Re: documenting tables version control

Try this query and see if it fulfills your needs. Adjust the WHERE clause
as needed.

SELECT
table_catalog as database,
table_schema as schema,
table_name as table,
column_name as column,
ordinal_position as position,
column_default as default,
is_nullable,
data_type as type,
character_maximum_length as max_length
FROM information_schema.columns
WHERE table_name LIKE 'T%'
ORDER BY table_catalog,
table_schema,
table_name,
ordinal_position;
