WordPress Composer Skeleton

Why?

Installing WordPress using Composer makes Wordpress a dependency of the current project, which is typically focussed on the development of a theme. It keeps the WordPress core and plugins out of source control, and makes it very easy to update or roll back versions by updating the composer.json file.

Dependencies

  • Composer
  • All the usual Wordpress dependencies

How to use

  • Clone this repository
  • Remove the git history and origin info if desired by deleting the .git directory
  • Copy sample-local-config.php to local-config.php and update with the relevant details. The local-config.php file contains sensitive information and is not (and should not) be committed to source control.
  • From the repository root, run composer install. This will download the wordpress core, selected plugins and themes as defined in composer.json
  • If additional plugins are required, locate them on https://wpackagist.org/, update composer.json and run composer install
