Vim

https://github.com/AbhishekGhosh/wp-downloader/blob/master/wp-downloader.php

 

Download the zip file and extract it on desktop. There will be a php file, named wp-downloader.php. For convenience, we have renamed it to foo.php in this guide. Copy paste that foo.php file to the same folder as we described on that linked previous tutorial (inside C:Program Files (x86)GnuWin32bin for a normal setup Windows 7 64 bit PC). Open console by double clicking it and run these commands :

 

To make psftp.exe working :

 

Vim
1
psftp.exe

 

To login :

 

Vim
1
open <span style="color: #0000ff;">your-rackspace-username</span>@<span style="color: #ff00ff;">your-rackspace-cloud-sites-ip </span>

 

Change the funky colored texts to real values.

Change your location from SFTP root to /web/content/ directory. In the above screenshot, I have done in two steps using cd command, to show you how to do it in a bit illustrative way. You can do it in one step if your webfolder’s name is www.domain.com :

 

Vim
1
cd <span style="color: #0000ff;">www.domain.com</span>/web/content

 

Now upload the foo.php file by using put command :

 

Vim
1
put <span style="color: #ff0000;">foo.php</span>

 

Instantly it will be uploaded and return back to :

 

Vim
1
psftp&gt;

 

Type bye to exit. Now point your browser to run the script :

Follow the wizard to complete installing WordPress. The script will download the latest version of WordPress in tar.gz format, extract it and delete that WordPress tar.gz file and itself will be deleted. There will be no foo.php on your server. This ends the tutorial for Installing WordPress on Rackspace Cloud Sites with CLI and Script. We will try to create more easier automated scripts, if we get time.
