Обсуждение: Vacuum all tables unders under one schema (not under one database)

Greetings,

I'd like to vacuum all tables under a specific schema. Instead of
specifying tables one by one under the schema (not one Database), is
there a simple way to do it?

Thanks and have a nice weekend,
Emi

VACUUM works either on a specific table or on an entire database;
it doesn't have an option to vacuum a subset of tables such as all
those in a particular schema.  VACUUM also isn't allowed in server-side
functions so you can't write a function to do the job.  You could,
however, write a simple client application to query the system
catalogs and vacuum each table in a particular schema.  Maybe that
would be a useful option to add to vacuumdb.

Another possibility would be to use autovacuum.
