Wordpress: Bash Install Script -- Downloads latest WP version, updates wp-config with user supplied DB name, username and password, creates and CHMOD's uploads dir, copies all the files into the root dir you run the script from, then deletes itself!

I wish there was something this simple for bind9 as well haha

Add this to your ~/.bashrc
alias wpinstall="curl -L -o 'wp.sh' https://gist.githubusercontent.com/bgallagh3r/2853221/raw/f3e2f2fa3048bbeb6d35799af068965bc5fd9b26/wp.sh && bash wp.sh" then source ~/.bashrc Go into a dir you want to install WP in and just type wpinstall It's that easy!

Update:
I've updated the URL to the gist in this comment, WP changed the latest.tar.gz to use HTTPS (finally) as such trying to grab a copy from http::// broke the script

Update: July 8 2015
I've modified the script to add the salts automatically now thanks to @emirpprime's fork.
the new command should be alias wpinstall="curl -L -o 'wp.sh' https://gist.githubusercontent.com/bgallagh3r/2853221/raw/eb5070c1a4f06dc106847f2e53f1b207f8ec7cad/wp.sh && bash wp.sh"

Note that my script does NOT create the MySQL database for you as I currently use WHM/cPanel on our server to manage databases. If you want that functionality please use @emirpprime's fork here: https://gist.github.com/emirpprime/37ef1f355ec5a7ecbb8f.

I think the link above for @emirpprime's fork is broken. A google search suggest that he has changed his github handle?
I think the new link is: https://gist.github.com/phlbnks/37ef1f355ec5a7ecbb8f

Hi pal! I think you must add a database host URL to the script. Usually, it's localhost in wp-config.php and not work for me.
