What is this repository for?

This image is a data-only container (with busybox for debug purposes) It contains a selection of plugins and themes provided for EPFL wordpress sites

How do I set things up ?

The volumes /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins and /var/www/html/wp-content/themes are defined in Dockerfile and thus available to other containers.

Simply use volumes_from in your composition, along with a standard wordpress.

A few examples

The simplest usage is to rely on volumes defined in Dockerfile

  wpvolumes:
    build: container-wp-volumes

  wordpress:
    image: wordpress:4.7.5
    volumes_from:
      - wpvolumes

  ...

If you want to have a bit more control on the content of those volumes, you can make use of local mounted volumes :

  wpvolumes:
    build: container-wp-volumes
    volumes:
      - ./container-wp-volumes/plugins:/var/www/html/wp-content/plugins
      - ./container-wp-volumes/themes:/var/www/html/wp-content/themes

  wordpress:
    image: wordpress:4.7.5
    volumes_from:
      - wpvolumes

  ...

And finally, if you want to re-use it somewhere else, you can make use of named volumes :

  wpvolumes:
    build: container-wp-volumes
    volumes:
      - wp-plugins:/var/www/html/wp-content/plugins
      - wp-themes:/var/www/html/wp-content/themes

  wordpress:
    image: wordpress:4.7.5
    volumes_from:
      - wpvolumes

  ...
