wp-cli integration

[emzo]

It would be awesome to integrate this with wp-cli, to enable you to initiate an export from the command-line.

I had a go at this:

@duncanjbrown this is awesome work! I'm just wondering, would it be more intuitive if the migrate output was directed to STDOUT by default if no output filename was given, rather than having to specify STDOUT? I'm just thinking that this might be more expected behaviour for command line tools, but maybe you have good reasons for doing it this way? I'd like to hear your thoughts!

Hi. Great!

The STDOUT option It's only because wp-cli creates a file by default on wp export. I wonder if @scribu has any thoughts?

It could do with an 'in' as well as 'out', too, perhaps with some sort of network connection, see @joehoyle 's comment in my post on the subject herehttp://duncanjbrown.com/migrate-your-wp-database-in-one-command/ .

wp-cli already has wp db import and wp db export. If you want to propose a change to how they work, please open an issue there: https://github.com/wp-cli/wp-cli/issues/

As for search-replace, there's a similar effort underway: wp-cli/wp-cli#118

[scribu]

Oh, and there's also wp-cli/wp-cli#249

This has been implemented for a while now.
