postgresql - 按日期范围分区 PostgreSQL 扫描所有分区

Question

我有一个每月分区的表(时间戳列)。

查询数据时，explain 显示当我使用日期函数构建日期时，所有分区都被查询，而当我使用硬编码日期时，仅扫描目标分区。

所以当这样查询时:

SELECT * FROM vw_comments 
      WHERE created >= '2019-4-1'
        AND created <= '2019-4-30'
limit 100;

它只扫描 1 个分区(1 个月，很好!)
但是为了让它更有活力，我传递了这样的东西(简化)

SELECT * FROM vw_comments 
      WHERE created >= (date_trunc('month', now()))::timestamp
        AND created <= (date_trunc('month', now() + interval '1 month') - interval '1 day') ::timestamp
limit 100;

上述日期方法与第一个查询的日期完全相同，但 EXPLAIN 显示所有分区都被扫描。

如何使它工作？

编辑:添加表定义并解释

应@a_horse_with_no_name 的要求，我添加了实际表并进行了解释。这样做后，我想出了更多的东西:进行联接时，动态日期不起作用。因此，在下面的查询中省略“用户”表可以使动态日期起作用。

Answer 1

找到(一个很好的)答案 here

因为规划器无法知道 now() 将在运行时产生什么时间，所以它会选择安全选项并扫描所有分区。因为我不想为每个分区配置新函数，所以我选择了一个创建日期的不可变函数:

CREATE FUNCTION now_immutable()
  RETURNS timestamp AS
$func$
SELECT now() AT TIME ZONE current_setting('TimeZone')
$func$  LANGUAGE sql IMMUTABLE;

所以现在我不使用 now()，而是将这个函数用于日期在事务中不改变的函数:

explain (analyse, buffers)
 SELECT comments.comment_id,
    comments.from_user_id,
    comments.fk_topic_id,
    comments.comment_text,
    comments.parent_comment_id,
    comments.created,
    users.user_name,
    users.picture_path
   FROM comments
     LEFT JOIN users ON comments.from_user_id = users.user_id
    WHERE comments.created >= (date_trunc('month', now_immutable()))
        AND comments.created <= (date_trunc('month', now_immutable() + interval '1 month') - interval '1 day') 
limit 100;

我还创建了另一个方便的函数来从代码months_back调用:

    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.months_back(months_back integer)
     RETURNS timestamp without time zone
     LANGUAGE sql
     IMMUTABLE
    AS $function$
        SELECT cast((date_trunc('month', now()) - (months_back || ' month')::interval)::timestamp AT TIME ZONE current_setting('TimeZone') as timestamp)  
    $function$;

这个在按月分区时很方便，因为如果您知道第一个评论是 3 个月前并且 postgres 将只搜索 3 个分区，则只需调用months_back(3) 就可以了，传递 0 将为您提供当月的开始。

希望这可以帮助某人。
