Some ssh tips for blog – wget command

Posted at April 19, 2008

In last post I already demonstrate a few command in shell for helping me, here’s quick summary of those command :

Wget

I use it most for download something, like themes or plugin for one of my blog.

For example :

I took one theme from today weblog tools collection, pick Excel theme.

1. Go to theme folder

al@hostingformula [~]# cd www/books/wp-content/themes/

al@hostingformula [~/www/books/wp-content/themes]# ls
./ ../ blue-zinfandel-2column.zip default/

cd, this command will move me to directory xxxx

ls, this command will list all files and folders in current directory

2. Download theme and unpack

al@hostingformula [~/www/books/wp-content/themes]# wget http://alphablogdesigns.com/xxxxxxyyyyyyyy/excel.zip

–09:23:57– http://alphablogdesigns.com/xxxxxxyyyyyyyy/excel.zip
=> `excel.zip’

09:23:58 (345.32 KB/s) – `excel.zip’ saved [120593/120593]

See directory list now using ls :

al@hostingformula [~/www/books/wp-content/themes]# ls
./ ../ blue-zinfandel-2column.zip default/ excel.zip

As you see there is one file ‘excel.zip’ there.

Now unpack the file :

al@hostingformula [~/www/books/wp-content/themes]# unzip excel.zip

Hit Enter and you’ll see some process :

inflating: excel/searchform.php
inflating: excel/sidebar.php
inflating: excel/single.php
inflating: excel/style.css
al@hostingformula [~/www/books/wp-content/themes]#

Finished, you can see the theme. Ready to use, thanks to alphablogdesign for providing this great theme.
