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

基于@Dion Truter和@Wade Williams的回答，下面的shell脚本将删除所有表，首先显示它将要运行的内容，并让您有机会使用Ctrl-C中止。

#!/bin/bash

DB_HOST=xxx
DB_USERNAME=xxx
DB_PASSWORD=xxx
DB_NAME=xxx

CMD="mysql -sN -h ${DB_HOST} -u ${DB_USERNAME} -p${DB_PASSWORD} ${DB_NAME}"

# Generate the drop statements
TMPFILE=/tmp/drop-${RANDOM}.sql
echo 'SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0;' > ${TMPFILE}
${CMD} $@ >> ${TMPFILE} << ENDD
    SELECT concat('DROP TABLE IF EXISTS \`', table_name, '\`;')
    FROM information_schema.tables
    WHERE table_schema = '${DB_NAME}';
ENDD
echo 'SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1;' >> ${TMPFILE}

# Warn what we are about to do
echo
cat ${TMPFILE}
echo
echo "Press ENTER to proceed (or Ctrl-C to abort)."
read

# Run the SQL
echo "Dropping tables..."
${CMD} $@ < ${TMPFILE}
echo "Exit status is ${?}."
rm ${TMPFILE}

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。)

你可以:

select concat('drop table if exists ', table_name, ' cascade;')
  from information_schema.tables;

然后运行生成的查询。它们将删除当前数据库中的每一个表。

下面是删除表命令的一些帮助。

我发现生成的drop语句集很有用，并推荐以下调整:

将生成的drop限制在数据库中，如下所示:

SELECT concat('DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `', table_name, '`;')
FROM information_schema.tables
WHERE table_schema = 'MyDatabaseName';

注1:这并不执行DROP语句，它只是给你一个它们的列表。您需要将输出剪切并粘贴到SQL引擎中才能执行它们。

注2:如果你有视图，你必须手动将每个DROP TABLE ' VIEW_NAME '语句修改为DROP VIEW ' VIEW_NAME '。

注意，根据http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/drop-table.html，级联掉落是毫无意义的/误导性的:

允许RESTRICT和CASCADE使移植更容易。在MySQL 5.5中，它们什么都不做。”

因此，为了让drop语句工作，如果你需要:

SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0

这将禁用参考完整性检查-所以当你完成执行你需要的下降，你会想要重置键检查

SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1

最终的执行应该是这样的:

SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0;
-- Your semicolon separated list of DROP statements here
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 1;

注意:要使用SELECT输出更容易，mysql -B选项可以帮助。

在像bash/zsh这样的Linux shell中:

DATABASE_TO_EMPTY="your_db_name";
{ echo "SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0;" ; \
  mysql "$DATABASE_TO_EMPTY" --skip-column-names -e \
  "SELECT concat('DROP TABLE IF EXISTS ', table_name, ';') \
   FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = '$DATABASE_TO_EMPTY';";\
  } | mysql "$DATABASE_TO_EMPTY"

这将生成命令，然后立即将它们输送到第二个客户端实例，该实例将删除表。

聪明的部分当然是从这里的其他答案复制的-我只是想要一个复制-粘贴的一行程序来实际完成OP想要的工作。

当然，你也必须在这些mysql命令中输入你的凭证(两次)，除非你有一个非常低的安全设置。(或者你可以用mysql命令的别名来包含你的学分。)
