Wiki / psql Commands

List the databases in the server and show their names, owners, character set encodings, and access privileges. If pattern is specified, only databases whose names match the pattern are listed. If x is appended to the command name, the results are displayed in expanded mode. If + is appended to the command name, database sizes, default tablespaces, and descriptions are also displayed. Size information is available for databases on which the current user has CONNECT privilege, or if the current user is a superuser or has privileges of the pg_read_all_stats role.
