v0.1.3 - 20150105

Docker image for building and running the excellent WP-CLI⁠ in a container.

⁠Building and Running

Build the Image:

1. git clone https://github.com/DockerDemos/appstack-wpcli.git
2. Edit the Dockerfile to select the user your webserver runs as (Optional)
3. sudo docker build -t wpcli .

Use WP-CLI:

Option 1 - Manage WordPress in a Docker container

sudo docker run --volumes-from <your webserver container> -it wpcli <wp-cli options>

Example:

sudo docker run --volumes-from my_docker_webserver -it wpcli --path=/var/www/html core update

Option 2 - Manage WordPress installed on your host

sudo docker run -v <path to your document root>:/mnt -it wpcli <wp-cli options>

Example:

sudo docker run -v /var/www/html:/mnt -it wpcli --path=/mnt core download

Note: If you do not edit your Dockerfile to select the user your webserver will run as, you will need to add --allow-root to your <wp-cli options> above.
