Write Poetry WordPress Plugin

Welcome to the WritePoetry Repo on GitHub. Here you can find the source code used in the development of the WritePoetry plugin. You can browse the source, look at open issues, contribute code, and keep tracking of ongoing development.

Getting Started

To get up and running within the WritePoetry Repo, you will need to make sure that you have installed all of the prerequisites.

Prerequisites

• NVM: While you can always install Node through other means, we recommend using NVM to ensure you're aligned with the version used by our development teams. The repository contains an .nvmrc file which helps ensure you are using the correct version of Node.
• Docker: wp-env is powered by Docker. There are instructions available for installing Docker on Windows (we recommend the WSL2 backend), macOS, and Linux.

NOTE: If Docker Desktop application slows down your local machine, you could consider using Local WP as an alternative.

The steps are:

• Install Local WP.
• Create a new website project in Local.
• Clone the Write Poetry Plugin from GitHub directly into the wp-content/plugins/ folder of the newly created project.
• Click on 'Start site' button and you are ready to go!

Once you've installed all of the prerequisites, you can run the following commands to get everything working.

# Clone the project repository including nested submodules
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/giacomo-secchi/write-poetry
# Ensure that you're using the correct version of Node
nvm use
# Install the Node.js packages and dependencies
npm install
# Start the local environment
npm run env:start

If no vendor folder is present, you have to install composer dependencies using this command:

npm run composer install -- --no-dev --no-interaction --prefer-dist --optimize-autoloader

Finally, navigate to http://localhost:8888 in your web browser to see WordPress running with the local WritePietry plugin and Twenty Twenty-Child theme running and activated. Default login credentials are username: admin password: password.
