Postgresql 9.3
I am downloading data that I want to import into a table. The data
comes in tab delimited, CRLF format.
I am using plpython to get the data and I wanted to use copy with
stdin to import it without having to save it to a file.
To do this, I am setting sys.stdin to a StringIO object with my data
inside.
However, when I call copy I am getting SPI_ERROR_COPY, which the
docs define as "if COPY TO stdout or COPY FROM stdin was attempted"
which is exactly what I am trying to do (so the error is logical).
Is there another method of loading delimited data in bulk without
saving it as a file<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family:
