Streaming stdout from a Python subprocess in Python 2.6-2.7
#!/usr/bin/env python
# I was frustrated that no matter what buffer setting I passed to communicate,
# I could not get stdout from my subprocess until the process had completed.
# I googled around and came up with this, which illustrates the problem and a
# solution.

PostgreSQL command line cheatsheet

PSQL

Magic words:

psql -U postgres

Some interesting flags (to see all, use -h or --help depending on your psql version):

  • -E: will describe the underlaying queries of the \ commands (cool for learning!)
  • -l: psql will list all databases and then exit (useful if the user you connect with doesn't has a default database, like at AWS RDS)
