.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
droplang
is a utility for removing an existing procedural language from a
PostgreSQL
database\&.
.PP
droplang
is just a wrapper around the
DROP EXTENSION (\fBDROP_EXTENSION\fR(7))
SQL command\&.

.PP
droplang
is deprecated and may be removed in a future
PostgreSQL
release\&. Direct use of the
\fBDROP EXTENSION\fR
command is recommended instead\&.
.sp .5v
.RE
.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
droplang
accepts the following command line arguments:
.PP
\fIlangname\fR
.RS 4
Specifies the name of the procedural language to be removed\&. (This name is lower\-cased\&.)
.RE
.PP
\fB[\-d]\fR\fB \fR\fB\fIdbname\fR\fR, \fB[\-\-dbname=]\fR\fB\fIdbname\fR\fR
.RS 4
Specifies from which database the language should be removed\&. The default is to use the database with the same name as the current system user\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-e\fR, \fB\-\-echo\fR
.RS 4
Display SQL commands as they are executed\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-l\fR, \fB\-\-list\fR
.RS 4
Show a list of already installed languages in the target database\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-V\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR
.RS 4
Print the
droplang
version and exit\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-?\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR
.RS 4
Show help about
droplang
command line arguments, and exit\&.
.RE
.PP
droplang
also accepts the following command line arguments for connection parameters:
.PP
\fB\-h \fR\fB\fIhost\fR\fR, \fB\-\-host=\fR\fB\fIhost\fR\fR
.RS 4
Specifies the host name of the machine on which the server is running\&. If host begins with a slash, it is used as the directory for the Unix domain socket\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-p \fR\fB\fIport\fR\fR, \fB\-\-port=\fR\fB\fIport\fR\fR
.RS 4
Specifies the Internet TCP/IP port or local Unix domain socket file extension on which the server is listening for connections\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-U \fR\fB\fIusername\fR\fR, \fB\-\-username=\fR\fB\fIusername\fR\fR
.RS 4
User name to connect as\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-w\fR, \fB\-\-no\-password\fR
.RS 4
Never issue a password prompt\&. If the server requires password authentication and a password is not available by other means such as a
\&.pgpass
file, the connection attempt will fail\&. This option can be useful in batch jobs and scripts where no user is present to enter a password\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-W\fR, \fB\-\-password\fR
.RS 4
Force
droplang
to prompt for a password before connecting to a database\&.
.sp
This option is never essential, since
droplang
will automatically prompt for a password if the server demands password authentication\&. However,
droplang
will waste a connection attempt finding out that the server wants a password\&. In some cases it is worth typing
\fB\-W\fR
to avoid the extra connection attempt\&.
.RE
.SH "ENVIRONMENT"
.PP
\fBPGDATABASE\fR, \fBPGHOST\fR, \fBPGPORT\fR, \fBPGUSER\fR
.RS 4
Default connection parameters
.RE
.PP
This utility, like most other
PostgreSQL
utilities, also uses the environment variables supported by
libpq
(see
Section 31.14, \(lqEnvironment Variables\(rq, in the documentation)\&.
.SH "DIAGNOSTICS"
.PP
Most error messages are self\-explanatory\&. If not, run
droplang
with the
\fB\-\-echo\fR
option and see under the respective
SQL
command for details\&. Also, any default connection settings and environment variables used by the
libpq
front\-end library will apply\&.
.SH "NOTES"
.PP
Use
\fBcreatelang\fR(1)
to add a language\&.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.PP
To remove the language
pltcl:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
$ \fBdroplang pltcl dbname\fR
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
