Hi all,
I would like to know if it is possible to dump a table ordered by its
primary key.
Take a look at the this test table...
\d test
Table "public.test"
Column | Type | Modifiers
-----------+---------+---------------------------------------------------
id | integer | not null name | text |
id_father | integer |
Indexes:
"test_pkey" PRIMARY KEY, btree (id)
Foreign-key constraints:
"test_id_father_fkey" FOREIGN KEY (id_father) REFERENCES test(id)
Why not use the COPY command directly?:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/interactive/sql-copy.html
FYI:
"COPY with a file name instructs the PostgreSQL server to directly read
from or write to a file. The file must be accessible to the server and
the name must be specified from the viewpoint of the server. When STDIN
or STDOUT is specified, data is transmitted via the connection between
the client and the server.
"
If you want to work from the client you can use \copy in psql.
