cwp db import

cwp db import <file> [flags]

Local only: it acts on no environment.

Argument	What it is	Default
<file>	SQL dump to import

Flag	What it does	Default
--yes	skip the confirmation prompt	off
--with-agent	with —dry-run on a host with no shell: install and remove the PHP agent so the plan is real	off

Plus the shared flags --json, -v, --verbose, -q, --quiet and --dry-run.

What it does

cwp db import runs ddev import-db and replaces the local database with a SQL dump.

It asks you to confirm first, because it replaces the local database. --yes skips the prompt. With --json or no terminal it refuses with exit 6 rather than guessing.

A dump that arrived any way other than cwp pull carries no scrub and no mail guard. Run cwp scrub after importing one.

Example

cwp db import handover.sql.gz
cwp db import dump.sql --yes

What it does not do

It does not scrub, install the mail guard, run search-replace, or snapshot what it is replacing. Those belong to cwp pull, the command that knows where the data came from. This one takes a file and does what it is told.

Uploads are not included.
