pg_dump -s maybe?

See man pg_dump:

-s

--schema-only
Dump only the object definitions (schema), not data.

Usually one dumps the database with -Fc and then construct
SQL for data and DDL via pg_restore from this binary dump.
You can then use pg_restore -l, edit (for example via sed)
and use it with -L to only generate SQL for these objects.
