24.1.2. Base de dados

24.1.2.1. Export to PostgreSQL

Exports a vector layer to a PostgreSQL database, creating a new relation. If a relation with the same name exists, it can be removed before the new relation is created. Prior to this a connection between QGIS and the PostgreSQL database has to be created (see eg Creating a stored Connection).

24.1.2.3. Package layers

24.1.2.4. PostgreSQL execute and load SQL

Allows a SQL database query to be performed on a PostgreSQL database connected to QGIS and loads the result. The algorithm won’t create a new layer: it is designed to run queries on the layer itself.

Example

  1. Set all the values of an existing field to a fixed value. The SQL query string will be:

    UPDATE your_table SET field_to_update=20;
    

    In the example above, the values of the field field_to_update of the table your_table will be all set to 20.

  2. Create a new area column and calculate the area of each feature with the ST_AREA PostGIS function.

    -- Create the new column "area" on the table your_table"
    ALTER TABLE your_table ADD COLUMN area double precision;
    -- Update the "area" column and calculate the area of each feature:
    UPDATE your_table SET area=ST_AREA(geom);
