I'm sorry my first example was incomplete
I need to migrate data from postgresql to oracle
thus I have to use
dump --column-inserts instead of copy
to have an output like this but order by pk:
INSERT INTO test (id, note, id_father) VALUES (6, 'Homer Simpson ', 5);
INSERT INTO test (id, note, id_father) VALUES (5, 'Abraham Simpson', NULL);
INSERT INTO test (id, note, id_father) VALUES (10, 'Maggie Simpson ', 6);
INSERT INTO test (id, note, id_father) VALUES (1, 'Ned Flanders ', NULL);
INSERT INTO test (id, note, id_father) VALUES (2, 'Maude Flanders ', NULL);
INSERT INTO test (id, note, id_father) VALUES (9, 'Bart Simpson ', 6);
INSERT INTO test (id, note, id_father) VALUES (3, 'Rod Flanders ', 1);
INSERT INTO test (id, note, id_father) VALUES (4, 'Todd Flanders ', 1);
INSERT INTO test (id, note, id_father) VALUES (7, 'Marge Simpson ', NULL);
INSERT INTO test (id, note, id_father) VALUES (8, 'Lisa Simpson ', 6);

You can COPY based on a select statement, so if you copy to stdout
with a select with an order by clause, it should sort the data the way
you want.

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)
select * from test;
id | nome | id_father
----+-----------------+-----------
6 | Homer Simpson | 5
5 | Abraham Simpson |
10 | Maggie Simpson | 6
1 | Ned Flanders |
2 | Maude Flanders |
9 | Bart Simpson | 6
3 | Rod Flanders | 1
4 | Todd Flanders | 1
7 | Marge Simpson |
8 | Lisa Simpson | 6
(10 rows)
I would like to dump the table with this order:
COPY test (id, nome, id_father) FROM stdin;
1 Ned Flanders \N
2 Maude Flanders \N
3 Rod Flanders 1
4 Todd Flanders 1
5 Abraham Simpson \N
6 Homer Simpson 5
7 Marge Simpson \N
8 Lisa Simpson 6
9 Bart Simpson 6
10 Maggie Simpson 6
\.
instead it is dumped like this:
COPY test (id, note, id_father) FROM stdin;
6 Homer Simpson 5
5 Abraham Simpson \N
10 Maggie Simpson 6
1 Ned Flanders \N
2 Maude Flanders \N
9 Bart Simpson 6
3 Rod Flanders 1
4 Todd Flanders 1
7 Marge Simpson \N
8 Lisa Simpson 6
\.
and I can't upload the table because the foreing keys.
