Обсуждение: COPY command with bad input
Hi All. I am trying to load data from a text file to Postgres table using COPY command. If text file has some invalid rows then COPYcommand stops at the first error. As you can see, MySQL “load data infile” has IGNORE option. If you specify IGNORE, input rows that duplicate an existingrow on a unique key value are skipped. Do we have similar option for Postgres COPY command ? Please help me. Thanks, Sandeep ____________________________________________________________________________________ Need Mail bonding?

Not yet; it's on the developers' TODO list: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs.TODO.html * Allow COPY to report error lines and continue In the meantime you could check out pgloader: http://pgfoundry.org/projects/pgloader/ -- Michael Fuhr
