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.

The following values are meant to be customized for your specific use case:

Available commands:

The repo Command

List

List all available template repositories:

Clone

Clone a Git repository containing scaffolding templates so they will be locally available to the tool.

When cloning a repository, you can optionally provide a name. This allows you to utilize multiple repositories containing scaffolding templates from various sources. If you do not set a name, the system will use the name "default" automatically.

Link

The link command registers a symlink to a local scaffolding template directory.

To create a new link, run:

Update

To update a repository that has already been cloned, run the following command where the name is the registered name for the scaffolding repository (the default value is default):

Where name is the name used when running the repo clone subcommand.

Delete

To delete a locally cloned repository, run:

Where name is the name used when running the repo clone subcommand.

The make Command

To scaffold using a template from a named repository, just prefix the entity name with your custom namespace.

For example, if you set the name to be company, and you wanted to scaffold a wp-plugin, then you would run this command:

This will ensure that the repository containing the company templates will be checked for the wp-plugin scaffolding. In the event that you have multiple template sources configured and the requested template cannot be found under the requested namespace, the tool will ask you if you want to check the other template sources for that template.

You can also use a path to leverage templates found nested in other folders.

The above command would look in the ~/.wp-cli/templates/company folder for the template in the github-actions/lint-php directory.

The init Command

The init command will ask a series of questions and generate a project configuration file.

Data found in the project configuration file will be automatically loaded when a command is run within the project. If a scaffolding template requests a specific piece of information and it can be found in the project config file, then the user won't see a prompt requesting that information.

The template Command

List

To list all available scaffolding templates, run:

Create

To create a new scaffolding template in the current directory, run:

Note: This feature is experimental and is still in active development.

The config Command

All subcommands will accept the --global flag. When used, all commands will apply to the global config file. Otherwise, all commands will apply to the project config file.

Create

Create a new config file:

When used with the --global flag, an empty global config file will be created in the user's home directory.

When used without the --global flag, this will trigger the init command to create a project config.

Edit

Launch the system file editor to edit the config file:

Has

Check if the config file has a specific value:

Where key is the name of the JSON property. Dot notation can be used to reference nested properties.

Get

Get a value from a config file:

Where key is the name of the JSON property. Dot notation can be used to reference nested properties.

Set

Set a value in a config file:

Where key is the name of the JSON property. Dot notation can be used to reference nested properties.

The value is the value to be set.

Delete

Delete a value in a config file:

Where key is the name of the JSON property. Dot notation can be used to reference nested properties.

Scaffolding Templates

In order to use this tool, you must first have a Git repository where you will host your scaffolding templates.

Let's get started!

Step 1: Create a new Git repository.

Step 2: Create a folder in the repository for each thing you will want to scaffold. The name of the folder is the name you will use with the make command.

Examples of things you might want to scaffold:

Step 3: Make sure you have a template config file (e.g. config.json) file in the template folder. This will tell the CLI what to do with your template.

Config Examples

A simple config.json file might look like this:

This would copy the lint-php.yml file from the template folder to the .github/workflows/lint-php.yml file relative to the project root. You can provide multiple copy directives to copy not only files, but also entire directories. If you want the path to be relative to the current directory where the CLI tool is being run, then just leave off the relativeTo property or set its value to workingDir.

It is very common that you will want to replace placeholders in your templates. To facilitate this, you must first collect the required information from the user.

You can add a prompts section to trigger these data requests in the CLI:

With these prompts defined, you can now use the name field as a Mustache placeholder in any template file. You can also reference the name of any property from the project configuration file in your templates without needing to prompt the user.

You can have a template leverage other templates by using the runCommand directive and calling the make command:
