psql question - Mailing list pgsql-general

I’m looking for a way where I can tailor DDL scripts for deployment with environment variables.

Support I have a requirement to prefix table names with dev_ , fqa_, or prod_

I’d like to have a file for each env with their own unique settings – host, dbname

Dev.sql

                \set env dev

Fqa

                \set env fqa

prod

                \set env prod

and then

my deployment script would have

ddl.sql

\i :env.sql

Create table schema.:env_tablename….

I tried it and didn’t work.

p1gp1=> \set env dev

p1gp1=> \i P1GP1_ETL_STAGE_TBLS_BIO6113_100.:env.sql

P1GP1_ETL_STAGE_TBLS_BIO6113_100.:env.sql: No such file or directory

Any thoughts on how I might get this to work?

Thanks
