You can however pull it from a -Fc backup with pg_restore. Just FYI.

Or strip it from a pg_dump/pg_dumpall with sed. Or write your own function-dumper based on ideas gleaned from various notes/comments on the web (my approach).

I had not thought of using the -Fc approach but it appears that that would require dumping the whole database then using pg_restore to pull the function definition from the dump.

One other thing that would be nice to have for function-dumping whether in pg_dump or using the -Fc approach would be the ability to dump all functions of a given name instead of having to go one-by-one. It's pretty unusual for identically-named functions to have unrelated purposes.

Cheers,
Steve
