How to copy a .sql file to a postgresql?

To copy a .sql file to a PostgreSQL database, you can use the psql command-line tool. Here are the steps to do this:

1. Open a terminal window or command prompt.
2. Navigate to the directory where your .sql file is located.
3. Use the following command to copy the .sql file to the PostgreSQL database:

1

psql -U username -d database_name -a -f file.sql

Replace "username" with your PostgreSQL username, "database_name" with the name of your PostgreSQL database, and "file.sql" with the name of your .sql file.

1. Enter your PostgreSQL password when prompted.
2. The contents of the .sql file will be copied to the specified PostgreSQL database.

Alternatively, you can also use the pgAdmin tool to import a .sql file into a PostgreSQL database. To do this, open pgAdmin, connect to your PostgreSQL server, right-click on the database where you want to import the .sql file, select "Restore...", and choose the .sql file you want to import. The pgAdmin tool will execute the .sql file contents and import them into the database.
