Hi all,
I've been working on a postgis restore script.
Basically the script extracts the ToC from a dump
and skips all objects that will be defined by postgis.sql.
Then enables postgis, then restores the dump.
Under the directory utils/ you can find an initial
implementation.
Known issues:
- operators in the dump are always skipped
because from the ToC there's no way to tell
wheter or not they belong to postgis.
- It seems that when creating tables in schema 'MySchema'
pg_restore sets the search path to 'MyScheme', 'pg_catalogue'.
This means that postgis constraints will invoke functions
unfindable (geometrytype and srid) w/out the 'public' suffix,
which is not added :! Any test with this is appreciated.
--strk;
