PostgreSQL - copy CSV file WHERE file EXIST

I have this request :

CREATE TEMP TABLE table1 (col1 text, col2 text);
COPY table1 FROM '/path/to/csv/Tab.csv' DELIMITER ',' CSV;

I want that if the file Tab.csv exist it will run the request COPY but if it does not exist it will go to the next request without displaying the error.

Thanks for your feedback.

before the statement, try telling postgres to ignore errors

EXEC SQL WHENEVER SQLERROR CONTINUE

and then when you're done, remember to set it back ;)
