Qual è l'equivalente di "descrivi tabella" in SQL Server?

Ho un database SQL Server e voglio sapere quali colonne e tipi ha. Preferirei farlo tramite una query piuttosto che utilizzare una GUI come Enterprise Manager. C'è un modo per fare questo?

È possibile utilizzare la procedura memorizzata sp_columns :

exec sp_columns MyTable

Esistono alcuni metodi per ottenere metadati su una tabella:

EXEC sp_help tablename

Restituirà diversi set di risultati, descrivendo la tabella, le colonne e i vincoli.

Le INFORMATION_SCHEMAviste ti daranno le informazioni che desideri, sebbene sfortunatamente devi interrogare le viste e unirle manualmente.

Nel caso in cui non si desideri utilizzare Proc memorizzato, ecco una semplice versione della query

select * 
  from information_schema.columns 
 where table_name = 'aspnet_Membership'
 order by ordinal_position

Puoi usare quanto segue

sp_help tablename

Esempio: sp_help Cliente

OPPURE Utilizzare il collegamento

• selezionare la tabella premere Alt + F1

Esempio: cliente premere Alt + F1

Usa questa query

Select * From INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS Where TABLE_NAME = 'TABLENAME'

Oltre ai modi mostrati in altre risposte, puoi usare

SELECT TOP 0 * FROM table_name

Questo ti darà il nome di ogni colonna senza risultati in esse e si completa quasi istantaneamente con un sovraccarico minimo.

Si prega di utilizzare la seguente query sql; questo ha funzionato per il mio caso.

select * FROM   INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Columns where table_name = 'tablename';

Seleziona la tabella e premi Alt+ F1,

mostrerà tutte le informazioni sulla tabella come nome colonna, tipo di dati, chiavi ecc.

Ho scritto un sql * più DESC (RIBE) come select (visualizza anche i commenti della colonna) in t-sql:

USE YourDB
GO

DECLARE @objectName NVARCHAR(128) = 'YourTable';

SELECT
  a.[NAME]
 ,a.[TYPE]
 ,a.[CHARSET]
 ,a.[COLLATION]
 ,a.[NULLABLE]
 ,a.[DEFAULT]
 ,b.[COMMENTS]
-- ,a.[ORDINAL_POSITION]

  (
    SELECT
      COLUMN_NAME                                     AS [NAME]
     ,CASE DATA_TYPE
        WHEN 'char'       THEN DATA_TYPE  + '(' + CAST(CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH AS VARCHAR) + ')'
        WHEN 'numeric'    THEN DATA_TYPE  + '(' + CAST(NUMERIC_PRECISION AS VARCHAR) + ', ' + CAST(NUMERIC_SCALE AS VARCHAR) + ')'

        ELSE DATA_TYPE
      END                                             AS [TYPE]
     ,CHARACTER_SET_NAME                              AS [CHARSET]

     ,COLUMN_DEFAULT                                  AS [DEFAULT]
     ,ORDINAL_POSITION
    FROM   
      INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
    WHERE

  ) b

La suddetta selezione può essere utilizzata in una procedura memorizzata contrassegnata dal sistema e può essere richiamata da qualsiasi database dell'istanza in modo semplice:

EXEC sys.sp_MS_marksystemobject sp_desc
GO

Per eseguire il tipo di procedura:

EXEC sp_desc 'YourDB.YourSchema.YourTable';

Se si desidera ottenere una descrizione di un oggetto del database corrente (e dello schema), digitare semplicemente:

EXEC sp_desc 'YourTable';

Poiché sp_desc è una procedura contrassegnata dal sistema, è anche possibile lasciare anche il comando exec (non raccomandato comunque):

sp_desc 'YourTable';

L'equivalente di SQL Server al describecomando di Oracle è il proc memorizzatosp_help

Il describecomando ti dà le informazioni sui nomi delle colonne, i tipi, la lunghezza, ecc.

In SQL Server, supponiamo che tu voglia descrivere una tabella 'mytable' nello schema 'myschema' nel database 'mydb', puoi fare quanto segue:

USE mydb;
exec sp_help 'myschema.mytable';

Puoi usare sp_help 'TableName'

Il problema con queste risposte è che ti mancano le informazioni chiave. Anche se questo è un po 'disordinato, questa è una versione rapida che mi è venuta in mente per assicurarmi che contenga le stesse informazioni visualizzate da MySQL Describe.

Select SC.name AS 'Field', ISC.DATA_TYPE AS 'Type', ISC.CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH AS 'Length', SC.IS_NULLABLE AS 'Null', I.is_primary_key AS 'Key', SC.is_identity AS 'Identity'
From sys.columns AS SC 
LEFT JOIN sys.index_columns AS IC
ON IC.object_id = OBJECT_ID('dbo.Expenses') AND 
IC.column_id = SC.column_id
LEFT JOIN sys.indexes AS I 
ON I.object_id = OBJECT_ID('dbo.Expenses') AND 
IC.index_id = I.index_id
LEFT JOIN information_schema.columns ISC
ON ISC.TABLE_NAME = 'Expenses'
AND ISC.COLUMN_NAME = SC.name
WHERE SC.object_id = OBJECT_ID('dbo.Expenses')

Uscita campione

Se stai usando FirstResponderKit del team di Brent Ozar, puoi anche eseguire questa query:

exec sp_blitzindex @tablename='MyTable'

Restituirà tutte le informazioni sulla tabella:

• gli indici con le loro statistiche di utilizzo (letture, scritture, blocchi, ecc.), lo spazio utilizzato e altro
• indici mancanti
• colonne
• chiavi esterne
• contenuti statistici

Ovviamente non è un sistema e una stp così universale come sp_help o sp_columns , ma restituisce tutte le informazioni possibili sul tuo tavolo e penso che valga la pena crearlo nel tuo ambiente e menzionarlo qui.

Basta fare doppio clic sul nome della tabella e premere Alt + F1
