Show HN: Import CSV and JSON into PostgreSQL the Easy Way

I know you can already do that with the `COPY FROM` statement in Postgres but I always think it is a pain because you need physical access, need the files to be 100% correct and you have no progress indication.

If you need a more sophisticated solution you can look at pgloader. http://pgloader.io/

Nope, there's COPY ... FROM STDIN which accepts data inline, over a normal connection.

You can use `\COPY` in PSQL remotely and without superuser privileges
