DROP_USER(7pg17)

💅 NAME 💅

DROP_USER — remove a database role. This is the manual page for DROP USER(7), straight out of the PostgreSQL 17.11 docs, bestie ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

DROP USER [ IF EXISTS ] name [, ...]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so DROP USER is simply an alternate spelling of DROP ROLE. that's it. that's the whole vibe. it's giving alias energy, no cap 💅

🦋 COMPATIBILITY 🦋

The DROP USER statement is a PostgreSQL extension. The SQL standard leaves the definition of users to the implementation. so yeah, that part is literally left up to each implementation — iconic behavior, honestly 🫶
