Sequences
- Specify datatype (
SMALLINT | INT | BIGINT
) - Default is
BIGINT
List all sequence

CREATE SEQUENCE IF NOT EXISTS test_sequence AS bigint;
SELECT NEXTVAL('test_sequence');
nextval
---------
1
SELECT CURRVAL('test_sequence');
currval
---------
1
SELECT SETVAL('test_sequence',3);
setval
--------
3
-- set this value after the nextval is called,
-- check using the currval cmd
SELECT SETVAL('test_sequence',300,false);
-- CHECKING CURRENT VALUE
SELECT CURRVAL('test_sequence');
currval
---------

ALTER SEQUENCE test_sequence RESTART WITH 100;
SELECT NEXTVAL('test_sequence');
nextval
