If you can decide on what client interface you want to use there should be existing resources on the web walking through how to do this using that client interface.
Something like this:
INSERT INTO images(image) VALES( loadfile( /home/igor/my_image) );
Looking to run it from gAdmin in the Terminal.
As SQL is executed on the server there is the major issue of the server being unable to resolve /home on the client machine. But maybe pgAdmin has its own way to deal with this. Have you read its documentation?
I don't know - server is running on the same OSX machine as pgAdmin will be.
So nobody is playing with the images?
Is it even possible - to insert an image as BLOB into the database using a simple INSERT INTO query?
Many of us ‘play with images’. We use tools to write to the database. I’m currently using java to write millions of records into the database include bytea columns with 50-100K binary data. What tools do you have at hand?
It’s difficult to get an image into a string like ‘insert into tablename values (<what would go here>)’
