The wp post create --post_type=attachment command can create an empty media, unable to be filled with an image through WP-CLI, only through the GUI or other WP PHP Functions (thus creating a "corrupt", better-to-avoid use from a WP-CLI user?)

By other side, the wp media import $filename do not include (according the Documentation) fields like the --post_name,--post_date among others "post"s fields, thus requiring a following wp post update $id_media for setting them.

Hence, it is not possible to wp media import $filename to overwrite a Media image with a given --post_name -WP actually just create a duplicated media object, with a new regenerated post_name-, thus all the wp post exist and wp post delete process must be done "manually".

Am I true with these observations?

I am trying to overwrite a media post using the WordPress CLI.

The wp post create --post_type=attachment command can create an empty media item, but cannot attach an image file through WP-CLI. This is only possible through the GUI or other WP PHP Functions. The CLI command creates a "corrupt" media post. Is it better to avoid using this method?

On the other hand, the wp media import $filename command does not include (according the Documentation) fields like --post_name,--post_date and other post fields. This method then requires running wp post update $id_media for setting these fields once the post is created.

Hence, it is not possible for wp media import $filename to overwrite a Media post that matches on --post_name. If you try this, WP actually just creates a duplicate media object, with a new regenerated --post_name. This means the wp post exist and wp post delete process must be done manually as a part of this process.

Is my thinking correct?

By other side, the wp media import $filename do not allow (according the Documentation) its "post"s parameters to be set, requiring a following wp post update $id_media, for setting the --post_name,--post_date among others.

Hence, it is not possible to wp media import $filename to overwrite a Media image with a given --post_name is already taken (WP actually just create a duplicated media object, with a new regenerated post_name), thus all the wp post exist and wp post delete process must be done "manually".
