​What stops somebody from doing:

CREATE TABLE foo (filler text primary key default null, realcol1 int, realcol2 text);

And then just never bother to ever insert anything into the column FILLER? It fulfills your stated requirement​ of every table having a

Then you would get this:

test=# CREATE TABLE foo (filler text primary key default null, realcol1 int, realcol2 text);
CREATE TABLE
test=# insert into  foo (realcol1, realcol2) values (1, 'test');
ERROR:  null value in column "filler" violates not-null constraint
DETAIL:  Failing row contains (null, 1, test).


primary key. Of course, you could amend the policy to say a "non-NULL primary key".

As Adrian pointed out, by definition, PK's create a constraint which are NOT NULLABLE;

Here is the SQL to check for tables with no primary key.

SELECT n.nspname,
               c.relname as table,
               c.reltuples::bigint
   FROM pg_class c
     JOIN pg_namespace n ON (n.oid =c.relnamespace )
 WHERE relkind = 'r' AND
               relhaspkey = FALSE
ORDER BY n.nspname, c.relname;
