PostGreSQL - pgloader installation?

Question

Granted... this is a dumb question, but it's still a mystery to someone like me, whose never done it before... I'm trying to install pgloader, but I can't seem to find any documentation.... I'm running MAMP on MAC OS X. I've already installed the tcllib, and am about to do:

wget http://pgfoundry.org/frs/download.php/233/pgloader-1.0.tar.gz tar zxvf pgloader-1.0.tar.gz

I'm wondering what directory I need to actually untar pgloader into? Is there anything else that I need to do to get it to work?

Answer 1

From what I could gather (YMMV):

You can always do

tar xzvf pgloader-1.0.tar.gz 

(for any tar archives) to see what's in.

If python is setup you should be able to use from the created folder.

If you intend to import or run from anywhere then make sure its on pythons path.
