I need to clone a schema in a database programmatically. Using pg_dump.exe to dump chema in plain text, then rename old schema and after that use pg_restore.exe to restore schema is slow since I need to clone data only in some smaller tables. Most of tables should be cloned without data.
To start this I think I need to clone all schema tables first.
How to create copy of table so that primary keys and foreign keys relationships remain ?
I tried
CREATE TABLE clone AS SELECT * FROM original
But this creates plain table.
Any idea ? Or where to find sample (simpler that pgAdmin or pg_dump source code) which re-constructs statements to create primary and foreign keys ?
