Insert line break in postgresql when updating text field

Question

I am trying to update a text field in a table of my postgresql database.

UPDATE public.table SET long_text = \'First Line\' + CHAR(10) + \'Second line.\' WHE         


        

Answer 1

In my version of postgres, \n didnt work for line break and i used \r\n instead, like this:

UPDATE public.table 
SET long_text = E'First Liner\r\nSecond line.'
WHERE id = 19;
