FEATURE REQUEST
Postgresql supports CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW
(https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/sql-createview.html)
Postgres limitates the replace view function to only add new columns.

CockroachDB could support this sqlstatement too, as it's very convenient way to replace views.
A Workaround would be dropping and creating a view in a transaction. (currently blocked by #12123)

Importance: Nice-to-have postgresql compatibility

@godofdream thanks for your interest in CockroachDB.

Do you have an example app or framework in mind that already uses this feature? Where compatibility is blocked because CockroachDB does not support it?

@knz Currently we use Postgres with the replace view function in a closed-source project. We use the replace as function for migrating to newer versions of the view. It's syntactic sugar as it could be done with a transaction alternativly.

Besides our usecase i didn't find any opensource projects using the create or replace view feature of postgres.

@a-robinson marked CREATE OR REPLACE as TODO in the create_view code

// TODO(a-robinson): Support CREATE OR REPLACE commands.

@godofdream thanks for your explanation. I wanted to hear the context of your request so that we know how to prioritize this appropriately.

@awoods187 This seems like a fairly straightforward ask. Can we get this into 20.1?

knz commented Sep 24, 2019

(Not completely straighforward, we still have to check the type compatibility, and update all the references.)

@BramGruneir

Yes, but that would just follow the alter view command that already works.

oh I did not know that alter view was already a thing.

Ah, we only support rename in alter view :( Let's get that fixed for 20.1 first.

The spreadsheet we discussed is unwieldy - hard to edit and impossible to keep
up to date. If we write down blacklists in code, then we can use an approach
like this to always have an up to date aggregation.

So far it seems like there's just a lot of unknowns to categorize still.

The output today:

Folks, is there a way to see from an issue like this in what version the feature will ship?

knz commented Apr 24, 2020

  1. find the PR number that addresses the issue
  2. check out each release-XX branch in turn
  3. in each branch, search for that PR number in the git log

If a branch has the PR, then that release has the fix.
