Install and configure WP-CLI in Windows 10 Windows Subsystem Linux (WSL)?
-
Hi,
I followed your instructions here https://forum.laragon.org/post/4647 and managed to get WP-CLI working in Windows 10 locally with Laragon, however I tend to develop on WSL and it would be nice if I didn't have to leave my VS Code editor to run wp cli commands.
I have tried to install WP-CLI as per their instructions:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wp-cli/builds/gh-pages/phar/wp-cli.phar
chmod +x wp-cli.phar
mv wp-cli.phar ~/bin/wpBut when I try to run WP CLI commands I got this error:
PHP Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_HOST in phar:///home/username/bin/wp/vendor/wp-cli/wp-cli/php/WP_CLI/Runner.php(1198) : eval()'d code on line 26
PHP Warning: mysqli_real_connect(): (HY000/2002): No such file or directory in /mnt/c/Users/xxx/xxx/wordpress/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1612
Warning: mysqli_real_connect(): (HY000/2002): No such file or directory in /mnt/c/Users/xxx/xxx/wordpress/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1612
Error:No such file or directory
So I installed mysql on WSL but now I get an access denied error
Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'
so I think I just have to somehow to the WSL WP-CLI to use the mysql version in the laragon folder, is that right?Any help would be much appreciated, thanks for such a great bit of software!
Cheers
