variables with multiple values

[jasonxu123]

Hi,

Is it possible to run pgsync with a variable that is a list? e.g.

groups:
  product:
    products: "where id in {1}"

and

pgsync product:\(123,456\)

This syntax works if only 1 value is passed in to the variable, since the SQL evaluates to where id in (123), which is valid. But it looks like if there's a comma anywhere, it gets treated as a delimiter for a table name, so I get the error

Table not found in source: 456)

(Trying to escape the comma like \, or putting quotes " around the whole string does not make a difference.) Thank you!

Hi @jasonxu123, thanks for reporting! Will think about how to address this for 1.0, but for now, you can hack around it with something like:

groups:
  product:
    products: "where id = ANY(REPLACE('{1}', '|', ',')::int[])"

and

pgsync "product:{123|456}"
