[postgis-users] shp2pgsql in a bash script question

[Dheeraj Chand]

:I have the world's dumbest question today. I am running a bash script that goes through several directories (and each of their several subdirectories) of shapefiles to run shp2pgsql and put them into the correct PSQL schema and table.  I'd like to be able to set it and forget it, so to speak, but each time, the shell is prompting me for the user's password. Is there a way to hardcode the password in?

do
        ldir="$(echo ${dir} | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z')" >> download.log
shp2pgsql -s 4326 -p ${dir}/tl_2010_01_${ldir}10 public.${ldir} | psql -h localhost -d geotest -U uname -W pass >> load.log
