Package: pgmerge
pgmerge - a PostgreSQL data import and merge utilityThis utility's main purpose is to manage a set of CSV files that correspond with tables in a PostgreSQL database. Each of these CSV files can then bemergedinto their table, meaning that the following process will occur (also called anupsertoperation):Rows whose primary key don't yet exist in the table will be imported.When the primary key already exists, row values will be updated.Rows that are missing or unchanged will be ignored.pgmerge can then also export data in thesame formatexpected for import.These features allow you to move data between databases with the same schema to keep them up to date and in sync, although it does not cover handling deleted data.$ pgmerge --help
Usage: pgmerge [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Merges data in CSV files into a Postgresql database.

Options:
--version  Show the version and exit.
--help     Show this message and exit.

Commands:
export  Export each table to a CSV file.
import  Import/merge each CSV file into a table.
inspect  Inspect database schema in various ways.Import$ pgmerge import --help
Usage: pgmerge import [OPTIONS] DIRECTORY [TABLES]...

Import/merge each CSV file into a table.

All CSV files need the same name as their matching table and have to be located
in the given directory. If one or more tables are specified then only they will
be used, otherwise all tables found will be selected.

Options:
-d, --dbname TEXT               Database name to connect to.  [required]
-h, --host TEXT                 Database server host or socket directory.
                                [default: localhost]
-p, --port TEXT                 Database server port.  [default: 5432]
-U, --username TEXT             Database user name.  [default: postgres]
-s, --schema TEXT               Database schema to use.  [default: public]
-w, --no-password               Never prompt for password (e.g. peer
                                authentication).
-W, --password TEXT             Database password (default is to prompt for
                                password or read config).
-L, --uri TEXT                  Connection URI can be used instead of specifying
                                parameters separately (also sets --no-password).
-f, --ignore-cycles             Don't stop import when cycles are detected in
                                schema (will still fail if there are cycles in
                                data)
-F, --disable-foreign-keys      Disable foreign key constraint checking during
                                import (necessary if you have cycles, but requires
                                superuser rights).
-c, --config PATH               Config file for customizing how tables are
                                imported/exported.
-i, --include-dependent-tables  When selecting specific tables, also include all
                                tables on which they depend due to foreign key
                                constraints.
