Upsert in Postgres	2024-12-26T16:35:42-08:00	tech-snippets

A real quick blog post just to record a useful technique I just discovered that I'll want to have a record for in the future - if inserting into a Postgres table, so long as you're on >9.5, you can upsert-and-overwrite with the following syntax:

INSERT INTO tablename (a, b, c) values (1, 2, 10)
ON CONFLICT (a) DO UPDATE SET a = EXCLUDED.a, b = EXCLUDED.b, c = EXCLUDED.c;
