see the below example
SELECT mydate calendar_date
,EXTRACT(WEEK FROM mydate) week_num
,EXTRACT(month FROM mydate) month_num
,to_char(mydate,'Mon') month_name
,EXTRACT(Quarter FROM mydate) quarter_num
,EXTRACT(year FROM mydate) calendar_year
,EXTRACT(DOW FROM mydate) iso_dayofweek
,to_char(mydate, 'day') dayofweek_name
FROM (
SELECT now()::DATE mydate
) t
Result:
calendar_date week_num month_num month_name quarter_num calendar_year iso_dayofweek dayofweek_name

2015/04/24 17 4 Apr 2 2015 5 friday
You can use generate_series() to get all date in a year for ex: 2015
select generate_series(0,364) + date'1/1/2015'
this will produce date from 1/1/2015 - 31/12/2015, and use this select instead of SELECT now()::DATE in the given example
If you want to create table for year 2015 then you can use the following query
CREATE TABLE mycal_2015 AS
SELECT row_number() OVER () date_key
,mydate calendar_date
,EXTRACT(WEEK FROM mydate) week_num
,EXTRACT(month FROM mydate) month_num
,to_char(mydate,'Mon') month_name
,EXTRACT(Quarter FROM mydate) quarter_num
,EXTRACT(year FROM mydate) calendar_year
,EXTRACT(DOW FROM mydate) iso_dayofweek
,to_char(mydate, 'day') dayofweek_name
FROM (
SELECT generate_series(0, 364) + DATE '1/1/2015' mydate
) t
and the table will look like select * from mycal_2015
date_key calendar_date week_num month_num month_name quarter_num calendar_year iso_dayofweek dayofweek_name
