Instalação usando um comando de linha de interface (CLI)

Introduction

When doing automated installs (e.g. in a virtual machine setup), we can use LimeSurvey's (v2.x referred to here) CLI (command-line interface) to good effect. The files used for this purpose (and for resetting passwords as well) are in the WEBROOT/application/commands folder, the one of interest here being console.php.

Pre-requisites

• PHP CLI should be available
• WEBROOT/application/config/config.php should be available and populated with the parameters provided by the automated installation process.
• The availablity of the PHP Modules permissions should match the needs of LimeSurvey.
• An empty MySQL database should be created and the user should have the proper privileges in order to use it.

Usage

For illustration purposes, we assume in our example the WEBROOT to be /var/www/limesurvey.

cd /var/www/limesurvey/application/commands
php console.php

Isso mostrará:

Yii command runner (based on Yii v1.1.14)
Uso: console.php <command-name> [parameters...]

Os seguintes comandos estão disponíveis:
 - instalar
 - mensagem
 - migrar
 - plugin
 - reiniciar senha
 - shell
 - webapp

To see the individual command help, use the following:
   console.php help <command-name>

Sintaxe

php console.php <Nome do Administrador> <Senha do Administrador> <Nome Completo> <EMail ID>

• The Full Name and Password are enclosed in double quotes if they contain spaces or other special characters.
• All the other parameters like DB Name, DB Type, DB User, DB Password etc. are to be populated in the config.php file before script execution.
• The script should be executed from and in the WEBROOT/application/commands folder only.

Exemplo

cd /var/www/limesurvey/application/commands
php console.php install limeadmin pwd123 Admin admin@mydomain.com

outputs the following text:

/var/www/limesurvey/installer/sql/create-mysql.sql

and the database should be properly installed at the moment.
