如何连接到postgresql google云sql实例？ 需要使用pg_restore命令导入postgresql转储

Question

I have a google cloud sql postgresql instance. When I try to import postgresql dump I get following error.

I am able to connect to instance with the command given below.

gcloud sql connect instance-name --user postgres

It takes me to the psql command line client where I can not use database restore command like pg_restore

Does anyone have an idea on how can I actually connect to Google Cloud SQL instance so that I can perform operation such as pg_restore?

Answer 1

if you need pg_restore can simply use:

gcloud sql connect instance-name --user postgres < dbbackup.sql

where dbbackup.sql is a file obtained from:

pg_dump olddb --format=plain --no-owner -v >> dbbackup.sql
