How can you connect to a database without a userid and password for the database?
Your script does not seem to perform the basic connection call with the right parameters; and that is also what the error message indicates.

reindexdb
REINDEXDB(1) PostgreSQL Client Applications REINDEXDB(1)
NAME
reindexdb - reindex a PostgreSQL database
SYNOPSIS
reindexdb [ connection-option... ] [ --table | -t table ] [ --index | -i index ] [ dbname ]
reindexdb [ connection-option... ] [ --all | -a ]
reindexdb [ connection-option... ] [ --system | -s ] [ dbname ]
DESCRIPTION
reindexdb is a utility for rebuilding indexes in a PostgreSQL database.
reindexdb is a wrapper around the SQL command REINDEX [reindex(7)]. There is no effective difference between reindexing databases via this
utility and via other methods for accessing the server.
OPTIONS
reindexdb accepts the following command-line arguments:
-a
--all Reindex all databases.
[-d] dbname
[--dbname] dbname
Specifies the name of the database to be reindexed. If this is not specified and -a (or --all) is not used, the database name is
read from the environment variable PGDATABASE. If that is not set, the user name specified for the connection is used.
-e
--echo Echo the commands that reindexdb generates and sends to the server.
-i index
--index index
Recreate index only.
-q
--quiet
Do not display progress messages.
-s
--system
Reindex database's system catalogs.
-t table
--table table
Reindex table only.
reindexdb also accepts the following command-line arguments for connection parameters:
-h host
--host host
Specifies the host name of the machine on which the server is running. If the value begins with a slash, it is used as the directory
for the Unix domain socket.
-p port
--port port
Specifies the TCP port or local Unix domain socket file extension on which the server is listening for connections.
-U username
--username username
User name to connect as.
-w
--no-password
Never issue a password prompt. If the server requires password authentication and a password is not available by other means such as
a .pgpass file, the connection attempt will fail. This option can be useful in batch jobs and scripts where no user is present to
enter a password.
-W
--password
Force reindexdb to prompt for a password before connecting to a database.
This option is never essential, since reindexdb will automatically prompt for a password if the server demands password authentica-
tion. However, reindexdb will waste a connection attempt finding out that the server wants a password. In some cases it is worth
typing -W to avoid the extra connection attempt.
ENVIRONMENT
PGDATABASE
PGHOST
PGPORT
PGUSER Default connection parameters
This utility, like most other PostgreSQL utilities, also uses the environment variables supported by libpq (see in the documentation).
DIAGNOSTICS
In case of difficulty, see REINDEX [reindex(7)] and psql(1) for discussions of potential problems and error messages. The database server
must be running at the targeted host. Also, any default connection settings and environment variables used by the libpq front-end library
will apply.
NOTES
reindexdb might need to connect several times to the PostgreSQL server, asking for a password each time. It is convenient to have a
~/.pgpass file in such cases. See in the documentation for more information.
EXAMPLES
To reindex the database test:
$ reindexdb test
To reindex the table foo and the index bar in a database named abcd:
$ reindexdb --table foo --index bar abcd
