Hi hackers, As described in the doc https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-copy.html, the TEXT format recognizes backslash-period (\.) as end-of-data marker.
The example below will raise an error for the line contains `\.`. CREATE TABLE test ( id int, name text, dep text ) Data in file "/tmp/data". 122,as\.d,adad 133,sa dad,adadad Then execute copy test from '/tmp/data' DELIMITER ','; An end-of-copy marker corrupt error will be raised. This requires users to escape the end-of-data marker manually in their data. Why we don't have a mechanism to define other characters as end-of-data marker? Or there are other ways to avoid escape the end-of-data in data? Regards, Junfeng
