Thanks for your new patch.

I tried your patch and found that the permission check for superuser didn't work.

For example:
postgres=# create role r1;
CREATE ROLE
postgres=# grant all privileges on database postgres to r1;
GRANT
postgres=# set role r1;
SET
postgres=> create schema s1;
CREATE SCHEMA
postgres=> create publication pub for all tables in schema s1;
CREATE PUBLICATION

Role r1 is not superuser, but this role could create publication for all tables in schema
successfully, I think it is related the following change. List schemaidlist was
not assigned yet. I think we should check it later.

@@ -165,6 +265,12 @@ CreatePublication(ParseState *pstate, CreatePublicationStmt *stmt)
 				(errcode(ERRCODE_INSUFFICIENT_PRIVILEGE),
 				 errmsg("must be superuser to create FOR ALL TABLES publication")));
 
+	/* FOR ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA requires superuser */
+	if (list_length(schemaidlist) > 0 && !superuser())
+		ereport(ERROR,
+				errcode(ERRCODE_INSUFFICIENT_PRIVILEGE),
+				errmsg("must be superuser to create FOR ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA publication"));

 	rel = table_open(PublicationRelationId, RowExclusiveLock);
 
 	/* Check if name is used */

Commits

  1. Include schema/table publications even with exclude options in dump.

  2. Rename some enums to use TABLE instead of REL.

  3. Add tap tests for the schema publications.

  4. Allow publishing the tables of schema.

  5. In pg_dump, use simplehash.h to look up dumpable objects by OID.
