Re: psql "SCHEMA" switch

["Shoaib Mir" <shoaibmir(at)gmail(dot)com>]

In your SQL script file you can add at the start something like this:

set search_path = contrib

and that should take care of it without this change in psql.

I was trying to run a psql script today against a database today.  This

I wanted to connect to a DB and then insert that new DDL into a "specific"
schema.  Because psql does not have a schema switch, I had to do it this
way...

sed -e '1i\\n SET search_path to contrib;\n' <
/usr/local/pgsql-8.2.0/share/contrib/tsearch2.sql | psql -dtemplate1 -p5433
-Upostgres

I would have liked to do it this way...
psql -dtemplate1 -p5433 -Upostgres -Xcontrib (I put an X there because "S"
was already taken.  It could be any letter...)

Anyone else agree?
