Обсуждение: Querying database size

Is there a query which can be issued which will return the size of a
database?
I see that in pgadmin you can get the values on a per table manner.
I have looced at the pg_catalog schema, but to be truthful I cannot
figure out how to get that information.

TIA,

Benjamin

If you have 8.1.x you can do something like this:

SELECT pg_size_pretty(database_size('<database name>'));

example:

SELECT pg_size_pretty(database_size('testdb'));

If you have another version of postgres, check out the dbsize contrib module.
