PostgreSQL: Script to find information about the Locks held by Open Transactions (pg_locks)

This article is half-done without your Comment! *** Please share your thoughts via Comment ***

In this post, I am sharing one script to find information about the Locks which are held by Open Transactions of PostgreSQL Database Server.

Database Theory: What is Timeout, Lock, Block, and Deadlock in a Database System?

PostgreSQL view pg_locks contains the main information about the all types of lock of Database Server.
It contains one row per active lockable object.

This script is very helpful to all PostgreSQL Database Administrators.

Below is a script:

,psa.query AS SQLQuery
,pl.locktype
,pl.tuple AS TupleNumber
,pl.mode AS LockMode
,pl.granted -- True if lock is held, false if lock is awaited
FROM pg_locks AS pl
LEFT JOIN pg_stat_activity AS psa
ON pl.pid = psa.pid
LEFT JOIN pg_class AS ps
ON pl.relation = ps.oid
