# SHOW Queries {#show-queries}
|
||
|
||
## SHOW CREATE TABLE {#show-create-table}
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SHOW CREATE [TEMPORARY] [TABLE|DICTIONARY] [db.]table [INTO OUTFILE filename] [FORMAT format]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Returns a single `String`-type ‘statement’ column, which contains a single value – the `CREATE` query used for creating the specified object.
|
||
|
||
## SHOW DATABASES {#show-databases}
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SHOW DATABASES [INTO OUTFILE filename] [FORMAT format]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Prints a list of all databases.
|
||
This query is identical to `SELECT name FROM system.databases [INTO OUTFILE filename] [FORMAT format]`.
|
||
|
||
## SHOW PROCESSLIST {#show-processlist}
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SHOW PROCESSLIST [INTO OUTFILE filename] [FORMAT format]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Outputs the content of the [system.processes](../../operations/system-tables/processes.md#system_tables-processes) table, that contains a list of queries that is being processed at the moment, excepting `SHOW PROCESSLIST` queries.
|
||
|
||
The `SELECT * FROM system.processes` query returns data about all the current queries.
|
||
|
||
Tip (execute in the console):
|
||
|
||
``` bash
|
||
$ watch -n1 "clickhouse-client --query='SHOW PROCESSLIST'"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## SHOW TABLES {#show-tables}
|
||
|
||
Displays a list of tables.
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SHOW [TEMPORARY] TABLES [{FROM | IN} <db>] [LIKE '<pattern>' | WHERE expr] [LIMIT <N>] [INTO OUTFILE <filename>] [FORMAT <format>]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If the `FROM` clause is not specified, the query returns the list of tables from the current database.
|
||
|
||
You can get the same results as the `SHOW TABLES` query in the following way:
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SELECT name FROM system.tables WHERE database = <db> [AND name LIKE <pattern>] [LIMIT <N>] [INTO OUTFILE <filename>] [FORMAT <format>]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Example**
|
||
|
||
The following query selects the first two rows from the list of tables in the `system` database, whose names contain `co`.
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SHOW TABLES FROM system LIKE '%co%' LIMIT 2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
``` text
|
||
┌─name───────────────────────────┐
|
||
│ aggregate_function_combinators │
|
||
│ collations │
|
||
└────────────────────────────────┘
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## SHOW DICTIONARIES {#show-dictionaries}
|
||
|
||
Displays a list of [external dictionaries](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/external-dictionaries/external-dicts.md).
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SHOW DICTIONARIES [FROM <db>] [LIKE '<pattern>'] [LIMIT <N>] [INTO OUTFILE <filename>] [FORMAT <format>]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If the `FROM` clause is not specified, the query returns the list of dictionaries from the current database.
|
||
|
||
You can get the same results as the `SHOW DICTIONARIES` query in the following way:
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SELECT name FROM system.dictionaries WHERE database = <db> [AND name LIKE <pattern>] [LIMIT <N>] [INTO OUTFILE <filename>] [FORMAT <format>]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Example**
|
||
|
||
The following query selects the first two rows from the list of tables in the `system` database, whose names contain `reg`.
|
||
|
||
``` sql
|
||
SHOW DICTIONARIES FROM db LIKE '%reg%' LIMIT 2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
``` text
|
||
┌─name─────────┐
|
||
│ regions │
|
||
│ region_names │
|
||
└──────────────┘
|
||
