How can I create a schema during initdb time?
For example pg_catalog, pg_toast, information_schema are created
during initdb time. Likewise I want to create my own schema at initdb
time. How can i do it? Also how to create a table into this schema at
that time itself?
This question really does not belong on -hackers, which is about
postgres development, not usage. Next time use pgsql-general.
You have misunderstood the purpose of initdb, which is to prepare a
location for running a postmaster against.
After initdb has run there are no user databases yet created (unless you
count the postgres database).
So you would need to do something like this:
initdb ...
pg_ctl start ...
createdb mytemplate
psql -c 'create schema foo' mytemplate
psql -c 'create table foo.bar ...' mytemplate
After that you can do this:
createdb --template mytemplate newdb
and the newdb will have your schema and table.
