SELECT setval('sequencename', COALESCE((SELECT MAX(id)+1 FROM tablename), 1), false);

这个答案是从毛罗那里抄来的。

drop function IF EXISTS rebuilt_sequences() RESTRICT;
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION  rebuilt_sequences() RETURNS integer as
$body$
  DECLARE sequencedefs RECORD; c integer ;
  BEGIN
    FOR sequencedefs IN Select
      DISTINCT(constraint_column_usage.table_name) as tablename,
      constraint_column_usage.column_name as columnname,
      replace(replace(columns.column_default,'''::regclass)',''),'nextval(''','') as sequencename
      from information_schema.constraint_column_usage, information_schema.columns
      where constraint_column_usage.table_schema ='public' AND 
      columns.table_schema = 'public' AND columns.table_name=constraint_column_usage.table_name
      AND constraint_column_usage.column_name = columns.column_name
      AND columns.column_default is not null 
      ORDER BY sequencename
   LOOP    
      EXECUTE 'select max('||sequencedefs.columnname||') from ' || sequencedefs.tablename INTO c;
      IF c is null THEN c = 0; END IF;
      IF c is not null THEN c = c+ 1; END IF;
      EXECUTE 'alter sequence ' || sequencedefs.sequencename ||' minvalue '||c ||' start ' || c ||' restart  with ' || c;
   END LOOP;

   RETURN 1; END;
$body$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

select rebuilt_sequences();

ALTER SEQUENCE sequence_name RESTART WITH (SELECT max(id) FROM table_name); 是行不通的。

复制自@tardate答案:

SELECT setval(pg_get_serial_sequence('table_name', 'id'), MAX(id)) FROM table_name;

我花了一个小时试图让djsnowsill的答案与数据库使用Mixed Case表和列一起工作，然后终于偶然发现了解决方案，感谢Manuel Darveau的评论，但我认为我可以让每个人都更清楚一点:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION "reset_sequence" (tablename text, columnname text)
RETURNS "pg_catalog"."void" AS
$body$
DECLARE
BEGIN
EXECUTE format('SELECT setval(pg_get_serial_sequence(''%1$I'', %2$L),
        (SELECT COALESCE(MAX(%2$I)+1,1) FROM %1$I), false)',tablename,columnname);
END;
$body$  LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

SELECT format('%s_%s_seq',table_name,column_name), reset_sequence(table_name,column_name) 
FROM information_schema.columns WHERE column_default like 'nextval%';

这样做的好处是:

不假设ID列是特定的拼写方式。 不假设所有的表都有一个序列。 适用于混合大小写表/列名。 使用更简洁的格式。

解释一下，问题是pg_get_serial_sequence接受字符串来计算你引用的是什么，所以如果你这样做:

"TableName" --it thinks it's a table or column
'TableName' --it thinks it's a string, but makes it lower case
'"TableName"' --it works!

这是使用格式字符串中的“%1$I”实现的，“使撇号1$表示第一个参数，I表示在引号中

重新启动所有序列到1使用:

-- Create Function
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION "sy_restart_seq_to_1" (
    relname TEXT
)
RETURNS "pg_catalog"."void" AS
$BODY$

DECLARE

BEGIN
    EXECUTE 'ALTER SEQUENCE '||relname||' RESTART WITH 1;';
END;
$BODY$

LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

-- Use Function
SELECT 
    relname
    ,sy_restart_seq_to_1(relname)
FROM pg_class
WHERE relkind = 'S';

丑陋的黑客修复它使用一些贝壳魔法，不是一个伟大的解决方案，但可能会激励其他人有类似的问题:)
