Capistrano::WPCLI
Note: this plugin works only with Capistrano 3.
Provides command line tools to facilitate Wordpress deploy.
Multisite database support changes for The Number!
We have added some changes to allow wordpress search-replace to modify all domains and subdomains for wp multisites.
Configuration
For Multisite
:wp_cli_local_url
and :wp_cli_remote_url
have been replaced with :wp_cli_local_urls
and :wp_cli_remote_urls
which take an array of domain names including subdomains, but excluding the protocol (http://
or https://
).
Important!
Your domains in :wp_cli_local_urls
and :wp_cli_remote_urls
arrays must be the same length. Since it subs out the each domain with the matching index on the other array.
Example:
In deploy.rb
set :wp_cli_local_urls, ['sub.domain.test:8888', 'sub2.domain.test:8888', 'sub3.domain2.test:8888']
In production.rb
set :wp_cli_remote_urls, ['sub.domain.com', 'sub2.domain.com', 'sub3.domain2.com']
How it works
wpcli:db:pull
- Replaces your local db with a copy of the remote db (same as always)
- Loops through
:wp_cli_remote_urls
array - Runs
wp search-replace
on the entire db changing all instances ofremote_url
value withwp_cli_local_urls
value on the same index. - Runs
wp search-replace
to change the protocol fromhttps://
tohttp://
. This has to be done seperately because there are a few places where the url is stored without the protocol and we want to catch those in our first search-replace.
wpcli:db:push
- Replaces your remote db with a copy of the local db (same as always)
- Loops through
:wp_cli_local_urls
array - Runs
wp search-replace
on the entire db changing all instances oflocal_url
value withwp_cli_remote_url
value on the same index. - Runs
wp search-replace
to change the protocol fromhttp://
tohttps://
. This has to be done seperately because there are a few places where the url is stored without the protocol and we want to catch those in our first search-replace.
For Single Site
Gem works the same as the default. (See below)

wpcli:db:pull

cap production wpcli:db:pull
wpcli:db:backup:remote

to define the location of the export.
wpcli:db:backup:local

to define the location of the export.

Configuration
This plugin needs some configuration to work properly. You can put all your configs in Capistrano stage files i.e. config/deploy/production.rb
.
Here's the list of options and the defaults for each option:
set :wpcli_remote_url
Url of the WP root installation on the remote server (used by search-replace command).
set :wpcli_local_url
Url of the WP root installation on the local server (used by search-replace command).
set :local_tmp_dir
Absolute path to local directory temporary directory which is read and writeable.
Defaults to /tmp
set :wpcli_backup_db
Set to true if you would like to create backups of databases on each push. Defaults to false.
set :wpcli_local_db_backup_dir
Absolute or relative path to local directory for storing database backups which is read and writeable.
Defaults to config/backup
IMPORTANT: Make sure to add the folder to .gitignore to prevent db backups from being in version control.
set :wpcli_args
You can pass arguments directly to WPCLI using this var.
Defaults to ENV['WPCLI_ARGS']
set :wpcli_local_uploads_dir
Absolute or relative path to local WP uploads directory.
Defaults to web/app/uploads/
.
IMPORTANT: Add trailing slash!
set :wpcli_remote_uploads_dir

FAQ
- What if i want to use a custom port for rsync? You can by setting your port somewhere inside the :ssh_options precedence. See here: http://capistranorb.com/documentation/advanced-features/properties/#precedence
Vagrant
If you are using another machine as a development server (Vagrant for example), you should define a dev
role and indicate the path where the project lives on that server. This normally goes on deploy.rb
file. Here's an example:
server "example.dev", user: 'vagrant', password: 'vagrant', roles: %w{dev}
set :dev_path, '/srv/www/example.dev/current'
