Обсуждение: retrieve statement from catalogs

Hi everybody, can anyone tell me if there's a way to retrieve the select
instruction executed from the catalogs, or maybe via some structure in a
trigger?

The reason is that i have some selects constructed on-the-fly (just part of
it) and i want to save that in a table in order to know what are the most
used for optimizing them.

Another reason for doing that is that i don't know all the selects in the
program nor the page and this is an easier solution than examine all the
code.

thanx in advance, el_vigia

You could turn on query logging and read the Postgres logs.

Use pg_ctl -l logfile option to start postmaster. It will log the things. And
set log_statement=true in postgresql.conf.

So there will be all the sql statements logged in.

Why?
And what about using the logfile for anylysis?
And if you really want a custom log of your
generated queries - why not just insert your
query literals after generation in your table?
Of course, it can be a big resource hog, but
you apparently want it :-)
