This package includes helper scripts for pulling sites down from production to development in an incremental fashion since our WP installation is so big and unwieldy.
Configure the scripts by copying wordpress-tools/config.ini.example to
wordpress-tools/config.ini and setting the appropriate values for each
installation you are working with. Each installation is defined as its own section
and you can define as many "production" sources and "dev" destinations as you need.
To use these tools, add the wordpress-tools/bin directory to your PATH environmental variable. Usually this is done by adding the following to your .bash_profile:
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/path/to/wordpress-tools/bin
When you start a new bash shell, the scripts will be in your path and you can call them directly without specifying the full path.
Normally, you will want to use the wp_refresh and wp_refresh_single
commands to refresh a default set of sites or a single site by id.
For example, to refresh the default set of testing sites for the "midd" section, run:
wp_refresh_configured midd
To refresh a single site with id "2639" in the "midd" section, run:
wp_refresh_single midd 2639
To refresh several sites with ids "2639", "3121", and "2134" in the "midd" section, run:
wp_refresh midd 2639 3121 2134
Note that wp_refresh also supports being piped a list of ids to refresh. This allows command-chains like the following, which would refresh all sites using the "widget-shortcode" plugin in the "midd" installation:
wp_get_sites_using_plugin midd widget-shortcode | awk '{print $1;}' | wp_refresh midd
