Wordpress Command Line Installer
This is a command line downloader for Wordpress that downloads and extracts the latest version of Wordpress to the directory of your choosing.
Prerequisites:
- Composer (Local or global)
First, download the Wordpress downloader using Composer:
composer global require "rappasoft/wordpress-command-line-downloader"
Make sure to place the ~/.composer/vendor/bin
directory (or the equivalent directory for your OS) in your PATH so the wordpress
executable can be located by your system.
Once installed, the wordpress new
command will create a fresh Wordpress installation in the directory you specify.
If you leave the directory out it will install in the current working directory.
For example:
wordpress new mywebsite
Will install in a new folder called mywebsite
using the current working directory as the base.
