dbf2sql(1L) dbf2sql(1L) NAME dbf2sql - Insert xBase-style .dbf-files into a Post- greSQL-table SYNOPSIS "dbf2pg [options] dbf-file" Options: [-v[v]] [-f] [-u | -l] [-c | -D] [-d database] [-t table] [-h host] [-s oldname=newname[,oldname=newname]] [-s start] [-e end] [-W] [-U username] [-B transaction_size] [-F charset_from [-T charset_to]] DESCRIPTION This manual page documents the program dbf2pg. It takes an xBase-style .dbf-file, and inserts it into the speci- fied database and table. OPTIONS -v Display some status-messages. -vv Also display progress. -f Convert all field-names from the .dbf-file to low- ercase. -u Convert the contents of all fields to uppercase. -l Convert the contents of all fields to lowercase. -c Create the table specified with -t. If this table already exists, first DROP it. -D Delete the contents of the table specified with -t. Note that this table has to exists. An error is returned if this is not the case. -W Ask for password. -d database Specify the database to use. An error is returned if this database does not exists. Default is "test". -t table Specify the table to insert in. An error is returned if this table does not exists. Default is "test". -h host Specify the host to which to connect. Default is "localhost". 1 dbf2sql(1L) dbf2sql(1L) -s oldname=newname[,oldname=newname] Change the name of a field from oldname to newname. This is mainly used to avoid using reserved SQL- keywords. Example: -s SELECT=SEL,COMMIT=doit This is done before the -f operator has taken effect! -s start Specify the first record-number in the xBase-file we will insert. -e end Specify the last record-number in the xBase-file we will insert. -B transaction_size Specify the number of records per transaction, default is all records. -U username Log as the specified user in the database. -F charset_from If specified, it converts the data from the speci- fied charset. Example: -F IBM437 Consult your system documentation to see the con- versions available. This requires iconv to be enabled in the compile. -T charset_to Together with -F charset_from , it converts the data to the specified charset. Default is "ISO-8859-1". This requires iconv to be enabled in the compile. ENVIRONMENT This program is affected by the environment-variables as used by "PostgresSQL." See the documentation of Post- gresSQL for more info. This program can optionally use iconv character set conversion routines. BUGS Fields larger than 8192 characters are not supported and could break the program. Some charset convertions could cause the output to be larger than the input and could break the program. 2
