I would do this as actual databases, but Postgres doesn't allow JOINs

How? How do I backup and restore schema independently?

pg_dump --schema= ...

and drop schema, create schema prior to a restore of a given schema



Just be aware that a schema only dump has the following restriction:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/interactive/app-pgdump.html

-n schema
--schema=schema

Note: When -n is specified, pg_dump makes no attempt to dump any other database objects that the selected schema(s) might depend upon. Therefore, there is no guarantee that the results of a specific-schema dump can be successfully restored by themselves into a clean database.
