Nothing that I know of. You could do a pg_dump -d some_db
-s/--schema-only and to get a starting point for schema definitions.
Then create your own directory structure for the schema types(tables,
functions, types, etc), with sub-directories for the individual items. I
did something like that years ago and it worked until it fell over. For
instance should triggers definitions stay with the table or be on their
own, same for trigger functions. What happens if you rename something,
do you rename your directory? And so on. That is why I moved to Sqitch,
someone smarter then I came up with a solution that worked and allows me
to do what you state is your goal in your previous post. Namely, use for
development and experimentation. In addition once you have done the
preceding can then roll out to production.
