Postgresql DROP OWNED


  • DROP OWNED drops all the objects within the current database that are owned by one of the specified roles. Any privileges granted to the given roles on objects in the current database and on shared objects (databases, tablespaces) will also be revoked.
  • DROP OWNED is often used to prepare for the removal of one or more roles. Because DROP OWNED only affects the objects in the current database, it is usually necessary to execute this command in each database that contains objects owned by a role that is to be removed.
  • Using the CASCADE option might make the command recurse to objects owned by other users.

syntax:
DROP OWNED BY name [, ...] [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]
---if user having any objects means if u2 user having any owned tables means you cannot drop that user specifying simple drop command you need to specify OWNED BY keywords
 -bash-3.2# ./psql -U u2
Password for user u2:
psql.bin (9.3.14)
Type "help" for help.

No entry for terminal type "xterm";
using dumb terminal settings.

postgres=> create table t2 as select * from pg_user;
SELECT 7

--connect as superuser u8 and drop u2 user it throw error
-bash-3.2# ./psql -U u8
Password for user u8:
psql.bin (9.3.14)
Type "help" for help.

No entry for terminal type "xterm";
using dumb terminal settings.
postgres=# drop user u2;
ERROR: role "u2" cannot be dropped because some objects depend on it
DETAIL: owner of table t2
solution:
YOU CAN GIVE SOLUTION TWO WAYS THEY ARE
1.REASSIGN OWNED--user can deleted easily without affectd any own objects
2.OWNED BY -- Here two option os there one is restrict another is cascade.

1.REASSIGN OWNED METHOD
postgres=# \dt

Schema | Name | Type | Owner

u6 | | {}
u8 | Superuser, Create role, Create DB | {}

postgres=# REASSIGN OWNED BY u2 to u6;
REASSIGN OWNED

postgres=# drop user u2;
DROP ROLE

2.OWNED BY METHD 
syntax:
DROP OWNED BY name [, ...] [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]
HERE IS TWO TYPE
1.RESTRICT
2.CASCADE
--connect as u9 user and create some objects 
postgres=# create user u9 with password 'u9';
CREATE ROLE
-bash-3.2# ./psql -U u9
Password for user u9:
psql.bin (9.3.14)
Type "help" for help.

No entry for terminal type "xterm";
using dumb terminal settings.

postgres=> create table t5 as select * from pg_user;
SELECT 7

--connect as super user and delete u9 user
-bash-3.2# ./psql -U u8
Password for user u8:
psql.bin (9.3.14)
Type "help" for help.

No entry for terminal type "xterm";
using dumb terminal settings.
postgres=# drop user u9;
ERROR: role "u9" cannot be dropped because some objects depend on it
DETAIL: owner of table t5
Solution:
1.RESTRICT METHOD--DROP ONLY OWNERS OBJECTS NOT USER:
Refuse to drop the objects owned by a role if any other database objects depend on one of the affected objects. This is the default.
postgres=# \dt

Schema | Name | Type | Owner

u6 | | {}
u8 | Superuser, Create role, Create DB | {}
u9 | | {}
2.CASCADE METHOD--DROP ONLY OWNERS OBJECTS NOT USER:
Automatically drop objects that depend on the affected objects
 -bash-3.2# ./psql -U u9
Password for user u9:

Type "help" for help.

No entry for terminal type "xterm";
using dumb terminal settings.
