This project was spawned from our team migrating from oracle to postgres and we wanted to try and make the move from oracle to postgres as simple as possible and this has made our life much easier so we wanted to share and hopefully make other people life's that bit easier. It enables quick easy use of views inside the postgres database to make administration of the database just that little bit easier.
Sample output of the views
postgres=# select * from dbautils();

The views can be installed in any schema there is 4 inputs that are needed when running the install script, hostname, dbname, schema & schema password, this will then install the scripts in the database and schema inputted, example below.
cd postgres-dba-utils
$$ postgres-dba-utils $ ./dbautils_deployment.sh localhost postgres postgres password123
Fri 8 Apr 2022 15:11:02 BST DBA-Utils install starting on host - localhost
Fri 8 Apr 2022 15:11:02 BST Logfile for run /tmp/dbautils_deployment_20220408_151102.log
Fri 8 Apr 2022 15:11:02 BST DBA-Utils deployment complete
Fri 8 Apr 2022 15:11:02 BST Connect to database - psql -h localhost -U postgres --dbname postgres
Fri 8 Apr 2022 15:11:02 BST Run the follwing sql to see all the views - select * from dbautils();
Fri 8 Apr 2022 15:11:02 BST Clearing down old logfiles
Now you have the views installed you can connect to the instance and run the dbautils function that will show you all the views you can run.
$$ :postgres-dba-utils $ psql -h localhost -U postgres
