---------------------------------------

Is it possible that we could emulate this postgres upsert behavior via procedure within Sqoop export code?

> Hi,
> One of my Hadoop developers is trying to re-export to PostgreSQL but is hitting the following error:
> ERROR tool.ExportTool: Error during export: Mixed update/insert is not supported against the target database yet
> Could we please add upsert functionality to the PostgreSQL connector?
> Although Postgres doesn't have direct upsert functionality it's possible to construct SQL to handle this like so:
> http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/plpgsql-control-structures.html#PLPGSQL-UPSERT-EXAMPLE
> A similar request to add upsert functionality for MySQL was addressed here:
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-621
> Thanks
