DROP EXTENSION

Removes an extension from a Cloudberry Database.

Synopsis

DROP EXTENSION [ IF EXISTS ] <name> [, ...] [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]

Description

DROP EXTENSION removes extensions from the database. Dropping an extension causes its component objects to be dropped as well.

信息

The supporting extension files that were installed to create the extension (for example, the library and .control files) are not deleted. The files must be manually removed from the Cloudberry Database hosts.

You must own the extension to use DROP EXTENSION.

Parameters

IF EXISTS

Do not throw an error if the extension does not exist. Cloudberry Database issues a notice in this case.

name

The name of an installed extension.

CASCADE

Automatically drop objects that depend on the extension, and in turn all objects that depend on those objects. Refer to the PostgreSQL Dependency Tracking documentation for more information.

提示

Before issuing a DROP EXTENSION with the CASCADE keyword, you should be aware of all object that depend on the extension to avoid unintended consequences.

RESTRICT

Refuse to drop an extension if any objects depend on it (other than its own member objects and other extensions listed in the same DROP command). This is the default.

Examples

To remove the extension hstore from the current database:

DROP EXTENSION hstore;

This command fails if any of the extension objects are in use in the database. For example, if a table is defined with columns of the hstore type. Add the CASCADE option to forcibly remove those dependent objects.

Compatibility

DROP EXTENSION is a Cloudberry Database extension.
