n98-magerun is a PHP command-line tool billed as the swiss army knife for Magento 1 developers, sysadmins and devops, offering a large set of tested commands for tasks like database dumps, reindexing, cache flushing and system checks. Commands are extendable via a module API, though development of the Magento 1 version has been officially discontinued (OpenMage maintains a fork).
Use cases
- dump a Magento database from the command line
- flush Magento cache and reindex data via CLI
- run Magento setup scripts incrementally
- automate Magento admin and sysadmin tasks
- extend Magento CLI with custom commands via a module API
- check Magento system configuration from the terminal
When to choose
- you maintain a legacy Magento 1 / OpenMage store and need scripted CLI administration
- you want a battle-tested, extensible command set for Magento maintenance tasks
- you are a sysadmin automating Magento database, cache and index operations
When to avoid
- you work with Magento 2 - use n98-magerun2 instead
- you need actively developed features or official support for the Magento 1 tool
- you need a GUI or web-based store management interface
