Обсуждение: How do I use text script containing SQL?
I want to build my tables by placing all the sql statements in a file. What is the correct way to use this file with psql? Example: My text file has this in it: CREATE TABLE table1 ( table1_id serial, field1 char(5), PRIMARY KEY (table1_id) ); I want to be able to use the file to create my table. I've tried psql -d databasename -e < filename.txt but that doesn't work. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo!
