I'm trying to find a one-liner to read query from external file and output psql NOTICEs to a log file. I tried :
psql -h host -d database -U username -f my_sql_file.sql > my_log_file.log
my_sql_file.sql has a multiline anonymous block like :
DO
$$
DECLARE
stuff
BEGIN
RAISE NOTICE '--------- TEST ----------';
END;
$$
The log file outputs the first line of the file : "DO" and nothing else.
CodePudding user response:
The notice gets written to standard error, so redirect that too:
psql -h host -d database -U username -f my_sql_file.sql > my_log_file.log 2>&1
