Foreign Data Wrapper Helper Functions</h2></div></div></div><p>
Several helper functions are exported from the core server so that
authors of foreign data wrappers can get easy access to attributes of
FDW-related objects, such as FDW options.
To use any of these functions, you need to include the header file
<code class="filename">foreign/foreign.h</code> in your source file.
That header also defines the struct types that are returned by
these functions.
</p><p>
</p><pre class="programlisting">
ForeignDataWrapper *
GetForeignDataWrapperExtended(Oid fdwid, bits16 flags);
</pre><p>
This function returns a <code class="structname">ForeignDataWrapper</code>
object for the foreign-data wrapper with the given OID. A
<code class="structname">ForeignDataWrapper</code> object contains properties
of the FDW (see <code class="filename">foreign/foreign.h</code> for details).
<code class="structfield">flags</code> is a bitwise-or'd bit mask indicating
an extra set of options. It can take the value
<code class="literal">FDW_MISSING_OK</code>, in which case a <code class="literal">NULL</code>
result is returned to the caller instead of an error for an undefined
object.
</p><p>
</p><pre class="programlisting">
ForeignDataWrapper *
GetForeignDataWrapper(Oid fdwid);
</pre><p>
This function returns a <code class="structname">ForeignDataWrapper</code>
object for the foreign-data wrapper with the given OID. A
<code class="structname">ForeignDataWrapper</code> object contains properties
of the FDW (see <code class="filename">foreign/foreign.h</code> for details).
</p><p>
</p><pre class="programlisting">
ForeignServer *
GetForeignServerExtended(Oid serverid, bits16 flags);
</pre><p>
This function returns a <code class="structname">ForeignServer</code> object
for the foreign server with the given OID. A
<code class="structname">ForeignServer</code> object contains properties
of the server (see <code class="filename">foreign/foreign.h</code> for details).
<code class="structfield">flags</code> is a bitwise-or'd bit mask indicating
an extra set of options. It can take the value
<code class="literal">FSV_MISSING_OK</code>, in which case a <code class="literal">NULL</code>
result is returned to the caller instead of an error for an undefined
object.
</p><p>
</p><pre class="programlisting">
ForeignServer *
GetForeignServer(Oid serverid);
</pre><p>
This function returns a <code class="structname">ForeignServer</code> object
for the foreign server with the given OID. A
<code class="structname">ForeignServer</code> object contains properties
of the server (see <code class="filename">foreign/foreign.h</code> for details).
</p><p>
</p><pre class="programlisting">
UserMapping *
GetUserMapping(Oid userid, Oid serverid);
</pre><p>
This function returns a <code class="structname">UserMapping</code> object for
the user mapping of the given role on the given server. (If there is no
mapping for the specific user, it will return the mapping for
<code class="literal">PUBLIC</code>, or throw error if there is none.) A
<code class="structname">UserMapping</code> object contains properties of the
user mapping (see <code class="filename">foreign/foreign.h</code> for details).
</p><p>
</p><pre class="programlisting">
ForeignTable *
GetForeignTable(Oid relid);
</pre><p>
This function returns a <code class="structname">ForeignTable</code> object for
the foreign table with the given OID. A
<code class="structname">ForeignTable</code> object contains properties of the
foreign table (see <code class="filename">foreign/foreign.h</code> for details).
</p><p>
</p><pre class="programlisting">
List *
GetForeignColumnOptions(Oid relid, AttrNumber attnum);
</pre><p>
This function returns the per-column FDW options for the column with the
given foreign table OID and attribute number, in the form of a list of
<code class="structname">DefElem</code>. NIL is returned if the column has no
options.
</p><p>
Some object types have name-based lookup functions in addition to the
OID-based ones:
</p><p>
</p><pre class="programlisting">
ForeignDataWrapper *
GetForeignDataWrapperByName(const char *name, bool missing_ok);
</pre><p>
This function returns a <code class="structname">ForeignDataWrapper</code>
object for the foreign-data wrapper with the given name. If the wrapper
is not found, return NULL if missing_ok is true, otherwise raise an
error.
</p><p>
</p><pre class="programlisting">
ForeignServer *
GetForeignServerByName(const char *name, bool missing_ok);
</pre><p>
This function returns a <code class="structname">ForeignServer</code> object
for the foreign server with the given name. If the server is not found,
return NULL if missing_ok is true, otherwise raise an error.
