Hi,
SET DATESTYLE takes predefined keywords such as ISO or US as arguments,
but I can't find a way to specify a custom format string for
timestamps.
What I'd like to find is an equivalent to Oracle's
ALTER SESSION SET nls_date_format='DD/MM/YYYY HH24' for example,
where the format follows the sames rules than to_char and to_date.
This sets an implicit format for every subsequent text<->date
conversion.
Is there a way I could achieve that with postgres? A psql-only solution
would be good enough for me.
Thanks,
