Informations about the package local-wordpress-theme-repository
Local WordPress Theme Repository
A Composer Plugin
The purpose of this composer plugin is to allow you to easily set up and maintain a local
composer repository for a wordpress-theme package on a local file system, and then
be able to require that wordpress-theme package into your root site package allowing
you to run composer install
or composer update
and symlink that theme to
wp-content/themes
and manage any theme dependencies.
This is useful in development so you can separate out your theme development from the wordpress environment. You can blow away the wordpress install without cloberring your theme.
This can also be useful on the server as well, if you only deploy the theme. Especially if you do rolling deploys, you can set the location of the local wordpress-theme repostiory to the path of the symlinked "current" theme deploy.
Installation
To install this composer plugin, simply require it in your composer.json file
or run
composer require stoutlogic/local-wordpress-theme-repository
Using
This plugin provides 3 scripts: init-theme, change-theme-name, and change-theme-version
init-theme
composer run-script init-theme
This is the first command that should be performed. It will walk you through the steps of setting up your local theme repository. It will ask you for a series of inputs. The defaults will be shown in [brackets], and you can just hit enter to accept the defaults.
Then you'll be ask to input the relative path to the WordPress install's theme directory
If the theme package isn't found, you will get the chance to download it from the packagist if it exists. Type y or yes to do so, the default behavior is not to
If you don't, please copy, download or create the theme manually in the the specified path.
Be sure that the version is set in the theme's composer.json file. If it doesn't you can
manually add it. Make sure it matches the version required in teh site's composer.json file
and run composer update
It may be easier just to run the init-theme script again. It will pull the values you already set in your theme and site composer.json files as defaults so it should go quickly.
change-theme-name
composer run-script change-theme-name
If the name you specified in either site or theme composer.json differ, or if you want to easily change both, simply run the change-theme-name script to change it in both places.
change-theme-version
composer run-script change-theme-version
Much like the change-theme-name script, if the version you specified in either site or theme composer.json differ, or if you want to easily change both, simply run the change-theme-version script to change it in both places.
