create table in postgreSQL

Question

I do not understand what is wrong with this query? Query tool does not want to create a table in PostgreSQL.

CREATE TABLE article (
article_id bigint(20) NOT NUL         


        

Answer 1

First the bigint(20) not null auto_increment will not work, simply use bigserial primary key. Then datetime is timestamp in PostgreSQL. All in all:

CREATE TABLE article (
    article_id bigserial primary key,
    article_name varchar(20) NOT NULL,
    article_desc text NOT NULL,
    date_added timestamp default NULL
);
