Syntax

SHOW FUNCTIONS [LIKE pattern [ESCAPE escapeChar]];

Description

Displays the definitions of all built-in functions.

Example

SHOW functions;
 
-- Use the LIKE clause.
show functions like 'boo_%';
 Function | Return Type | Argument Types | Function Type | Deterministic | Description 
----------|-------------|----------------|---------------|---------------|-------------
 bool_and | boolean     | boolean        | aggregate     | true          |             
 bool_or  | boolean     | boolean        | aggregate     | true          |             
(2 rows)

-- If a character in the matching character string conflicts with the wildcard, you can specify an escape character to identify the character. For example, to query all tables whose table name prefix is t_ in the default schema, set the escape character to \.
SHOW FUNCTIONS LIKE 'array\_%' escape '\';
