How to run?

This is a detatched development repository and uses docker to provide the development environment. You can engage the environment by running the following command...

docker-compose -f .docker/dev/docker-compose.yml up

There is a convenience script included in the composer.json so you can run:

Start Services

docker-compose -f .docker/dev/docker-compose.yml up -d

Stop Services

docker-compose -f .docker/dev/docker-compose.yml down

This will give you two services:

• (app.wp) Wordpress/Apache (PHP7.4) Service, the official Wordpress docker image.
• (app.db) Mysql 5.7 database

Connect to Mysql Server

The Mysql Server forwards ports from 3306 to 33060. You can connect with the following very secure and original details:-

Host: 127.0.0.1 (localhost) Username: wordpress Password: wordpress Database: wordpress

Visit the Dev Site

You can visit the dev site at: http://localhost:8000

Plugins

Plugins go into the src/plugins or src/mu-plugins directory, depending on their importance. Any plugins that can be just installed a build time can be added to the root composer.json and will be installed as part of the build process. If any plugins are not available in https://wpackagist.org/ then they can be added manually to the src/plugins dir and added to the .gitignore so they can be kept inside the repo.

Themes

To install the starter theme, change to the src/themes/starter-theme directory and run the following command:-

composer install
npm install
npm run dev

You can refer to the theme's included README.md file for further instructions on using it.
