在php中，它很简单:

$pdo = new PDO('mysql:dbname=YOURDB', 'root', 'root');

$pdo->exec('SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0');

$query = "SELECT concat('DROP TABLE IF EXISTS ', table_name, ';')
          FROM information_schema.tables
          WHERE table_schema = 'YOURDB'";

foreach($pdo->query($query) as $row) {
    $pdo->exec($row[0]);
}

$pdo->exec('SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1');

只需要记住将YOURDB更改为数据库的名称，当然还有user/pass。

简单明了(可能)。

也许不是一个很好的解决方案，但这对我很有效，帮了我大忙。

服务版本:5.6.38 MySQL Community Server (GPL)

我遵循的步骤:

 1. generate drop query using concat and group_concat.
 2. use database
 3. disable key constraint check
 4. copy the query generated from step 1
 5. enable key constraint check
 6. run show table

在php中，它很简单:

$pdo = new PDO('mysql:dbname=YOURDB', 'root', 'root');

$pdo->exec('SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0');

$query = "SELECT concat('DROP TABLE IF EXISTS ', table_name, ';')
          FROM information_schema.tables
          WHERE table_schema = 'YOURDB'";

foreach($pdo->query($query) as $row) {
    $pdo->exec($row[0]);
}

$pdo->exec('SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1');

只需要记住将YOURDB更改为数据库的名称，当然还有user/pass。

下面是一种通过bash脚本自动做到这一点的方法:

host=$1
dbName=$2
user=$3
password=$4

if [ -z "$1" ]
then
    host="localhost"
fi

# drop all the tables in the database
for i in `mysql -h$host -u$user -p$password $dbName -e "show tables" | grep -v Tables_in` ; do  echo $i && mysql -h$host -u$user -p$password $dbName -e "SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0; drop table $i ; SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1" ; done

上面的每个方法都包含了比这个AFAICT更多的工作…

( mysqldump --add-drop-table --no-data -u root -p database | grep 'DROP TABLE' ) > ./drop_all_tables.sql
mysql -u root -p database < ./drop_all_tables.sql

从http://www.devdaily.com/blog/post/mysql/drop-mysql-tables-in-any-order-foreign-keys:

SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0;
drop table if exists customers;
drop table if exists orders;
drop table if exists order_details;
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1;

(注意，这回答了如何禁用外键检查，以便能够以任意顺序删除表。它没有回答如何为所有现有的表自动生成drop-table语句，并在一个脚本中执行它们。Jean的回答是。)
