README

This plugin provides WordPress blocks that interface with the Commons Connect API.

Getting Started

1. Install Lando.
2. Clone the CommonsConnect repository.
3. In the cc-client directory, run lando start.
4. Open the test site at https://commons-connect-client.lndo.site/.
5. You can login to the WordPress admin at https://commons-connect-client.lndo.site/wp-admin/ with the username admin and password admin.

Interacting with the Search API

The Search block requires a running CommonsConnect search service:

1. Change to the cc-search directory.
2. Run lando start.
3. In the cc-client directory, run lando wp cc search status to verify that the plugin can connect to the search service.
4. In the cc-client directory, run lando wp cc search provision_test_docs to load test data into the search service.

Running Tests

Tests use the WordPress test functionality and PHPUnit. They require a running cc-search API. By default this is the local API running on http://commonsconnect-search.lndo.site.

Tests are located in the tests directory.

1. Change to the cc-search directory.
2. Run lando start.
3. In the cc-client directory, run lando start.
4. Run lando phpunit or lando phpunit-debug. To run a specific test run lando phpunit --filter <test-name>.

You can test against a different server configuration by overriding environment variables, as in dev-search-lando-override.lando.yml.
