Make packages for apt-get, homebrew etc. about wp-cli

[andreascreten]

I have issued a pull request to get it included in Homebrew.

You should be able to install wp-cli by running brew install wp-cli once merged.

[andreascreten]

I issued a new, updated, pull request. Still waiting for someone to do the apt-get package.

I moved the bash scripts to the bin directory to make creating the .deb package easier.

You'll probably have to re-create your symlinks. Updated readme.

[andreascreten]

Maybe we should also introduce a core folder or something like that. It would include all the files that make wp-cli. And a library folder for the 3th party things we are using.

[andreascreten]

My pull request for Homebrew is still pending, they are a bit slow I guess because of the number of pull requests they get a day. I have a new Formula ready which I will submit as soon as the original one is approved.

[andreascreten]

Btw, can we move the build-deb file out of the bin directory? (It conflicts with the Homebrew install)

[scribu]

So:

bin/
  wp
  wp-cli-completion.bash
utils
  build-deb
core
  [all the .php files]

?

[andreascreten]

Yeah, core would be for the .php files, but I suggest to keep the commands folder in the root.

It would be really cool to make it a PHP component like this:

http://blog.stuartherbert.com/php/php-components/

It gives the project a decent structure, allows it to be very easily published on a PEAR channel on github. It's really easy to install wp-cli, and more importantly, upgrade it via PEAR.

Also, if we convince the php-cli-tools guy to do the same we can have the library as a dependency and not clutter the repo with a external module.

As a side note, phix, the tool used to deal with the component is worth looking at, since it also offers extensible CLI commands.

[scribu]

Having a single update channel, hosted on github, does sound very appealing.

I'll give it a try in a separate branch.

[andreascreten]

On Mac you can now install wp-cli by running brew install wp-cli. It's still installing version 0.1 but I issued a pull request to push it to version 0.2.

[scribu]

Yeah, but it only works on Mac. On Ubuntu, I'd still have to set up a ppa on launchpad.com and on Fedora and other Linux distros with yum instead of apt-get, we have nothing.

[andreascreten]

My updated to Homebrew was merged a couple hours ago so it should be working great now.

@scribu, I would be happy if the branch is pushed here, too, so that I can follow :-)

[scribu]

Sure; I just haven't started yet. :P

I saw that there are no branches in this repo and you haven't forked
it and assumed all brnaches are usually private.

I started working on a pear package here: https://github.com/scribu/wp-cli/tree/pear

The channel is here: http://andreascreten.github.com/wp-cli/

It's a pain in the ass. To install the completion file, another package is required, just for that:

Merged into master: https://github.com/andreascreten/wp-cli
