From 49bd75c5a3eca6cf03dc7294b402f7fb54f79ff2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fujii Masao Date: Thu, 26 Jun 2025 20:35:10 +0900 Subject: [PATCH v3] Add support for multi-line header skipping in COPY The HEADER option for COPY now accepts a non-negative integer value, allowing users to skip an arbitrary number of header lines when importing data with COPY FROM. For COPY TO, only 0 or 1 is allowed. --- doc/src/sgml/ref/copy.sgml | 38 +++++++++++++++++------- src/backend/commands/copy.c | 43 +++++++++++++++++----------- src/backend/commands/copyfromparse.c | 17 ++++++++--- src/backend/commands/copyto.c | 2 +- src/include/commands/copy.h | 16 +++++------ src/test/regress/expected/copy.out | 25 +++++++++++++++- src/test/regress/expected/copy2.out | 6 ++++ src/test/regress/sql/copy.sql | 30 +++++++++++++++++++ src/test/regress/sql/copy2.sql | 3 ++ src/tools/pgindent/typedefs.list | 1 - 10 files changed, 139 insertions(+), 42 deletions(-) diff --git a/doc/src/sgml/ref/copy.sgml b/doc/src/sgml/ref/copy.sgml index 8433344e5b6..0e3182f1601 100644 --- a/doc/src/sgml/ref/copy.sgml +++ b/doc/src/sgml/ref/copy.sgml @@ -37,7 +37,7 @@ COPY { table_name [ ( delimiter_character' NULL 'null_string' DEFAULT 'default_string' - HEADER [ boolean | MATCH ] + HEADER [ boolean | integer | MATCH ] QUOTE 'quote_character' ESCAPE 'escape_character' FORCE_QUOTE { ( column_name [, ...] ) | * } @@ -212,6 +212,15 @@ COPY { table_name [ ( + + integer + + + Specifies a non-negative integer value passed to the selected option. + + + + FORMAT @@ -303,16 +312,25 @@ COPY { table_name [ ( HEADER - Specifies that the file contains a header line with the names of each - column in the file.
