Examples
Below are some common examples of how to use the console. They are typically for a recent version (so if they don't work, it could be that your Tiki is too old)
Batch Upload
A console command for Batch Upload so you can set a scheduled batch upload cron task
Example command line usage
Copy to clipboard
# file according to sub-directory name and create missing galleries php console.php files:batchupload 1 --subdirToSubgal --createSubgals # file according using sub-directory with integer name into gallery with corresponding ID php console.php files:batchupload 1 --subdirToSubgal --subdirIntegerToSubgalId # set file user etc so apache can manage the files afterwards php console.php files:batchupload 1 --fileUser apache --fileGroup allusers --fileMode 0775 # upload files from a different directory php console.php files:batchupload 1 --filesPath /var/www/other/uploads # more help php console.php help files:batchupload
Plugin List Execute
Actions can be run in conjunction with PluginListExecute:
Copy to clipboard
php console.php list:execute "Page Name" "Action Name"
If you see this type of error message:
Copy to clipboard
[root@server]# php console.php list:execute "Batch Sync Users" "SyncUsersTrackers" Command not available at this stage. Complete required installation steps. [root@server]#
You may need to update the database schema first, with the usual:
Copy to clipboard
[root@server]# php console.php d:u
Wiki Plugin Approval
Copy to clipboard
plugin:approve plugin:list plugin:refresh
Disable the Installer

Copy to clipboard
php console.php installer:lock

Copy to clipboard
php console.php files:copy 1 /tmp/dest/
Move files from a gallery to a regular directory on the filesystem:
Copy to clipboard
php console.php files:move 1 /tmp/dest/ --confirm

Translations
Copy to clipboard
translation:englishupdate: Fix English strings after modifying them. translation:getstrings: Update language.php files with new strings
Translation Update Examples
For example if you fix a typo in a string which is already translated, e.g. you fix "Setttings" to "Settings":
Fixing a typo in the original English string for all languages
Copy to clipboard
php console.php translation:englishupdate
It will update all languages without modifying the translated part (in case it was already translated), so e.g. in the French language.php it will fix this:
Copy to clipboard
"Setttings" => "Paramètres",
To this:
Copy to clipboard
"Settings" => "Paramètres",
Without the need to re-translate the string which had a typo in the English original again.
Parameters
You can use the following parameters with translation:getstrings
Copy to clipboard
[-l|--lang [LANG]] [--outputfiles] [--exclude [EXCLUDE]] [--include [INCLUDE]] [--basedir [BASEDIR]] [--filename [FILENAME]]
Getting string for a single language
Copy to clipboard
php console.php translation:getstrings --lang=en
Note: The basedir parameter is working only if it point to this or another Tiki root directory (will search for /lang/...)
Users commands
A few commands related to user management are available in the Tiki console.
Copy to clipboard
users users:create Create a new user users:list Display the list of users in the system users:password Set the password to a given user users:unlock Unlock a user
Help on database update
Copy to clipboard
php console.php database:update --help
To mark an upgrade error as registered (so it will be ignored)
Copy to clipboard
php console.php database:update --auto-register
This is useful if you get database errors such as "Duplicate entry..." sometimes
Help on database install
Copy to clipboard
php console.php database:install --help
Note
If you get
Credentials file local.php not found. See http://doc.tiki.org/Installation for more information. message it means you are doing fresh install from command line and need to create the db/local.php file manually first or run the Installer via a web browser.
