Does anyone know of any export or copy utility that runs on FreeBSD?
I basically need a program that will connect to one database, do a select
and copy the result to a second database.
Alternatively a tool which would export the data in a format suitable to
be loaded by psql is just fine.
Found some windows utilities that pretty much do what I need, but I need a
utility that would run from a FreeBSD machine since the machines where the
data will be getting moved are both FreeBSD and at a data center.
I am about to write a program for this in python, but if anyone knows of a
utility would be great.
I will be doing queries like:
select * from source table where <condition is true>
I found pgexport
http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/pgexport/projdisplay.php, but it did not
support the where clause and an email to the author bounced which I guess
means he may no longer support the program. If the program wasn't in perl I
wouldn't mind fixing it up. :-)
