Backup And Restore Commands

here are some useful dump and restore , also execute sql file script .

cd "C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense\Repository\PostgreSQL\12.5\bin"

.\dropdb.exe -h localhost -p 4432 -U postgres QSR

.\createdb.exe -h localhost -p 4432 -U postgres -T template0 QSR

.\pg_restore.exe -h localhost -p 4432 -U postgres -d QSR E:\Tools\QSR_backup.tar

.\pg_restore.exe -h localhost -p 4432 -U postgres -d QSR E:\Tools\QSR_backup_148_latest.tar





cd C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense\Repository\PostgreSQL\14\bin



#dump bakcup

.\pg_dump.exe -h localhost -p 4432 -U postgres -b -F t -f "E:\Tools\QSR_backup_v14_may2024.tar" QSR



#execute single sql

.\psql.exe -h localhost -p 4432 -U postgres -d QSR -f "E:\Tools\593_backup\sql2\AppContents_.sql"

Powershell #1 rename

下面是一个PowerShell脚本，它会遍历 E:\Tools\593_backup\csv 目录下的所有 CSV 文件，并重命名这些文件，去除文件名最前面的 _ 字符。

# Define the directory path



$directoryPath = "E:\Tools\593_backup\csv"



# Get all CSV files in the directory



$csvFiles = Get-ChildItem -Path $directoryPath -Filter *.csv



# Loop through each file



foreach ($file in $csvFiles) {



    # Get the current file name



    $currentFileName = $file.Name



    # Check if the file name starts with an underscore



    if ($currentFileName.StartsWith("_")) {



        # Create the new file name by removing the leading underscore



        $newFileName = $currentFileName.Substring(1)



        # Define the full path for the new file name



        $newFilePath = Join-Path -Path $directoryPath -ChildPath $newFileName



        # Rename the file



        Rename-Item -Path $file.FullName -NewName $newFilePath

    }

}

Powershell#2 append

下面是一个PowerShell脚本，它会遍历 E:\Tools\593_backup\sql 目录下的所有 SQL 文件，并在每个文件的开头写入 SET session_replication_role = replica; 并换行。

# Define the directory path

$directoryPath = "E:\Tools\593_backup\sql"



# Get all SQL files in the directory

$sqlFiles = Get-ChildItem -Path $directoryPath -Filter *.sql



# Loop through each file

foreach ($file in $sqlFiles) {

    # Read the current content of the file

    $content = Get-Content -Path $file.FullName



    # Prepend the new line to the content

    $newContent = "SET session_replication_role = replica;" + [Environment]::NewLine + $content



    # Write the new content back to the file

    Set-Content -Path $file.FullName -Value $newContent

}

Powershell#3 Execute SQL

下面是一个PowerShell脚本，它会遍历 E:\Tools\593_backup\sql2 目录下的所有 SQL 文件，并针对每个文件执行命令 .\psql.exe -h localhost -p 4432 -U postgres -d QSR -f "E:\Tools\593_backup\sql2\"+文件名，同时把已执行过的文件名输出到 E:\Tools\593_backup\sql_result.txt。

# Replace with your actual passw , once you input the credential here , it will auto put into the pgsql without any manual input .

# Powered by Moshow@zhengkai.blog.csdn.net
# Define the directory paths

$psqlDirectory = "C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense\Repository\PostgreSQL\14\bin"

$directoryPath = "E:\Tools\593_backup\sql2"

$resultFile = "E:\Tools\593_backup\sql_result.txt"

$pgPassword = "*********" # Replace with your actual passw



# Change to the psql directory

Set-Location -Path $psqlDirectory



# Get all SQL files in the directory

$sqlFiles = Get-ChildItem -Path $directoryPath -Filter *.sql



# Loop through each file

foreach ($file in $sqlFiles) {

    # Define the full path for the SQL file

    $filePath = Join-Path -Path $directoryPath -ChildPath $file



    # Set the PGPASSWORD environment variable

    $env:PGPASSWORD = $pgPassword



    # Execute the psql command

    & .\psql.exe -h localhost -p 4432 -U postgres -d QSR -f $filePath



    # Check if the command was successful

    if ($LASTEXITCODE -eq 0) {

        # Append the file name to the result file

        Add-Content -Path $resultFile -Value $file
