Use WP core functionality without MySQL\/DB<\/h1>\n

In very rare case, some people might want to use WP<\/a>‘s nice functions in their projects, but without need of any Database. Unfortunately, WP is not meant to be used in that way, however there can be made some hacks.<\/p>\n

Step 1<\/h2>\n

Create i.e.\u00a0my_wp_loader.php<\/strong><\/code>\u00a0and insert this code (just\u00a0change wordpress path<\/strong>):<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<?php\ndefine( 'WP_PATH_', __DIR__.'\/hidden_wordpress_path\/' );\n\nfunction include_wp_without_db()\n{\n    define( 'SHORTINIT', true );\n    define( 'SHORTINIT_WITHOUT_DB', true );\n    $wp_config_PATH = WP_PATH_ .'\/wp-config.php';\n\n    \/\/ check if needed modification is already done\n    $wp_settings_PATH = WP_PATH_ .'\/wp-settings.php';\n    $addition = ' if (SHORTINIT_WITHOUT_DB) return false;';\n    $target_hint = 'require_wp_db();';\n    $content = file_get_contents($wp_settings_PATH);\n    if (strpos($content, $target_hint.  $addition) === false )\n        file_put_contents($wp_settings_PATH, str_replace($target_hint, $target_hint.$addition, $content));\n\n    \/\/check if wp-config exists\n    if (!file_exists($wp_config_PATH)) \n        copy(WP_PATH_ .'\/wp-config-sample.php', $wp_config_PATH);\n    require_once( $wp_config_PATH );\n}\ninclude_wp_without_db();\n?><\/pre>\n<\/div>\n
Step 2<\/h2>\n
Now, in any your project file, you can call basic WP functions<\/strong> like this:<\/p>\n
\n
\n
<?php\nrequire(__DIR__.'\/my_wp_loader.php');\n\necho sanitize_key<\/strong>('asdg:?\/2\\'fdewrgoff3-rfj');<\/pre>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
And you will have sanitized output!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
