README

Bedrock is a modern WordPress stack that helps you get started with the best development tools and project structure.

Much of the philosophy behind Bedrock is inspired by the Twelve-Factor App methodology including the WordPress specific version.

Features

• Better folder structure
• Dependency management with Composer
• Easy WordPress configuration with environment specific files
• Environment variables with Dotenv
• Autoloader for mu-plugins (use regular plugins as mu-plugins)
• Enhanced security (separated web root and secure passwords with wp-password-bcrypt)

Use Trellis for additional features:

• Easy development environments with Vagrant
• Easy server provisioning with Ansible (Ubuntu 16.04, PHP 7.1, MariaDB)
• One-command deploys

See a complete working example in the roots-example-project.com repo.

Requirements

• PHP >= 5.6
• Composer - Install

Installation

1. Create a new project in a new folder for your project:

composer create-project roots/bedrock your-project-folder-name

1. Update environment variables in .env file:

• DB_NAME - Database name
• DB_USER - Database user
• DB_PASSWORD - Database password
• DB_HOST - Database host
• WP_ENV - Set to environment (development, staging, production)
• WP_HOME - Full URL to WordPress home (http://example.com)
• WP_SITEURL - Full URL to WordPress including subdirectory (http://example.com/wp)
• AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_KEY, LOGGED_IN_KEY, NONCE_KEY, AUTH_SALT, SECURE_AUTH_SALT, LOGGED_IN_SALT, NONCE_SALT

If you want to automatically generate the security keys (assuming you have wp-cli installed locally) you can use the very handy wp-cli-dotenv-command:

  wp package install aaemnnosttv/wp-cli-dotenv-command

  wp dotenv salts regenerate

Or, you can cut and paste from the Roots WordPress Salt Generator.

1. Add theme(s) in web/app/themes as you would for a normal WordPress site.

2. Set your site vhost document root to /path/to/site/web/ (/path/to/site/current/web/ if using deploys)

3. Access WP admin at http://example.com/wp/wp-admin

Deploys

There are two methods to deploy Bedrock sites out of the box:

• Trellis
• bedrock-capistrano

Any other deployment method can be used as well with one requirement:

composer install must be run as part of the deploy process.
