38 ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW changes various auxiliary properties of an
39 existing materialized view.
40
41 You must own the materialized view to use ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW. To
42 change a materialized view's schema, you must also have CREATE
43 privilege on the new schema. To alter the owner, you must also be a
44 direct or indirect member of the new owning role, and that role must
45 have CREATE privilege on the materialized view's schema. (These
46 restrictions enforce that altering the owner doesn't do anything you
47 couldn't do by dropping and recreating the materialized view. However,
48 a superuser can alter ownership of any view anyway.)
49
50 The statement subforms and actions available for ALTER MATERIALIZED
51 VIEW are a subset of those available for ALTER TABLE, and have the same
52 meaning when used for materialized views. See the descriptions for
53 ALTER TABLE for details.
54
56 name
57 The name (optionally schema-qualified) of an existing materialized
58 view.
59
60 column_name
61 Name of a new or existing column.
62
63 extension_name
64 The name of the extension that the materialized view is to depend
65 on (or no longer dependent on, if NO is specified). A materialized
66 view that's marked as dependent on an extension is automatically
67 dropped when the extension is dropped.
68
69 new_column_name
70 New name for an existing column.
71
72 new_owner
73 The user name of the new owner of the materialized view.
74
75 new_name
76 The new name for the materialized view.
77
78 new_schema
79 The new schema for the materialized view.
80
82 To rename the materialized view foo to bar:
83
84 ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW foo RENAME TO bar;
85
87 ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW is a PostgreSQL extension.
