#sample of code that worked for me

import psycopg2 #import the postgres library

#connect to the database
conn = psycopg2.connect(host='localhost',
                       dbname='database1',
                       user='postgres',
                       password='****',
                       port='****')  
#create a cursor object 
#cursor object is used to interact with the database
cur = conn.cursor()

#create table with same headers as csv file
cur.execute("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS test(**** text, **** float, **** float, **** 
text)")

#open the csv file using python standard file I/O
#copy file into the table just created 
with open('******.csv', 'r') as f:
next(f) # Skip the header row.
    #f , , Comma-Seperated
    cur.copy_from(f, '****', sep=',')
    #Commit Changes
    conn.commit()
    #Close connection
    conn.close()


f.close()
