Re: [PHP] How can I make postgre execute file with SQL code, on windows platform

[Bogdan Ribic]

Hi Chris,

  Goal was to get postgre to execute/import an sql dump file, ie not to 
write import-export functionality myself. In the end, I used piping, 
something like this:


system(type $filename | \C:\Program 
Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\bin\psql.exe\  -h localhost -p 5432 X6tmp 
\postgres\);


  But thanx anyway :)

Boban.

or am I missing something here?


You might be better of not doing this with php.

Create the dump on the first machine.
Copy the dump (scp, rsync, copy via samba-mounted drive, whatever)
import it

It depends what your end goal is.

[PHP] How can I make postgre execute file with SQL code, on windows platform

[Bogdan Ribic]

Hi all,

  I need to synchronize two postgresql servers, but synchronization is 
one-directional (ie, data from one computer needs to be copied to 
another). Basically, I want the target computer to drop the schema 
public and then re-create it from my dump made on the source machine. 
Is there an easy way to do it from PHP, perhaps using some postgre 
utility via system() call ?

pg_connect($connection_string);
pg_query(drop schema public);

import data
