Knex.js with Joi binding

I'm using Knex.js (along with Bookshelf.js) with a PostreSQL DB and I'm trying to "extract" the SQL schema in order to use it with something like Joi or Checkit.

Here just a simple example:
The schema written with knex:

return knex.schema.createTable('users', table => {
  table.string('username').notNullable()
  table.string('password')
})

And what I would like to automatically get:

const schema = Joi.object().keys({
  username: Joi.string().required(),
  password: Joi.string()
})

The point is simply to avoid writting the schema twice and having a programmatically way to validated the objects, before passing it to bookshelf/knex. Are there any built-ins ways to do it? Or any best practice?
