When I execute a file containing SQL commands with psql -f
, I get output like this (truncated):
CREATE DOMAIN
CREATE TABLE
CREATE TABLE
INSERT 0 1
INSERT 0 1
INSERT 0 1
What do the numbers 0 and 1 mean? (I think 1 is the number of rows modified. But 0?) I can't find it in PostgreSQL's official documentation or anywhere else.
CodePudding user response:
This is documented with the INSERT command
On successful completion, an INSERT command returns a command tag of the form
INSERT oid count
The count is the number of rows inserted or updated. oid is always 0 (it used to be the OID assigned to the inserted row if count was exactly one and the target table was declared WITH OIDS and 0 otherwise, but creating a table WITH OIDS is not supported anymore).
