使用 SQL 将 csv 文件复制到表时出错 Shell (psql)

Question

I have a file test.csv with two lines:

"smth", "1", "2", "3"
"smth more", "4", "5", "6"

I'm trying to copy it to a table with sql shell:

CREATE TABLE test_table(col1 TEXT, col2 TEXT, col3 TEXT, col4 TEXT);
COPY test_table FROM 'E:\\PostgreSQL13\\scripts\\test.csv';

And get the following error:

 wrong syntax for type integer: """"smth"", ""1"", ""2"", ""3""""

What could be the problem here?

Thank you!

Answer 1

Tell copy you are inputing a csv , so it will use the default comma separator and recognize the double quotes. ( text format is the default)

COPY test_table FROM 'E:\\PostgreSQL13\\scripts\\test.csv' (FORMAT 'csv')
