</pre></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.12.5"><h2>Description</h2><p>
<code class="command">ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER</code> changes the
definition of a foreign-data wrapper. The first form of the
command changes the support functions or the generic options of the
foreign-data wrapper (at least one clause is required). The second
form changes the owner of the foreign-data wrapper.
</p><p>
Only superusers can alter foreign-data wrappers. Additionally,
only superusers can own foreign-data wrappers.

The name of an existing foreign-data wrapper.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="literal">HANDLER <em class="replaceable"><code>handler_function</code></em></code></span></dt><dd><p>
Specifies a new handler function for the foreign-data wrapper.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="literal">NO HANDLER</code></span></dt><dd><p>
This is used to specify that the foreign-data wrapper should no
longer have a handler function.
</p><p>
Note that foreign tables that use a foreign-data wrapper with no
handler cannot be accessed.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="literal">VALIDATOR <em class="replaceable"><code>validator_function</code></em></code></span></dt><dd><p>
Specifies a new validator function for the foreign-data wrapper.
</p><p>
Note that it is possible that pre-existing options of the foreign-data
wrapper, or of dependent servers, user mappings, or foreign tables, are
invalid according to the new validator. <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> does
not check for this. It is up to the user to make sure that these
options are correct before using the modified foreign-data wrapper.
However, any options specified in this <code class="command">ALTER FOREIGN DATA
WRAPPER</code> command will be checked using the new validator.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="literal">NO VALIDATOR</code></span></dt><dd><p>
This is used to specify that the foreign-data wrapper should no

</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><code class="literal">OPTIONS ( [ ADD | SET | DROP ] <em class="replaceable"><code>option</code></em> ['<em class="replaceable"><code>value</code></em>'] [, ... ] )</code></span></dt><dd><p>
Change options for the foreign-data
wrapper. <code class="literal">ADD</code>, <code class="literal">SET</code>, and <code class="literal">DROP</code>
specify the action to be performed. <code class="literal">ADD</code> is assumed
if no operation is explicitly specified. Option names must be
unique; names and values are also validated using the foreign
data wrapper's validator function, if any.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>new_owner</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>
The user name of the new owner of the foreign-data wrapper.

The new name for the foreign-data wrapper.
