Hello,
I'm trying to import a text file into a table using the COPY command.
The text file contains four columns: id, col_1, col_2, col_3 (in that order).
My target table only has id and col_1.
From the documentation I assumed that the following statement

It seems like you want to be able to say something like this (imaginary)
syntax:
\copy test_copy (id, col1) FROM 'test.csv' CSV COLUMNS(1,2,IGNORE)
or some similar way to provide a column mapping from the CSV columns to
the output of the COPY command.

Have a look a Benerator. It can create quite reasonable test data (e.g. valid addresses,
