WP-CLI Strip Database Dump
==========================

[](#wp-cli-strip-database-dump)

This is a tiny plugin, which adds shorthands to WP-CLI which allows you to easily create database dumps and exclude sensitive data.

The following options are available:

- `--users`: excludes the `wp_users` and `wp_usermeta` tables.
- `--customers`: excludes Customer related tables for supported 3rd party plugins.
- `--orders`: excludes Order related tables for supported 3rd party plugins.
- `--all`: exclude all of the above.

After running the command, 2 separate database exports are created:

1. `[your-filename]-1.sql` containing all tables where data should be retained.
2. `[your-filename]-2.sql` containing all tables where all data should be stripped.

Important

The created DB dumps must be imported in the provided order.

### Usage

[](#usage)

To create a database that excludes orders, customers and users and save it one directory up from the current directory, run it as follows:

```
wp strip-db dump ../stripped-db-dump.sql --all

```

To just strip customer data and store the dump in the current directory, run:

```
wp strip-db dump stripped-dump --customers

```

Note

It's not required to append a file extension to the filename argument.

If no filename is provided, a random one will be generated and saved in WordPress' root directory.

Important

When the `--users` parameter is added to the command, the `users` table will be empty when importing it to your database. This means you need to create at least a new administrator user after importing the generated table. This can be done using the following WP-CLI command: `wp user create username email@address.com --role=administrator`.

3rd Party Plugin Support
------------------------

[](#3rd-party-plugin-support)

The plugin currently removes sensitive data (i.e. any data containing personal information) for the following plugins:

- AffiliateWP
- Easy Digital Downloads
- WooCommerce
- WPForms

Tip

If You want this plugin to support more 3rd party plugins, feel free to submit a pull request!

As of v1.1.1 adding support for additional 3rd party plugins is easy. It's a matter of adding a class to `src/Compatibility` and implementing this plugin's different interfaces along with their required methods. If your plugin requires truncating of Orders and Customers tables, your Compatibility class should `implement` the `CustomersCompatibilityInterface` and the `OrdersCompatibilityInterface`.

Each method should return an array of corresponding table names **without prefix!** Then, add the new class to the corresponding handlers in `Main` and you're ready to submit your PR! :-)
