README

sightpress/core: the package that holds every core feature of SightPress, a powerful multi-site, multi-language CMS for everyone, designed with blind and low-vision content creators and audiences who use assistive technology in mind. Written in modern, object-oriented PHP. Licensed GPL-2.0-or-later.

Status: M0, foundations. The installer, the plugin commands, the base admin layout and the accessibility checks are in place; content editing arrives in later milestones.

The core covers sites, hierarchical pages, authors, the media library (local, cloud storage or CDN), the widgets library, navigation menus, internal links that never break, the translation workflow, content planning with an editorial calendar, site profiles, logos and favicons, a home page on every site, the five generated legal pages, SEO and AIO, service email (invitations, password resets, security and system alerts), themes and the theme generator, the accessibility linter and publish gate, the accessibility dashboard and feedback form, the admin, the API, the installer and the plugin engine. Everything else ships as plugins.

Using it

You don't install this package on its own. Create a project from the skeleton, which requires it; the installer then offers the official plugins, and installs only the ones you choose:

composer create-project sightpress/skeleton my-site

Upgrade it with composer update "sightpress/*" followed by php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate. The bundle brings its own configuration, templates, translations and migrations, so an upgrade needs no changes in your project. It follows SemVer; breaking changes only come in a major version, with an upgrade note.

Related repositories

Repository Package Purpose
skeleton sightpress/skeleton The deployable project, with Docker support
core (this one) sightpress/core Core features, plugin engine, installer
plugin-core sightpress/plugin-core Plugin API and code shared by every plugin
plugin-template sightpress/plugin-template Starting point for a new plugin
plugin-<id> sightpress/plugin-<id> One official plugin each

The core depends on sightpress/plugin-core and never on a plugin. It works with every plugin removed.

Development

composer install
composer qa                 # tests with 95% coverage, static analysis, style, boundaries, budgets, licences, audit
vendor/bin/phpunit          # on a test kernel, with no plugins
npm ci && npm test          # CSS rules, then the admin in a browser with axe-core, keyboard and RTL checks
vendor/bin/sightpress-check-translations translations messages   # every string in the 11 launch locales

The browser tests start PHP's built-in server on the test app. You can run it yourself to look at the admin: php -S 127.0.0.1:8123 tests/Fixtures/App/public/index.php, then open http://127.0.0.1:8123/admin. Screen-reader test scripts and the accessibility statement are in a11y/.

To run it inside a real app, check out skeleton next to this repository and run COMPOSER=composer.dev.json composer install there.
