wp-theme

WordPress theme for ascribe's landing page and blog

Prerequisites

• node & npm
• composer

npm i && composer install

Development

On top of compiling css & js files, this starts a local, live-reloading server with BrowserSync:

gulp

The task assumes the following:

• WordPress exposed via MAMP under http://localhost:8888

The following compiles css & js files only:

gulp build

Deployment

Deployment happens via rsync'ing the theme folder ./ascribe/ over SSH, as defined in the deployment script.

If you have SSH access to the server, you can do a deployment by calling the deployment script:

# do a fresh build of the CSS & JS
gulp build

# Then deploy
./deploy.sh

It requires the following environment variables to be defined, which is done in the deployment script:

variable	description
$ASCRIBE_DEPLOY_SRC	source of CI build artifacts
$ASCRIBE_DEPLOY_USER	user for connecting to deploy server
$ASCRIBE_DEPLOY_HOST	hostname of deploy server
$ASCRIBE_DEPLOY_PATH	path to deploy into on the server, should be PATH_ON_SERVER/wp-content/themes/
