Re: script to drop and create all indexes in a database with parameter concurrently

Comment:
Why don't you simply use a bash script that:
1. gets list of all indexes in a file with prefix 'DROP INDEX...<index_name'
2. Since now each line is a command, input this file to psql.

I create all of my objects inside "schemas". As a result that won't quite work because you need to set the search_path prior to doing the drop and create. The script works for both those people that just use the public "schema" and those that use many "schema". By "schema" I am referring to the name space that the database objects are built in.

Thanks,
