Run PHP script using drupal bootstarp on drupal site

This is usefull if you want to do some actions just one time.

The drush comman is php-script alias src

On drupal 8 with drush

Example :

drush --uri=drupal.loc scr /modules/custom/mymodule/scripts/test-script.php

Example:

<?php

$nid = 10;

$node = \Drupal\node\Entity\Node::load($nid);

$node->setTitle('The new Title')

$node->save();

On drupal 7 without drush command

1. put the script to the drupal root folder.

2. run using 'php cli'

Example:

php cli test-script.php [NID]

Example:

<?php

define('DRUPAL_ROOT', getcwd());

require_once DRUPAL_ROOT . '/includes/bootstrap.inc';

drupal_bootstrap(DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_FULL);

// Delete a node

$nodeId = 10;

echo "\r\nNode ID = $nodeId";

node_delete($nodeId);

echo "\r\n";

echo "\r\n";

<?php

define('DRUPAL_ROOT', getcwd());

$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] = '/script.php';
