I am working on a restructuring of a legacy database and its associated applications. To keep old and new working in parallel I have created a development database and copied the tables of interest to it, e.g.

create database devdb;

drop table if exists devdb.tab1;
CREATE TABLE devdb.tab1 like working.tab1;
insert into devdb.tab1 select * from working.tab1;

Having done this I notice that triggers affecting tab1 have not been copied over. Is there any way in which I can produce a working copy of tab1, i.e. data, permissions, triggers, everything?
