Hello list,
I want to automate database creation, user creation,table creation via script. this script will be run by an external programme to postgresql server.
is there any way?
 
what i want to do is as follows:
 
 

#!/bin/sh

su - postgres

TIMEDUMP=`date +%Y%m%d"_"%H%M`

PG_PATH=/usr/local/pgsql/bin

${PG_PATH}/pg_dump -d qsweb -U postgres -p 5432 -Ft -f /usr/local/pgsql/data/backup/BACKUP_QSWEB_${TIMEDUMP}.tar

echo ' Backup of Database for Quick School kept at path /usr/local/pgsql/data/backup/BACKUP_QSWEB_${TIMEDUMP}.tar'

${PG_PATH}/dropdb  -U qsweb qsweb

echo ' Old Database for Quick School Dropped'

${PG_PATH}/dropuser qsweb

echo ' Old user qsweb for Quick School Dropped'

${PG_PATH}/createuser -s qsweb

echo ' New user qsweb for Quick School created'

${PG_PATH}/createdb -O qsweb qsweb

echo ' New Database qsweb for Quick School created'

${PG_PATH}/createlang -U qsweb -d qsweb plpgsql

echo ' Database language plpgqslfor Quick School created'

echo ' Database for Quick School created. Please run the Create_Tables.sql script'

${PG_PATH}/psql -U qsweb qsweb

and then Run  Create_Tables.sql

_EOF_

 

 

is there any way??

right now the scripts stop after switching over to postgres user.

 

With regards

Ashish...

assuming the script is run as user root, you can invoke it as
su - postgres -c /path/to/script

Just remove the "su - postgres" from your script. You might want to look
at your init scripts (/etc/init.d/postgresql I assume) for how they do it.

Ciao,
Thomas

Hi Ashish Karalkar

 

That’s because the shell is waiting for input.

 

Try do something like this

 

su – postgres –c “${PG_PATH}/pg_dump -d qsweb -U postgres -p 5432 -Ft -f /usr/local/pgsql/data/backup/BACKUP_QSWEB_${TIMEDUMP}.tar”

 

That should run the command as the postgres user.

 

Thanks

Bruce
