花园里的花真多啊，多的就像天上的星星，密密麻麻；花园里的花真彩啊，一枝枝花朵五彩斑斓，向天边的霞光，那么耀眼，像高空的彩虹那么绚烂；花园里的花真香啊，香的让你感觉到自己仿佛在画中游玩一样，这时有人拍我一下，我才知道自己在花园里游玩。
接着上篇文章《解析SQL 表结构信息查询 含主外键、自增长》里面提到了INFORMATION_SCHEMA视图，其实到了SQL 2005微软都主推大家使用INFORMATION_SCHEMA系统视图，而不是在使用sys东东了，当然目前还是有许多信息只能通过sys视图来查询。这里我们还是以查询表结果信息为例来说明一些主要的INFORMATION_SCHEMA视图的使用。首先我们需要查询列的信息，这需要用到[INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[COLUMNS]系统视图来查询数据列的信息，SQL 如下：
SELECT c.TABLE_SCHEMA ,
c.TABLE_NAME ,
c.COLUMN_NAME ,
c.DATA_TYPE ,
c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH ,
c.COLUMN_DEFAULT ,
c.IS_NULLABLE ,
c.NUMERIC_PRECISION ,
c.NUMERIC_SCALE
FROM [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[COLUMNS] c
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'Address'
运行结果如下：
我们都知道我们在定义列的时候一般的使用都是varchar(50)之类的信息，这里我们需要整合DATA_TYPE和CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH信息，当CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH为-1时即使说没有指定具体最大长度，数据的指定长度信息是max，而numeric需要整合NUMERIC_PRECISION、NUMERIC_SCALE信息。修改后的SQL如下：
SELECT c.TABLE_SCHEMA ,
c.TABLE_NAME ,
c.COLUMN_NAME ,
CASE WHEN ( ( CHARINDEX('char', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
OR CHARINDEX('binary', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
)
AND c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH <> -1
)
THEN c.DATA_TYPE + '('
+ CAST(c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH AS VARCHAR(4)) + ')'
WHEN ( ( CHARINDEX('CHAR', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
OR CHARINDEX('binary', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
)
AND c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH = -1
) THEN c.DATA_TYPE + '(max)'
WHEN ( CHARINDEX('numeric', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0 )
THEN c.DATA_TYPE + '(' + CAST(c.NUMERIC_PRECISION AS VARCHAR(4))
+ ',' + CAST(c.NUMERIC_SCALE AS VARCHAR(4)) + ')'
ELSE c.DATA_TYPE
END AS DATA_TYPE ,
c.COLUMN_DEFAULT ,
c.IS_NULLABLE ,
c.COLUMN_DEFAULT
FROM [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[COLUMNS] c
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'Address'
ORDER BY c.ORDINAL_POSITION
运行结果如图：
现在我们需要标记这张表的那些列是主键，那些列是外键，要查询表的主、外键信息需要用到[INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[TABLE_CONSTRAINTS]和[INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[KEY_COLUMN_USAGE] 系统视图
运行结果如图：
修改我们先前的SQL语句：
SELECT c.TABLE_SCHEMA ,
c.TABLE_NAME ,
c.COLUMN_NAME ,
CASE WHEN ( ( CHARINDEX('char', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
OR CHARINDEX('binary', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
)
AND c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH <> -1
)
THEN c.DATA_TYPE + '('
+ CAST(c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH AS VARCHAR(4)) + ')'
WHEN ( ( CHARINDEX('CHAR', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
OR CHARINDEX('binary', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
)
AND c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH = -1
) THEN c.DATA_TYPE + '(max)'
WHEN ( CHARINDEX('numeric', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0 )
THEN c.DATA_TYPE + '(' + CAST(c.NUMERIC_PRECISION AS VARCHAR(4))
+ ',' + CAST(c.NUMERIC_SCALE AS VARCHAR(4)) + ')'
ELSE c.DATA_TYPE
END AS DATA_TYPE ,
c.COLUMN_DEFAULT ,
c.IS_NULLABLE ,
c.COLUMN_DEFAULT ,
CASE WHEN tc.CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'PRIMARY KEY' THEN 'YES'
ELSE 'NO'
END AS IS_PRIMARY_KEY ,
CASE WHEN tc.CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'FOREIGN KEY' THEN 'YES'
ELSE 'NO'
END AS IS_FOREIGN_KEY
FROM [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[COLUMNS] c
LEFT JOIN [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[KEY_COLUMN_USAGE] kcu ON kcu.TABLE_SCHEMA = c.TABLE_SCHEMA
AND kcu.TABLE_NAME = c.TABLE_NAME
AND kcu.COLUMN_NAME = c.COLUMN_NAME
LEFT JOIN [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[TABLE_CONSTRAINTS] tc ON tc.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA = kcu.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA
AND tc.CONSTRAINT_NAME = kcu.CONSTRAINT_NAME
WHERE c.TABLE_NAME = 'Address'
ORDER BY c.ORDINAL_POSITION
运行结果如图：
现在我们已经知道那些列是主键那些是外键，接下来的就是外键列所关联的外检表信息，这里需要用到[INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[REFERENTIAL_CONSTRAINTS]系统视图，运行该视图如下：
所以修改我们的SQL如下：
SELECT c.TABLE_SCHEMA ,
c.TABLE_NAME ,
c.COLUMN_NAME ,
CASE WHEN ( ( CHARINDEX('char', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
OR CHARINDEX('binary', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
)
AND c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH <> -1
)
THEN c.DATA_TYPE + '('
+ CAST(c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH AS VARCHAR(4)) + ')'
WHEN ( ( CHARINDEX('CHAR', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
OR CHARINDEX('binary', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
)
AND c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH = -1
) THEN c.DATA_TYPE + '(max)'
WHEN ( CHARINDEX('numeric', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0 )
THEN c.DATA_TYPE + '(' + CAST(c.NUMERIC_PRECISION AS VARCHAR(4))
+ ',' + CAST(c.NUMERIC_SCALE AS VARCHAR(4)) + ')'
ELSE c.DATA_TYPE
END AS DATA_TYPE ,
c.COLUMN_DEFAULT ,
c.IS_NULLABLE ,
c.COLUMN_DEFAULT ,
CASE WHEN tc.CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'PRIMARY KEY' THEN 'YES'
ELSE 'NO'
END AS IS_PRIMARY_KEY ,
CASE WHEN tc.CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'FOREIGN KEY' THEN 'YES'
ELSE 'NO'
END AS IS_FOREIGN_KEY,
fkcu.COLUMN_NAME AS FOREIGN_KEY,
fkcu.TABLE_NAME AS FOREIGN_TABLE
FROM [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[COLUMNS] c
LEFT JOIN [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[KEY_COLUMN_USAGE] kcu ON kcu.TABLE_SCHEMA = c.TABLE_SCHEMA
AND kcu.TABLE_NAME = c.TABLE_NAME
AND kcu.COLUMN_NAME = c.COLUMN_NAME
LEFT JOIN [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[TABLE_CONSTRAINTS] tc ON tc.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA = kcu.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA
AND tc.CONSTRAINT_NAME = kcu.CONSTRAINT_NAME
LEFT JOIN [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[REFERENTIAL_CONSTRAINTS] fc ON kcu.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA = fc.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA
AND kcu.CONSTRAINT_NAME = fc.CONSTRAINT_NAME
LEFT JOIN [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[KEY_COLUMN_USAGE] fkcu ON fkcu.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA = fc.UNIQUE_CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA
AND fkcu.CONSTRAINT_NAME = fc.UNIQUE_CONSTRAINT_NAME
WHERE c.TABLE_NAME = 'Address'
ORDER BY c.ORDINAL_POSITION
运行结果如图：
我们的查询结果中显示了太多的NULL，看着不怎么舒服，还有我们的表名应该显示一次就可以，修改SQL如下：
运行结果如图：
SELECT CASE WHEN c.ORDINAL_POSITION = 1
THEN c.TABLE_SCHEMA + '.' + c.TABLE_NAME
ELSE ''
END AS TABLE_NAME ,
c.COLUMN_NAME ,
CASE WHEN ( ( CHARINDEX('char', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
OR CHARINDEX('binary', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
)
AND c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH <> -1
)
THEN c.DATA_TYPE + '('
+ CAST(c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH AS VARCHAR(4)) + ')'
WHEN ( ( CHARINDEX('CHAR', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
OR CHARINDEX('binary', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0
)
AND c.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH = -1
) THEN c.DATA_TYPE + '(max)'
WHEN ( CHARINDEX('numeric', c.DATA_TYPE) > 0 )
THEN c.DATA_TYPE + '(' + CAST(c.NUMERIC_PRECISION AS VARCHAR(4))
+ ',' + CAST(c.NUMERIC_SCALE AS VARCHAR(4)) + ')'
ELSE c.DATA_TYPE
END AS DATA_TYPE ,
ISNULL(c.COLUMN_DEFAULT, '') AS COLUMN_DEFAULT ,
CASE WHEN c.IS_NULLABLE = 'YES' THEN '√'
ELSE ''
END IS_NULLABLE ,
CASE WHEN tc.CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'PRIMARY KEY' THEN '√'
ELSE ''
END AS IS_PRIMARY_KEY ,
CASE WHEN tc.CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'FOREIGN KEY' THEN '√'
ELSE ''
END AS IS_FOREIGN_KEY ,
ISNULL(fkcu.COLUMN_NAME, '') AS FOREIGN_KEY ,
ISNULL(fkcu.TABLE_NAME, '') AS FOREIGN_TABLE
FROM [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[COLUMNS] c
LEFT JOIN [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[KEY_COLUMN_USAGE] kcu ON kcu.TABLE_SCHEMA = c.TABLE_SCHEMA
AND kcu.TABLE_NAME = c.TABLE_NAME
AND kcu.COLUMN_NAME = c.COLUMN_NAME
LEFT JOIN [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[TABLE_CONSTRAINTS] tc ON tc.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA = kcu.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA
AND tc.CONSTRAINT_NAME = kcu.CONSTRAINT_NAME
LEFT JOIN [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[REFERENTIAL_CONSTRAINTS] fc ON kcu.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA = fc.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA
AND kcu.CONSTRAINT_NAME = fc.CONSTRAINT_NAME
LEFT JOIN [INFORMATION_SCHEMA].[KEY_COLUMN_USAGE] fkcu ON fkcu.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA = fc.UNIQUE_CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA
AND fkcu.CONSTRAINT_NAME = fc.UNIQUE_CONSTRAINT_NAME
WHERE c.TABLE_NAME = 'Address'
ORDER BY c.ORDINAL_POSITION
有不对的地方还请大家拍砖！
本文探讨SQL如何利用INFORMATION_SCHEMA系统视图如何获取表的主外键信息到此结束。人们总是对陌生人很宽容，对熟悉的人很挑剔。小编再次感谢大家对我们的支持！
