Wp-cli: How to uninstall wp-cli that was installed with installer.sh

[jacklenox]

Is there a way of removing a version of wp-cli that has been installed with the old installer.sh?

I'm finding it difficult to work out what the installer script did.

Here's the old version of the script: https://github.com/wp-cli/wp-cli.github.com/commit/2ba5fcd0e53aeb314d4565bff71b72ef06011ea0

Unless you specified an $INSTALL_DIR, the install script put everything in a hidden subdirectory off $HOME (ref).

You might've added a reference in your .bash_profile too (ref)

If you installed quite a while ago and these instructions don't help, you can look through the history to see how the script has changed.

So what is the way to uninstall it before doing a fresh install?

Delete the file. You can find it with which wp:

$ which wp
~/bin/wp
$ rm ~/bin/wp
