README

The goal of Underpin is to provide a pattern that makes building PHP projects easier. It provides support for useful utilities that plugins need as they mature, such as a solid error logging utility, a batch processor for upgrade routines, and a decision tree class that makes extending and debugging multi-layered decisions way easier than traditional WordPress hooks.

Installation

Underpin can be installed in any place you can write code.

Via Composer

composer require underpin/underpin

Note This will add Underpin as a mu-plugin, but due to how WordPress handles must-use plugins, this does not actually add the plugin to your site. You must also manually require the file in a mu-plugin PHP file:

<?php

if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {
	exit;
}

// Load Underpin, and its dependencies.
$autoload = plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ) . 'vendor/autoload.php';

require_once( $autoload );

Manually

If you're developing Underpin directly, or simply don't want to use Composer, follow these steps to use:

  1. Clone this repository, preferably in the mu-plugins directory.
  2. Require Underpin.php, preferably as a mu-plugin.

I recently released the 3.0 version of this project, and unfortunately, with how I approached this build I did not document things as well as I should have. I KNOW shame on me. I'll get to it someday...

So many projects, so little time.
