DROP EXTENSION — remove an extension
DROP EXTENSION [ IF EXISTS ] name
[, ...] [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]
DROP EXTENSION
removes extensions from the database.
Dropping an extension causes its component objects to be dropped as well.
You must own the extension to use DROP EXTENSION
.
IF EXISTS
Do not throw an error if the extension does not exist. A notice is issued in this case.
name
The name of an installed extension.
CASCADE
Automatically drop objects that depend on the extension, and in turn all objects that depend on those objects (see Section 5.14).
RESTRICT
Refuse to drop the extension if any objects depend on it (other than
its own member objects and other extensions listed in the same
DROP
command). This is the default.
To remove the extension hstore
from the current
database:
DROP EXTENSION hstore;
This command will fail if any of hstore
's objects
are in use in the database, for example if any tables have columns
of the hstore
type. Add the CASCADE
option to
forcibly remove those dependent objects as well.
DROP EXTENSION
is a LightDB
