Hello! I have a PostgreSQL (8.3.3, WinXP + linux) database with multiple schemas. I would like, on a regular basis, to be able to copy the structure and data of one schema under a new schema, using of course a different name. What would be the easiest way?
- I have seen the TODO entry “Add CREATE SCHEMA ... LIKE that copies a schema”, so I guess an easy solution (a single pgsql command) is not yet available…
- I guess the alternative is to use pg_dump to dump a single schema and use pg_restore, but how can I restore the dumped information under another schema? I would like to avoid dumping it as an sql script and having it to modify it manually, because this will be a regular operation that I would like to automate in my application.
Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide!
