Summary
As you learned in this chapter, you have several options at your disposal for importing data into and exporting data from your PostgreSQL database. You can do it manually via the command line or through scripting by using the COPY command. Or, you can incorporate these features into a Web application by using PHP’s pg_copy_to() and pg_copy_from() functions. Alternatively, you can rely on applications such as phpPgAdmin to facilitate the process.
This concludes the book. We hope you enjoyed reading it as much as we enjoyed the process of writing it. Good luck!
