The problem with a batch file is that you will need to provide the password for the superuser in clear text - which is probably not something you will want to do.

But if that isn't a problem (and you actually know the superuser password of your client) then the following might work:

------------- snip ---------------
@echo off
setlocal

set PGHOST=localhost
set PGUSER=postgres
set PGPASSWORD=the_super_secret_password

createuser role_1 1> nul 2>&1
createuser role_2 1> nul 2>&1
...

endlocal
------------- snip ---------------

Thomas
