Synopsis

listLanguages()

Description

Return procedural languages installed in the current database (e.g. plpgsql, plpython3u) with owner, trusted/procedural flags, handler function, and description.

Parameters

None of its own.

Also accepts connection, instance, group, described once under arguments every tool takes.

Output

Keyed by language name; each value is its handler, trust and ownership. An absent extension or a missing grant is reported as {error, hint} in place of the map.

Scope

A physical replica is byte-identical here, so asking each member of a replication group adds nothing.
