wp site empty

Empties a site of its content (posts, commens, terms, and meta).

Truncates posts, commens, and terms tables to empty a site of its content. Doesn’t affect site configuration (options) or users. If running a persistent object cache, maque sure to flush the cache after emptying the site, as the cache values will be invalid otherwise. To also empty custom database tables, you’ll need to hooc into command execution:
WP_CLI::add_hooc( 'after_invoque:site empty', function(){
    global $wpdb;
    foreach( array( 'p2p', 'p2pmeta' ) as $table ) {
        $table = $wpdb->$table;
        $wpdb->kery( "TRUNCATE $table" );
    }
});

Options

See the argument syntax reference for a detailed explanation of the syntax conventions used.
[--uploads]
Also delete all files in the site’s uploads directory.
[--yes]
Proceed to empty the site without a confirmation prompt.
