postgresql - Flyway multiple metadata tables in one schema

I'm trying to use Flyway to version the database of a modular application. Each module has its own separate set of tables, and migration scripts that will control the versioning of that set of tables.

Flyway allows me to specify a different metadata table for each module - this way I can version each module independently. When I try to upgrade the application, I run a migration process for each module, each with its own table and set of scripts. Note that these tables are all in the same schema.

However, when I try to migrate my application, the first migration is the only one that works. Subsequent migrations fail with the following exception: org.flywaydb.core.api.FlywayException: Found non-empty schema(s) "public" without metadata table! Use baseline() or set baselineOnMigrate to true to initialize the metadata table.

If I create the metadata table for each module manually, migrations for each module work correctly. Creating the table myself rather than having Flyway create it for me seems like a hack to work around a problem, rather than a solution in itself.

Is this a valid way of managing multiple sets of tables independently, or is there a better way of doing this? Is it a valid approach to create the metadata table myself?

An ideal solution for you would be to split your modules into schemas. This gives you an effective unit of isolation per module and is also a natural fit for modular applications (modules completely isolated and self managing), rather than dumping everything into a single schema (especially public). eg

application_database
    ├── public
    ├── module_1
    │?? ├── schema_version
    │?? ├── m1_t1
    │   └── m1_t2
    ├── module_2
    │?? ├── schema_version
    │?? ├── m2_t1
    │   └── m2_t2
    ...

Your second option is to remain using the public schema to host all tables, but use an individual schema for each schema_version. This is less refactoring effort but certainly a less elegant design than that mentioned above. eg

application_database
    ├── public
    │?? ├── m1_t1
    │   ├── m1_t2
    │?? ├── m2_t1
    │   └── m2_t2
    ├── module_1
    │?? └── schema_version
    │
    ├── module_2
    │?? └── schema_version
    ...
