Re: Importing into Postgres from a csv file

You sure can...

put the file somewhere on your db server.. let's just say /tmp and the file
is called data.db

su - postgres
psql [dbname]
copy TABLE from '/tmp/data.db' using delimiters ',';

That'll do ya.. Make sure that the columns are in the right order too... :)

Here's the syntax for the copy command

COPY [ BINARY ] table [ WITH OIDS ]
    FROM { 'filename' | stdin }
    [ [USING] DELIMITERS 'delimiter' ]
    [ WITH NULL AS 'null string' ]
COPY [ BINARY ] table [ WITH OIDS ]
    TO { 'filename' | stdout }
    [ [USING] DELIMITERS 'delimiter' ]
    [ WITH NULL AS 'null string' ]
