how to automatically create the associated schema when I `pg_restore` a table?
I backed a table into a file using something like pg_dump --table=ex.tab.
But when I restore the dump file into a newly created database, it complains that the schema ex does not exist. Looking into the dump file ( listed below), it does not have a CREATE SCHEMA statement.
Is there an option that I can add to pg_dump or pg_store so that the schema of the table is automatically created?
Note: I do this for multiple tables in the command line (multiple --table=), and do not want to manually create schema for each table beforehand (if possible).
