Is it possible in MS SQL Server 2008 to export database structure into a T-SQL file?
I want to export not only tables schema but also primary keys, foreign keys, constraints, indexes, stored procedures, user defined types/functions.
Also I don't want the data to be present in this T-SQL file.
Is there any way to achieve that?

You can get a list of the schemas using an SSMS or T-SQL query. To do this in SSMS, you would connect to the SQL instance, expand the SQL database and view the schemas under the security folder. Alternatively, you could use the sys. schemas to get a list of database schemas and their respective owners.
As given in below link, exportSchema is use to export database schema to the given folder when the variable-> room. schemaLocation="your schema location path" argument is set. Defaults to true. https://developer.android.com/reference/androidx/room/Database#exportSchema()
Right-click on the database name, then select "Tasks" > "Export data..." from the object explorer. The SQL Server Import/Export wizard opens; click on "Next". Provide authentication and select the source from which you want to copy the data; click "Next". Specify where to copy the data to; click on "Next".
You can generate scripts to a file via SQL Server Management Studio, here are the steps:
MSDN Generate Scripts
When generating the scripts, there is an area that will allow you to script, constraints, keys, etc. From SQL Server 2008 R2 there is an Advanced Option under scripting:

In the picture you can see. In the set script options, choose the last option: Types of data to script you click at the right side and you choose what you want. This is the option you should choose to export a schema and data
