DROP FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER(7)                     PostgreSQL 16.2 Documentation

NAME
       DROP_FOREIGN_DATA_WRAPPER - remove a foreign-data wrapper

SYNOPSIS
       DROP FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER [ IF EXISTS ] name [, ...] [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]

DESCRIPTION
       DROP FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER removes an existing foreign-data wrapper. To
       execute this command, the current user must be the owner of the
       foreign-data wrapper.

PARAMETERS
       IF EXISTS
           Do not throw an error if the foreign-data wrapper does not exist. A
           notice is issued in this case.

       name
           The name of an existing foreign-data wrapper.

       CASCADE
           Automatically drop objects that depend on the foreign-data wrapper
           (such as foreign tables and servers), and in turn all objects that
           depend on those objects (see Section 5.14).

       RESTRICT
           Refuse to drop the foreign-data wrapper if any objects depend on
           it. This is the default.

EXAMPLES
       Drop the foreign-data wrapper dbi:

           DROP FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER dbi;

COMPATIBILITY
       DROP FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER conforms to ISO/IEC 9075-9 (SQL/MED). The IF
       EXISTS clause is a PostgreSQL extension.
