Command-line script to manage joomla sites

Joomla cli

, _(*1)

Joomla-cli is a commandline tool to manage your Joomla websites., _(*2)

For instance in our development / production environment we've build a Phing wrapper around it to deploy and install our Joomla! websites., _(*3)

Install Joomla

``` bash vendor/bin/joomla-cli core:download --path=./public, <sub>(*4)</sub>

--path defaults to joomla, can be whatever relative to the directory the command is executed.

--version defaults to latest stable e.g. 3.4.0, supports 3.3.* or exact version number.

With the --stable flag you can also install unstable versions e.g. 3.4.1-rc

## Install DB

``` bash
vendor/bin/joomla-cli core:install-db  --dbname="mydb" --dbuser="myuser" --dbpass="mypassword" --dbhost="localhost" --joomla-version="3.4.0"

This command is used to install the initial clean Joomla! database., <sub>(*5)</sub>

Other options:, <sub>(*6)</sub>

--dbprefix to set the prefix for the Joomla! tables., <sub>(*7)</sub>

Database updates

``` bash vendor/bin/joomla-cli core:update-db --path=./public, <sub>(*8)</sub>

This command uses the path to bootstrap the Joomla application and run the database migrations (if they are needed).

## Install languages

``` bash
vendor/bin/joomla-cli extension:language:install nl-NL --path=./public

This command uses the path to bootstrap the Joomla application and install the language., <sub>(*9)</sub>
