The pg_extension system catalogs provides information about CockroachDB extensions.

This page describes the pg_extension system catalog schema. For information about supported CREATE EXTENSION statements and PostgreSQL extension-compatible functionality, see SQL Feature Support > PostgreSQL extensions.

Data exposed by `pg_extension`

In CockroachDB , pg_extension contains the following tables, all of which provide information about CockroachDB’s spatial extension:

geography_columns
geometry_columns
spatial_ref_sys

pg_extension tables are read-only.

To see the list of tables in pg_extension for the current database, use the following SHOW TABLES statement:

> SHOW TABLES FROM pg_extension;

  schema_name  |    table_name     | type  | owner | estimated_row_count
---------------+-------------------+-------+-------+----------------------
  pg_extension | geography_columns | table | NULL  |                NULL
  pg_extension | geometry_columns  | table | NULL  |                NULL
  pg_extension | spatial_ref_sys   | table | NULL  |                NULL
(3 rows)

Querying `pg_extension` tables

You can run SELECT queries on the tables in pg_extension.

To ensure that you can view all of the tables in pg_extension, query the tables as a user with admin privileges.

Unless specified otherwise, queries to pg_extension assume the current database.

For example, to return the pg_extension table with additional information about indexes in the movr database, you can query the pg_extension.pg_indexes table:

> SELECT * FROM movr.pg_extension.pg_indexes;
