[postgis-users] PostGIS 2.0 Shapefile and DBF Loader

Shapely has an shp loader?  I didn't know that.

 

I was assuming that pgAdmin4  already wraps pg_dump / pg_restore executables, as I don't think they built that loading functionality from scratch.

So I was thinking we could look at what they've done and repurpose it to wrap shp2pgsql /pgsql2shp, but Shapely might be an easier route.

 

In either case, I think most of the work is going to be creating the UI for it which neither shapely nor shp2pgsql is going to help us on.

 

Thanks,

Regina

I wonder if we could do some thing native in pgadmin4 with shapely

I am very new to this and need to upload shapefiles to pgAdmin 4 and my instructions say to use the Shapefile Loader.

Carson,

 

Do you compile your own PostGIS or you get from a distribution.  We still have shp2pgsql-gui in PostGIS code base, and I still ship it as part of the Windows EDB builds.

 

Unfortunately pgAdmin4 plugin architecture changed from pgAdmin3 days, so shp2gpsql-gui cannot work as a plugin under pgAdmin4.

 

I took it out of our upcoming PostGIS In Action book we are doing because of that and hoping we'll have a replacement for it soon that piggy backs on shp2pgsql commandline.

Hello,

 

I have a Macbook Pro and am using PGAdmin 4 and PostGIS. I cannot seem to find the PostGIS 2.0 Shapefile and DBF Loader. Can anyone help with this? Is there something else I need to download? Thanks.
