Wordpress installer
===================

[](#wordpress-installer)

This package works as an installer for the Wordpress CMS.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Download the Wordpress installer via Composer:

```
composer global require cmandersen/wordpress-installer

```

Make sure to place the `~/.composer/vendor/bin` directory in your PATH so the `wordpress` executable can be located by your system.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Once installed, the simple `wordpress new` command will create a fresh Wordpress installation in the directory you specify. For instance, `wordpress new blog` will create a directory named blog containing a fresh Wordpress installation.

```
wordpress new blog

```

After Wordpress has been downloaded and unpacked, the script will then offer installing Wordpress. It will ask you for the information it needs (database name, username etc.)

If you don't want to deal with it, you can either answer "no" or run the command with the `--no-setup` parameter.
