METHOD copy {

<p>
The "copy" method copies data from a file into a table.
It returns the number of rows processed successfully from the file.
The syntax of the copy method looks like this:</p>

<blockquote>
<i>dbcmd</i>&nbsp;&nbsp;<b>copy</b>&nbsp;&nbsp;<i>conflict-algorithm</i>
&nbsp;&nbsp;<i>table-name&nbsp;</i>&nbsp;&nbsp;<i>file-name&nbsp;</i>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;?<i>column-separator&nbsp;</i>?
&nbsp;&nbsp;?<i>null-indicator</i>?
</blockquote>

<p>Conflict-alogrithm must be one of the SQLite conflict algorithms for
the INSERT statement: <i>rollback</i>, <i>abort</i>,
<i>fail</i>,<i>ignore</i>, or <i>replace</i>. See the SQLite Language
section for <a href="lang.html#conflict">ON CONFLICT</a> for more information.
The conflict-algorithm must be specified in lower case.
</p>

<p>Table-name must already exists as a table.  File-name must exist, and
each row must contain the same number of columns as defined in the table.
If a line in the file contains more or less than the number of columns defined,
the copy method rollbacks any inserts, and returns an error.</p>

<p>Column-separator is an optional column separator string.  The default is
the ASCII tab character \t. </p>

<p>Null-indicator is an optional string that indicates a column value is null.
The default is an empty string.  Note that column-separator and
null-indicator are optional positional arguments; if null-indicator
is specified, a column-separator argument must be specifed and
precede the null-indicator argument.</p>

<p>The copy method implements similar functionality to the <b>.import</b>
SQLite shell command. 
The SQLite 2.x <a href="lang.html#copy"><b>COPY</b></a> statement 
(using the PostgreSQL COPY file format)
can be implemented with this method as:</p>

<blockquote>
dbcmd&nbsp;&nbsp;copy&nbsp;&nbsp;$conflictalgo
&nbsp;&nbsp;$tablename&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$filename&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\t&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;\\N
</blockquote>
