Re: pg_dumpall from a script

You could write a plperlul function that runs a shell script to back up your database, you can even pass it parameters and put a call to that in a trigger.

BUT, this could result in multiple backups running at the same time and become a performance drag.

Oh I missed that, I skimmed and thought it was the same as \set

Turns out it's not and it's exactly what I want!

Thanks!

Hello All,

Thanks for the replies.Sorry I must have been a bit unclear, I realise I
*could* do this from the shell level, but can I do it from a PSQL
session somehow?

Lucas' \setenv method won't work for you?



Cheers,
