XF 2.0 CLI tools

[Robru]

Where can I find these comprehensive suite of CLI command line tools?

For add-on developers and large board administrators, XF2 now includes a comprehensive suite of command line tools, allowing operations such as upgrades and add-on manipulation to be done from the terminal rather than having to operate through a web interface. This can be of huge benefit for long operations, such as recompiling all templates or upgrading a large site.

php cmd.php list

From the XF directory, run php cmd.php list. That will give you a list of all of the commands available. (Many of them are designed for developers and designers so require specific configurations to use.)

With php cmd.php list

i get

Warning: Unexpected character in input : '\' state 1 in ... cmd.php line 14 and
also an parse error in the same line; so i dont see any list for cmd.php

To clarify, it's not the /XF/ directory, but the home folder of where you installed XF. IE:

NOT /home/nginx/domains/forum.mysite.com/public/src/XF
It works with cd /home/nginx/domains/forum.mysite.com/public/, which is the folder with all the 40x.html and 50x.html files.

That's what he meant by the XF directory.
