Re: {Spam} Need help with bash script and postgresql

It seems a part of your problem is not about scripting psql but loading data
into PostgreSQL, so let me present you with pgloader:
http://pgfoundry.org/projects/pgloader

It uses COPY to insert quickly some CSV (or CSV-like) formated data into the
database. You have to configure it (a section per input file, one input file
per table, see man page), then it will import the data. Then main difference
with plain COPY is that pgloader will be able to insert data in the presence
of bad input rows, simply discarding them, when COPY will cancel the load
entirely.

Hope this helps, regards,
