一个表时,它会出现以下错误: -
postgres=# drop table products1;
ERROR: cannot drop table products1 because other objects depend on it
DETAIL: constraint fk_id_product_id on table product_pictures1 depends on table products1
HINT: Use DROP ... CASCADE to drop the dependent objects too.
但是当我使用cascade选项删除时,表被删除,但它不会删除该表中的其他表或其外键列,它只删除外键约束。
postgres=# drop table products1 cascade;
NOTICE: drop cascades to constraint fk_id_product_id on table product_pictures1
DROP TABLE
postgres=# \d product_pictures1;
Table "public.product_pictures1"
Column | Type | Modifiers
------------+---------+----------------------------------------------------------------
id | integer | not null default nextval('product_pictures1_id_seq'::regclass)
img_path | text | not null
product_id | integer |
Indexes:
"product_pictures1_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (id)
"unique_id_productid" UNIQUE CONSTRAINT, btree (id, product_id)
这是预期的行为吗?如果是on delete cascade
,删除父项中的行,则在子表中删除,但删除表不会发生相同的事情吗?
我错过了什么吗?这种行为是否特定于postgres?
提前致谢。

(...)删除由视图引用的表或另一个表的外键约束,必须指定CASCADE。 (CASCADE将完全删除从属视图,但在外键情况下,它只会删除外键约束,而不是完全删除其他表。)

因为这是DROP ... CASCADE
的设计方式。
但在外键的情况下,它只会删除外键约束,而不是其他表

这不是Postgres特有的。删除表时,Oracle和DB2的工作方式相同。
