What does it do?

This package provides deploy task for deploying WordPress with deployer (deployer.org) and additionally a tasks to synchronize database and media files.

The deployment is expected to be compatible with composer based WordPress projects based on https://roots.io/bedrock/

Dependencies

This package depends on following packages:

• Package which provides some deployer tasks that can be used for any framework or CMS.
• Package which provides some php framework independent deployer tasks to synchronize database.
• Package which provides some php framework independent deployer tasks to synchronize media.
• Package to change domains after database synchronization. Part of wp-cli/wp-cli utility.

Installation

1) Install package with composer:

composer require digitalerase/deployer-extended-wordpress-composer

2) If you are using deployer as phar then put following lines in your deploy.php:

require_once(__DIR__ . '/vendor/digitalerase/deployer-loader/autoload.php');
new \SourceBroker\DeployerExtendedWordpressComposer\Loader();

3) Remove task "deploy" from your deploy.php. Otherwise you will overwrite deploy task defined in deployer/deploy/task/deploy.php

4) Example deploy.php file:

<?php

namespace Deployer;

require_once(__DIR__ . '/vendor/digitalerase/deployer-loader/autoload.php');
new \SourceBroker\DeployerExtendedWordpressComposer\Loader();

set('repository', 'git@my-git:my-project.git');

host('development')
    ->set('public_urls', ['https://example.test/'])
    ->set('deploy_path', getcwd());

host('staging')
    ->setHostname('111.111.111.111')
    ->setRemoteUser('www-data')
    ->set('branch', 'staging')
    ->set('public_urls', ['https://www.example.staging.com/'])
    ->set('deploy_path', '/var/www/example.staging.com');

host('production')
    ->setHostname('111.111.111.111')
    ->setRemoteUser('www-data')
    ->set('branch', 'master')
    ->set('public_urls', ['https://example.com/'])
    ->set('deploy_path', '/var/www/example.com');

Mind the declaration of host('dev'); Its needed for database tasks to declare domain replacements, and path to store database dumps.

Synchronizing database

Database synchronization is done with `digitalerase/deployer-extended-database`. Example of command for synchronizing database from production to local instance:

dep db:pull production

You can also copy database from production to staging instance like:

dep db:copy production --options=target:staging

Domain replacement ++++++++++++++++++

The "post_command" task "db:import:post_command:wp_domains" will change domains declared in "public_urls". Domain replacement is done with cli command "search-replace" from wp-cli/wp-cli.

Please mind to have the same amount of "public_urls" for each of instances because replacement on domains is done for every pair of corresponding urls.

Look at following example to give you idea:

host('development')
    ->set('public_urls', ['https://example.test', 'https://sub-example.test'])
    ->set('deploy_path', getcwd());

host('staging')
    ->setHostname('111.111.111.111')
    ->setRemoteUser('www-data')
    ->set('public_urls', ['https://example.staging.com', 'https://sub-example.staging.com'])
    ->set('deploy_path', '/var/www/example.staging.com');

host('production')
    ->setHostname('111.111.111.111')
    ->setRemoteUser('www-data')
    ->set('public_urls', ['https://example.com', 'https://sub-example.se'])
    ->set('deploy_path', '/var/www/example.com');

The if you will do:

dep db:pull production

the following commands will be done automatically after database import:

wp search-replace https://example.com https://example.test
wp search-replace https://sub-example.com https://sub-example.test

Should I use "deployer-extended-wordpress" or "deployer-extended-wordpress-composer"?

In digitalerase/deployer-extended-wordpress the WordPress and third party plugins are installed manually. What you have in git is basically only your theme. The good thing is that in such case you can update WordPress and plugins automatically. This can be considered as preferable for low budget WordPress websites.

In digitalerase/deployer-extended-wordpress-composer the WordPress and third party plugins are installed using composer. This way you gain more control over what is installed but at the same time to install new WordPress or new plugin version you need first to modify composer.json or do composer update (depending how big upgrade you do). Then you need to commit composer.json / composer.lock and do deploy which will install new version of WordPress and plugins. This is additional work that can not be easily automated. One of additional advantages of this solution is that you can easily cleanup infected WordPress/plugins files as with each deployment all php files are fresh (part from your git and part from composer repositories).
