How to do it…

  1. To exit the script on the first error, we can write the following command:
$ psql -f test.sql -v ON_ERROR_STOP=onpsql:test.sql:1: ERROR:  syntax error at or near "mistake1"LINE 1: mistake1;        ^
  1. Alternatively, we can edit the test.sql file with the initial line shown here:
$ $EDITOR test.sql\set ON_ERROR_STOP onmistake1;mistake2;mistake3;
  1. Note that the following command will not work because we have missed the crucial ON value:
$ psql -f test.sql -v ON_ERROR_STOP
