Joomla-cli is a commandline tool to manage your Joomla websites.

For instance in our development / production environment we've build a [Phing](https://www.phing.info/) wrapper around it to deploy and install our Joomla! websites.

Install Joomla
--------------

[](#install-joomla)

```
vendor/bin/joomla-cli core:download --path=./public
```

\--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
----------

[](#install-db)

```
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.

Other options:

\--dbprefix to set the prefix for the Joomla! tables.

Database updates
----------------

[](#database-updates)

```
vendor/bin/joomla-cli core:update-db --path=./public
```

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

Install languages
-----------------

[](#install-languages)

```
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.
