pgfutter – Explanation
pgfutter is a command-line tool that allows you to import CSV, JSON, and XLSX files into a PostgreSQL database easily. It simplifies the process of loading data from various file formats into your database tables.
To use pgfutter, you need to have a PostgreSQL database already set up and running. The tool connects to the database using the database connection parameters provided.
Here’s an example of how to use pgfutter to import a CSV file into a PostgreSQL database:
pgfutter csv --dbname=mydatabase --schema=myschema --table=mytable --username=myuser --filepath=data.csv
--dbname: Specifies the name of the target database.--schema: Specifies the schema where the table belongs (optional).--table: Specifies the name of the table where the data will be imported.--username: Specifies the username to connect to the database.--filepath: Specifies the path to the CSV file.
You can also use pgfutter with JSON and XLSX files. The process is similar, but the command-line options change accordingly. Make sure to specify the correct file format and adjust the command accordingly.
Note that you may need to install pgfutter on your system before using it. You can find installation instructions and additional details in the official documentation of the tool.
