With the new version of WordPress 4.0 Beta2 available to download and test, here’s how to use wp-cli to download and configure it all from the Terminal, you need to have wp-cli and MySQL installed as well as the rest of a working AMP stack.

Launch Terminal and [optionally] create and change directory into your desired webroot.

Replace the placeholders in square brackets[] with your values and remove the square brackets.

Replace the placeholders in double quotes “” with your values and either keep or remove the double quotes.

Create a new blank database
