Hello, I have a table like this: create table dummy (value integer primary key); and I insert a row like this insert into dummy values(0); then I want to insert three rows: insert into dummy values(0); insert into dummy values(1); insert into dummy values(2);
none of them will be inserted because the first insert is a primary key violation. How can I have postgreSQL not mind about the error and proceed to the next insert. I could send the inserts one at a time but bundling them speeds up the process. Thanks
if this is bulk insert, 1. insert into scratch table: create temp table scratch_foo as select * from foo limit 0; 2. insert into scratch, etc. 3. insert into foo select distinct on * from scratch_foo <-- season to taste merlin
