Re: How to pass parameters into a sql script ?

["Atul Chojar" <achojar@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks - with quoting, the 2^nd select (select count(*) from prod_debit_payments_unapplied where when_received = :p_date;) works.

 

Thanks!

Looks like quoting issue.
Try this one:

$ psql -d us_audit -e -1 -v p_date=\'20081023\' -f chk_param.sql
select count(*) from prod_debit_payments_unapplied where when_received = (select :p_date::char(8));

or even

select count(*) from prod_debit_payments_unapplied where when_received = :p_date;

We are unable to pass parameters into any sql script. Could anyone look at the test below and give any suggestions? PostgreSQL version is 8.2.7, running on Linux.

$ cat chk_param.sql
