How to reIndex a mongoDB collection using PowerShell

I wanted to find a way to automatically rebuild the index of a particular mongoDB collection, but this time with kind of different approach.

To make a long story short if you want to use PowerShell cmdlet(s) to work with your mongoDB instance visit the following website - https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/Mdbc/5.1.5 - and read more on how to work with Mdbc module written by Roman Kuzmin.

Another thing is to check if the script actually works:

And the last thing was to add it to Windows Scheduler so it could run daily:
