An PgSql\Connection instance.

table_name

Name of the table into which to copy the rows.

An array of data to be copied into table_name. Each value in rows becomes a row in table_name. Each value in rows should be a delimited string of the values to insert into each field. Values should be linefeed terminated.

separator

The token that separates values for each field in each element of rows. Default is \t.

null_as

How SQL NULL values are represented in the rows. Default is \\N ("\\\\N").

Return Values

Returns true on success or false on failure.
