List columns with indexes in PostgreSQL

Question

I would like to get the columns that an index is on in PostgreSQL.

In MySQL you can use SHOW INDEXES FOR table and look at the Column_name

Answer 1

@cope360 's excellent answer, converted to use join syntax.

select t.relname as table_name
     , i.relname as index_name
     , array_to_string(array_agg(a.attname), ', ') as column_names
from pg_class t
join pg_index ix
on t.oid = ix.indrelid
join pg_class i
on i.oid = ix.indexrelid
join pg_attribute a
on a.attrelid = t.oid
and a.attnum = ANY(ix.indkey)
where t.relkind = 'r'
and t.relname like 'test%'
group by t.relname
       , i.relname
order by t.relname
       , i.relname
;
