export table to csv on postgres

Question

How can I export a table to .csv in Postgres, when I\'m not superuser and can\'t use the copy command?

I can still import the data to postgres

Answer 1

I was having trouble with superuser and running psql, I took the simple stupid way using PGAdmin III.
1) SELECT * FROM ;
Before running select Query in the menu bar and select 'Query to File' This will save it to a folder of your choice. May have to play with the settings on how to export, it likes quoting and ;.

2) SELECT * FROM ;
run normally and then save the output by selecting export in the File menu. This will save as a .csv

This is not a good approach for large tables. Tables I have done this for are a few 100,000 rows and 10-30 columns. Large tables may have problems.
