Magento Bash Script Installer

This is an old revision of the document!

Here’s a little bash script I wrote to help install Magento, with or without sample data. It will walk you through everything, and the only thing you need to setup first is the database and assign a user to the database.

First, login to your site via SSH and go to the directory you want Magento installed.

You’ll need to copy and paste the following in to a file and set the permissions on it.

To create the file, type the following:

  1. vi install

Hit the I key to insert data. Copy the following code and paste it in your SSH window, either by right-clicking or hitting Shift + Insert:

  1. #!/bin/bash
  3. clear
  4.  
  5. stty erase '^?'
  6.  
  7. echo "To install Magento, you will need a blank database ready with a user assigned to it."
  8.  
  9. echo
  10. echo -n "Do you have all of your database information? (y/n) "
  11.  
  12. read dbinfo
  13.  
  14. if [ "$dbinfo" == "y" ]; then
  15.     echo
  16.    
  17.     echo -n "Database Host (usually localhost): "
  18.     read dbhost
  19.    
  20.     echo -n "Database Name: "
  21.     read dbname
  22.    
  23.     echo -n "Database User: "
  24.     read dbuser
  25.    
  26.     echo -n "Database Password: "
  27.     read dbpass
  28.    
  29.     echo -n "Store URL: "
  30.     read url
  31.    
  32.     echo -n "Admin Username: "
  33.     read adminuser
  34.    
  35.     echo -n "Admin Password: "
  36.     read adminpass
  37.    
  38.     echo -n "Admin First Name: "
  39.     read adminfname
  40.    
  41.     echo -n "Admin Last Name: "
  42.     read adminlname
  43.    
  44.     echo -n "Admin Email Address: "
  45.     read adminemail
  46.    
  47.     echo -n "Include Sample Data? (y/n) "
  48.     read sample
  49.    
  50.     if [ "$sample" = "y" ]; then
  51.         echo

  218.     echo "Please setup a database first. Don't forget to assign a database user!"
  219.    
  220.     exit
  221. fi

Then save the file and go back to the prompt:

  1. :x

Now set the permissions:

  1. chmod +x install

Next, run the installation script:

  1. ./install

When you’re done, delete the installer script:

  1. rm -rf install

Comment by Nick Weisser: I tried the installer on Debian Etch and had a problem with the php-cli command. After changing php-cli to php it would install without any problems.
