It depends on what you want to see.
select * from pg_trigger; will give you a list of the triggers. You'd
need to join it with pg_class and pg_proc to get the table name and
function name being called. Something like:select relname, tgname, tgtype, proname, prosrc, tgisconstraint,
tgconstrname, tgconstrrelid, tgdeferrable, tginitdeferred, tgnargs,
tgattr, tgargs from (pg_trigger join pg_class on tgrelid=pg_class.oid)
join pg_proc on (tgfoid=pg_proc.oid);
If you want to see what the triggers are doing, in the case of the foreign
key ones the code's in C in src/backend/utils/adt/ri_triggers.c I
believe.
