防止PostgreSQL中CIDR列上的重叠值

Question

Is there a constraint or some other PostgreSQL feature that prevents CIDR columns from having values that overlap?

For example:

192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.1.1/32

These could not exist together because 192.168.1.1/32 is contained in the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet.

Answer 1

Yes, that is easily done with an exclusion constraint.

CREATE TABLE networks (
   id integer GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY PRIMARY KEY,
   net cidr NOT NULL
);

ALTER TABLE networks ADD EXCLUDE USING gist (net inet_ops WITH &&);

INSERT INTO networks (net) VALUES ('192.168.1.0/24');
INSERT 0 1

INSERT INTO networks (net) VALUES ('192.168.1.1/32');
ERROR:  conflicting key value violates exclusion constraint "networks_net_excl"
DETAIL:  Key (net)=(192.168.1.1) conflicts with existing key (net)=(192.168.1.0/24).
