Table-valued functions
A table-valued function (TVF) returns a set of rows. You can use a table-valued function anywhere you can use a table. For example, the generate_series
TVF generates a range of numbers as rows.
The following code example generates a series of numbers from 1 to 100 and selects each number as x from the resulting series:
SELECT x FROM generate_series(1, 100) r(x);
You can use the list_objects
TVF to explore files on Amazon S3. Use functions such as read_parquet
to read data from Amazon S3.
