[sql] How to detect query which holds the lock in Postgres?

From this excellent article on query locks in Postgres, one can get blocked query and blocker query and their information from the following query.

CREATE VIEW lock_monitor AS(
SELECT
  COALESCE(blockingl.relation::regclass::text,blockingl.locktype) as locked_item,
  now() - blockeda.query_start AS waiting_duration, blockeda.pid AS blocked_pid,
  blockeda.query as blocked_query, blockedl.mode as blocked_mode,
  blockinga.pid AS blocking_pid, blockinga.query as blocking_query,
  blockingl.mode as blocking_mode
FROM pg_catalog.pg_locks blockedl
JOIN pg_stat_activity blockeda ON blockedl.pid = blockeda.pid
JOIN pg_catalog.pg_locks blockingl ON(
  ( (blockingl.transactionid=blockedl.transactionid) OR
  (blockingl.relation=blockedl.relation AND blockingl.locktype=blockedl.locktype)
  ) AND blockedl.pid != blockingl.pid)
JOIN pg_stat_activity blockinga ON blockingl.pid = blockinga.pid
  AND blockinga.datid = blockeda.datid
WHERE NOT blockedl.granted
AND blockinga.datname = current_database()
);

SELECT * from lock_monitor;

As the query is long but useful, the article author has created a view for it to simplify it's usage.
