Version 2.1.1 (22.08.2017)
Since V2.1.0 WPDistillery is fully compatible with Scotch Box 3.0
WP Distillery does all the work for you when setting up a new WordPress project with Scotch Box. Simply add your preferred theme, plugins, options etc. into config.yml
and you're good to go. With WPDistillery it won't take longer than 5 minutes until you can start working on your new WordPress project.
One simple command will:
- install Scotch Box
- install/update requirements on the local webserver
- download/install/configure WordPress
- set WordPress options
- install/activate your favorite WordPress theme (default WPSeed).
- install/activate the plugins you defined in the config
- clean WordPress defaults (contents, plugins, themes, unused files)
You're able to adjust which of the above tasks will be executed. Simply set the desired tasks to true/false in the "Setup Options" section at the bottom of config.yml
All you need to do after customizing your config file is vagrant up
. That's it! With that one single command, WPDistillery will now ssh to the VM, update WP-CLI, install and configure everything. It also comes with an optional auto-update function and integrated support for Windows. Check out the Changelog for a complete list of changes.
For your next project, you can use your config.yml
as a personal template.
- ScotchBox (using Vagrant & Virtualbox)
- Vagrant Hostsupdater (
vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostsupdater
)
To setup a new project running Scotch Box and WordPress, simply follow these steps:
git clone https://github.com/flurinduerst/WPDistillery.git my-project
- customize
wpdistillery/config.yml
(see configuration file documentation) - in
Vagrantfile
, add your local URL atconfig.vm.hostname
(This should be the same aswpsettings:url:
inconfig.yml
) - Run
vagrant up
inside your project root
Done! You can now access your project at the local URL defined in step 3. (or at http://192.168.33.10/)
If you want to automatically update WordPress and all Plugins on every vagrant up
you can remove the comment character at line 26 inside the Vagrantfile.
Using Windows? No Problem! WPDistillery will detect if you're using Windows and if so, automatically convert all files using dos2unix.
If the Scotch Box setup was successful, but WPDistillery failed somewhere: fix the error (probably in config.yml
) and use vagrant reload --provision
to reinitialize the WPDistillery setup process.
vagrant up
will start the machine. The first evervagrant up
in your project will also install Scotch Box and execute provisioningvagrant provision
will execute provisioning. This is where WPDistillery runs its core function which is installing and configuring WordPress according toconfig.yml
. Before that, it will also update WP-CLI and set the upload size to 64MB. Normallyvagrant provision
should not be executed manually but can be used to re-run the WPDistillery setup in case you want to re-install WordPress.vagrant reload
will restart vagrant. This is required for changes made in the Vagrantfile to take effect.vagrant halt
will shut down the running machine.- More informations can be found at vagrantup.com.
