how do you use Wp-cli on Shared Hosting? [closed]

by

I Have Godaddy Deluxe linux hosting it is shared server, so I don’t have the root password of the machine.

I can create, move and delete files via SSH in my home folder but not in the root directories like /opt /etc.

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wp-cli/builds/gh-pages/phar/wp-cli.phar

php wp-cli.phar --info

chmod +x wp-cli.phar

sudo mv wp-cli.phar /usr/local/bin/wp

I am not able to execute the sudo command.

Can anyone gives me alternate way for installing it?

the default instructions assume you have root and are intended to provide the most convenient use by placing the phar package in your path

alternative 1:

remove the sudo, change /usr/local/bin/wp to /path/to/your/installation/wp, and instead of calling the commands with wp command <parameters> use ./wp command <parameters>

alternative 2:

remove the sude, change /usr/local/bin/wp to /any/other/path/wp and instead of calling commands with wp command <parameters> use /any/other/path/wp command <parameters>
