Gabriel Reid updated PHOENIX-897:
---------------------------------
Attachment: PHOENIX-897.patch
Patch to quote supplied parameters before passing them to the shell in psql.
There is a separate code path for Windows, but unfortunately I don't have a
Windows system to test it on, so if someone could give this a go on Windows
that would be great.
> psql command doesn't allow using certain characters in invocation

>
> The Python psql command converts the provided command-line parameters into a
> string, and then allows the shell to interpret the created string. If
> characters that have a special meaning are supplied as a parameter (e.g.
> pipe, semicolon), they are not properly quoted before being passed on to the
> shell, causing the tool to crash with an error from the underlying shell.
> It's should be possible to provide any character (particularly common CSV
> separator characters like pipe and semicolon) as commandline parameters, so
> the provided parameters should be properly quoted before passing them to the
> underlying shell.
