I have been using Local for a few sites that I want to destroy and rebuild often. But I’d like to keep all the site files. As a result, I’ve begun development on a new add-on that will add a button or action (somewhere) for a site that will allow you to totally reset the DB back to the way it starts…

My Add-on and UI is prototyped, the only part left is figuring out the exact calls to make the actually reset work as intended.

Currently looking into a WP-CLI based reset which would be faster. Looking around for how to run a command for WP-CLI on the site container.

I’ve got the code written but it’s failing on some of the promise/rejection stuff surrounding WP-CLI. Will continue messing with it but it’s getting very close now.

Can you paste the errors you are seeing? Or a link to the repo you are working on?

@ben.turner Sure, here’s some of the logging I’ve got in place: {"level":"info","message":"Emptying site ROSiprrEq.","timestamp":"2020-09-14T20:05:15.234Z"} {"level":"info","message":"Command \"site empty\" failed.","timestamp":"2020-09-14T20:05:16.075Z"} {"killed":false,"code":1,"signal":null,"cmd…

My issue was the CLI run method I was using needed to have the string as an array of positional arguments. So instead of: LocalMain.getServiceContainer().cradle.wpCli.run(site, [ 'site empty --uploads --yes', ]) I would need to use this format: LocalMain.getServiceContainer().cradle.wpCli.ru…

I can’t get the DB WP-CLI command working because I run into the same issue found at WP CLI for DB Export, Import not working but as long as your wp db commands work, it should work for you. The addon 1.0.0 is now “released” https://github.com/sc0ttkclark/local-reset-site-addon

Ahh man, I was wondering about that and got pulled away to slack. I’m glad you figured it out though! As for why the wp db subcommand isn’t working for you, this has been a hard thing for us to zero in on and replicate. One theory is that it may have something to do with path pollution, or possibl…

No custom ~/.my.cnf file, and when I run mysql locally from terminal, it says command not found so I have to assume that’s not conflicting.
