I followed the install instructions at wp-cli.org and am unable to connect to database. I am using a newly installed (this morning) version of MAMP PRO.
which php
/usr/bin/php
echo $WP_CLI_PHP
/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.5.14/bin/php
wp --info
PHP binary: /usr/bin/php
PHP version: 5.5.14
php.ini used:
WP-CLI root dir: phar://wp-cli.phar
WP-CLI packages dir:
WP-CLI global config:
WP-CLI project config:
WP-CLI version: 0.24.1
When I run wp <anything>
in the command line, I get Error: Error establishing a database connection

between the php version and bin directory
#MAMP Madness
export PATH=/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin:$PATH
PHP_VERSION=`ls /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/ | sort -n | tail -1`
export PATH=/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/${PHP_VERSION}/bin:$PATH
