FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package wordpress-skeleton

Modern WordPress Skeleton

A modern (whatever that means) WordPress skeleton to use for creating Composer based WordPress installations.

Gettings Started

Create a new project with composer:

From here you can add new dependencies to composer.json, remove the example plugins and themes and do any modifications you need.

Autoloading

The plugins and themes you build should be autoloaded with composer.json. See the example plugin line there right now:

Only autoload file that declare symbols (functions, contants, classes)! Not files that cause side effects.

Excluding Files from Version Control

Because not all packages can go in /vendor, you'll need to manually exclude things via .gitignore (or .hgignore, .svnignore, etc). There's an example here with the WordPress SEO plugin which is ignored in .gitignore:

You're Missing {X} From wp-config.php

Correct. This is meant to get you started, not make all the choices for you.

The various salts are missing, for example. You could add those yourself to another file and include it from wp-config.php or let WordPress generated them for you and save them in the database (what happens when they are missing).

WHY?!

Because composer is nice and WordPress needs a good dose of modern development practices.
