How to use wp-cli with a non-standard wp-config.php location
You are running a customized WordPress install where your configurations are NOT located in one of the two required locations (outside the webroot for example) and are receving the following error when running wp-cli commands:
Error: Strange wp-config.php file: wp-settings.php is not loaded directly.###Solution

This works by tricking the wp-cli regex into correctly parsing the configuration files.
