Обсуждение: search_path wildcard?
This doesn't work, and I've found nothing similar:
ALTER ROLE foo SET SEARCH_PATH = '*';Is there a single SQL statement which will generate a search path based on information_schema.schemata, or do I have to write an anonymous DO procedure?
SELECT schema_name FROM information_schema.schemata WHERE schema_name != 'information_schema' AND schema_name NOT LIKE 'pg_%';

Correct, you cannot do that.

That would be a helpful feature for administrators, when there are multiple schemas in multiple databases, on multiple servers: superusers get ALTER ROLE foo SET SEARCH_PATH = '*'; and they're done with it.

... and they're pwned within five minutes by any user with the wits
to create a trojan-horse function or operator. Generally speaking,
you want admins to run with a minimal search path not a maximal one.

Missing tables when running "\t" is a bigger hassle.

It can be pretty dangerous, because you don't specify order of schemas

what is hard on \dt *.*
or you can define own
dtall = '\\dt *.*'
:dtall
The problem is not on search path, but maybe on design backslash commands - but there should be some level of consistency
