That still doesn't make Postgresql understand YAML markup files.
If you want a YAML file to control what actions happen when, then you must look outside Postgresql for a generic Linux or container tool..

Something has to interpret the YAML.I also can’t imagine how creating a fixed table periodically is useful; seems like it should fail every time but the first. What problem is this supposed to solve?Anyway, cron itself runs periodically - you don’t run it. Just have it execute a psql command or bash script that includes using psql.David J.
