Re: Best import approach? Delimiters in strings

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Unfortunately my starting point is data in the format of that example line. I hasn't spotted the lack of quotes on the first value. Given this format, is my best bet to write a script transforming it pre-import to postgres? I.e. are there no arguments I could pass to the import process to handle this directly? Thanks

Hi,

A bulk import (script attached) is failing.

Error message:
psql:/home/andyt/projects/django-stringer/txc/stops_inport.txt:86: ERROR:  invalid input syntax for type double precision: "stop_lat"

I think the reason may be a delimiters in strings such as "Golders Green, Golders Green, stop GW"

490015496GW,"Golders Green, Golders Green, stop GW",,51.57207,-0.19549

What's a good way to handle this?

Thanks,


Andy
