Configuration Settings Functions

Configuration setting functions are used for querying and modifying configuration parameters during running.

• current_setting(setting_name)

  Description: Specifies the current setting.

  Return type: text

  Note: current_setting obtains the current setting of setting_name by query. It is equivalent to the SHOW statement. For example:

  1 2 3 4 5 6

  gaussdb=# SELECT current_setting('datestyle'); current_setting ----------------- ISO, MDY (1 row)

• set_working_grand_version_num_manually(tmp_version)

  Description: Upgrades new features of the database by switching the authorization version.

  Return type: void

• shell_in(type)

  Description: Inputs a route for the shell type that has not yet been filled.

  Return type: void

• shell_out(type)

  Description: Outputs a route for the shell type that has not yet been filled.

  Return type: void

• set_config(setting_name, new_value, is_local)

  Description: Sets the parameter and returns a new value.

  Return type: text

  Note: The set_config parameter sets the value of setting_name to new_value. If is_local is true, the new value applies only to the current transaction. If you want the new value to apply to the current session, use false instead. This function is equivalent to the SET statement. Example:

  1 2 3 4 5 6

  gaussdb=# SELECT set_config('log_statement_stats', 'off', false); set_config ------------ off (1 row)
