to build the webpack bundle:

- Localhost is the Root directory of all your WP installs
- There is at least one WP installation in the Root
- You will install all new WP sites in the Root directory
- You have the pre-requisites as described below
This app runs only in Mac with cli commands executed by Terminal.app.
basically, you need to:
- Setup export $PATH variables, esp. if you're running MAMP.
- Install the latest version of npm and run install in the app directory.
- Install the latest version of composer (recommended globally) and run install in the app directory.
- Install the latest version of wp-cli (recommended globally).
If you're running PHP on MAMP, a .bash_profile adjustment needed. Exporting Path as best practice is as below. You may copy and paste these settings in your file. I am running MAMP version 5.6.31. But any version is extracted by the script.
### MAMP version (5.6.31)
## ls /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/ | sort -n | tail -2 | head -1
## /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.6.31/bin
## export PATH=/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin:$PATH
PHP_VERSION=$(ls /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/ | sort -n | tail -2 | head -1)
export PATH=/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/${PHP_VERSION}/bin:$PATH
You can echo your PATH by $ echo $PATH
in your Terminal window. This path info will be crucial for running wp-cli commands. Please copy and save this path info in your .env file.
You need npm to install all dependencies, including composer. Since you're on a Mac environment, you have probably a version of npm + node installed in your system. For updating your versions and further upgrading options, please visit docs.nmpjs.com
For the dependencies listed in package.json, run $ npm install
in your admin folder with Terminal.app
Composer can be installed by the instructions in its site getcomposer.org and I highly recommend to install it Globally.
Composer dependencies are hooked in config.php. To install and create the vendor folder, in your Terminal.app (and of course in the install directory of the app) run $ composer install
.
Installing wp-cli is well documented in its site: wp-cli. If you're lucky with previous installs of npm and composer, this will run like a charm.
OZwpCli uses packages from wp-cli, which you may find the index of packages here: wp-cli/packages.
Find WordPress installations on the filesystem.
$ wp package install wp-cli/find-command
You may encounter memory problems and you can find solutions here. Script below works for me:
$ php -d memory_limit=512M "$(which wp)" package install wp-cli/find-command
Opens wp-admin in default browser
$ wp package install wp-cli/admin-command
You may encounter memory problems and you can find solutions here. Script below works for me:
$ php -d memory_limit=650M "$(which wp)" package install wp-cli/admin-command
- config.php immediately creates a .env file in the root folder from a sample.env file.
- EXPORT_PATH
this environmental variable should be received from Terminal.app by typing
$ echo $PATH
which is the export path variable in your .bash_profile. Copy the output and paste in .env file directly. - mysql_PATH this is for 'env: mysql: No such file or directory' error, which occurs i.e. with WP Config command.
- rooturl Where you run this app (Usually localhost)
- DB parameters Database parameters: DB_HOST, DB_USER and DB_PASS.
- WP admin user info Your admin credentials: admin_user, admin_mail, admin_password, display_name and description (Bio).
- EXPORT_PATH
this environmental variable should be received from Terminal.app by typing
code is fun...
