PostgreSQL uses a :colon syntax for parameterizing SQL commands with

create-database.sql:

CREATE DATABASE :db;

Usage:

$ psql -f create-database.sql -v db=test

However, pgsanity/ecpg rejects these.

$ pgsanity create-database.sql
line 1: ERROR: syntax error at or near ":db"

Is there a flag I can give to ecpg to ignore input parameters?

Is there a patch we could make to ecpg to accept input parameters?

Is there another way to write my input parameters to work around this error?

If I am following correctly:
