Motivation for the change, related issues

The SQLite integration is adding randomized database directories and Playground currently assumes a fixed .ht.sqlite path. This PR adds support for the new randomized storage while keeping compatibility with the existing storage as well.

Implementation details

Playground already writes the runtime SQLite database path to wp-env.php, but some changes and improvements are still needed. The changes cover:

  • DB panel: Use the active database path from wp-env.php for the database panels and downloads.
  • Docs: Update the documentation to describe database directories and portable discovery files.
  • Personal WP: Recognize saved Personal WP sites through db-path.php, with the existing .ht.sqlite fallback.
  • Legacy WP improvements: Write database metadata in a shutdown handler to preserve metadata after plugin failures and support legacy WP.
  • Forward compatibility: Prefer DB_PATH in database metadata, with FQDB as a fallback.
  • Personal WP fix: Read database size without loading the whole file.

Adminer and phpMyAdmin already read wp-env.php, so their database adapters need no changes.

Testing Instructions (or ideally a Blueprint)

Have your agent use a SQLite integration build from the linked PR. Check the database panel path, size, and download; edit data through Adminer and phpMyAdmin; save and reopen a Personal WP site; try legacy WP.

See: WordPress/sqlite-database-integration#502

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Improvements
    • Database information now reflects the actual SQLite database location and size, including sites that use a randomized database path.
    • Database downloads use the detected database file rather than a fixed location.
    • Sites using either the newer database path file or the legacy .ht.sqlite file can be recognized.
  • Documentation
    • Updated export guidance to explain which database files to copy and how to find hidden files.
    • Clarified that CLI persistence paths refer to the database directory.

Accept db-path.php when detecting an existing Personal WP site before mounting it. Keep the legacy .ht.sqlite check for older databases.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change saves SQLite database metadata during WordPress startup and adds tools to resolve database paths and sizes. Site database panels, OPFS detection, tests, and documentation now account for the current database layout and the legacy .ht.sqlite file.

Changes

SQLite path resolution and persistence

Layer / File(s) Summary
Runtime database metadata and tools
packages/playground/wordpress/src/platform-mu-plugins.ts, packages/playground/wordpress/src/legacy-wp/legacy-mu-plugins.ts, packages/playground/tools/src/*sqlite-database*, packages/playground/tools/src/index.ts, packages/playground/tools/src/get-sqlite-database-path.spec.ts, packages/playground/wordpress/tests/test-legacy-wp-version-boot.mjs
A preload file saves database metadata at shutdown. Exported tools resolve the configured SQLite path and file size. Tests cover path resolution, database access, and metadata after a failed boot.
Site database panel integration
packages/playground/personal-wp/src/components/site-manager/site-database-panel/*, packages/playground/personal-wp/src/components/site-manager/site-info-panel/index.tsx, packages/playground/website/src/components/site-manager/site-database-panel/index.tsx, packages/playground/website/src/components/site-manager/site-info-panel/*, packages/playground/website/playwright/e2e/website-ui.spec.ts
Both panels display the resolved database path and size, with loading and unavailable states. The personal panel passes the resolved path to downloads. Boot state controls panel loading and boot notices. E2E coverage checks the runtime-reported path.
OPFS database detection
packages/playground/personal-wp/src/lib/state/redux/boot-site-client*
OPFS detection checks for db-path.php and falls back to .ht.sqlite when the first lookup throws. Tests cover both markers and the case where neither exists.
Database persistence and export documentation
packages/docs/site/docs/developers/05-local-development/04-wp-playground-cli.md, packages/docs/site/docs/main/quick-start-guide.md
The CLI guide points to the database directory. The export guide describes the current and legacy database layouts and instructs readers to copy the full database directory.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

dataSqlPath/FQDB configuration used by wp-env.php, exclude that path and its

Use WordPress environment metadata for database paths, sizes, and downloads
in Playground and Personal WP. Share the path lookup between both panels.

Register the metadata writer from a common preload and save at PHP shutdown
so a failing site MU plugin does not prevent database recovery. Support
legacy WordPress through the same writer, and ignore requests without a
WordPress database object.

Verify active custom paths, failed-boot recovery, and legacy metadata.

Related: WordPress/sqlite-database-integration#502
Point the CLI guide to database directories and explain randomized and legacy layouts in the export guide. Keep the database directory together when copying a site.

Related: WordPress/sqlite-database-integration#502
Read filesystem metadata instead of copying the database into JavaScript just to determine its size.
Use DB_PATH when defined so the saved metadata follows its precedence over FQDB. Keep FQDB as the fallback for older SQLite integration versions.

LGTM 👍 ! I only added two nice to have if you decide to change that but they are not mandatory.

Replace deprecated run() calls with runStream(). Read stdout, stderr, and the exit code, and reject PHP failures before accepting a database path or size.
