Building WordPress Plugin Archive

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:

• You have installed Docker and added support for Docker Compose commands. Instructions are available here.

• You have installed GNU Make utility, which is commonly used to automate the build process of software projects. Make is often pre-installed if you're using a Unix-like system (such as Linux or macOS). Run this command to verify the installation: make --version

Make Commands

Build

Ensure that ./bin/wp.sh is executable before using the make build command:

chmod +x ./bin/wp.sh

To build the WordPress plugin archive, run the following command:

make build

This command generates wp-dev.zip, a self-contained archive ready for WordPress installation.

Creating a Yaml File

Wp Dev utilizes YAML for service definitions, promoting organization and scalability in applications. By default, it searches for services.yaml in /wp-content/config.

services.yaml follows the convention of the Configuration Files defined in the documentation.

Changing a Config Dir

Modify the configuration directory using the wp_dev_config_dir filter,

add_filter( 'wp_dev_config_dir', function( string $config_dir ): string {
	return WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/custom-config';
});

Changing a Config File

Alter the configuration file name with the wp_dev_config_file filter,

add_filter( 'wp_dev_config_file', function( string $config_file ): string {
	return 'custom.yaml';
});

Using an Environment Variables

Wp Dev supports WordPress environment variables via configuration files. Default supported variables include,

• WP_ENVIRONMENT_TYPE
• DB_NAME
• DB_USER
• DB_PASSWORD
• DB_HOST
• DB_CHARSET
• DB_COLLATE
• WP_CONTENT_DIR
• WP_CONTENT_URL
• WP_PLUGIN_DIR
• WP_PLUGIN_URL
• WP_UPLOAD_DIR
• WP_UPLOAD_URL
• WP_SITE_URL
• WP_HOME_URL

Referencing these variables in YAML is straightforward:

services:
    myService:
        class: MyService
        arguments:
            db: '%wp_env(DB_NAME)%'

Registering Services

To register a service, ensure your service class defines the __invoke() method. Then, add it to services.yaml:

class MyService {
    public function __invoke() {
        // Do WordPress stuff
    }
}

services:
    myService:
        class: MyService

To load services from the container, use the wp_dev_load_services filter:

add_filter( 'wp_dev_load_services', function( array $service_aliases ): array {
	return array_merge( $service_aliases, array( 'myService' ) );
});
