Usage

Installation

Composer style (recommended)

Include in your plugin by creating or adding the following to your composer.json file in the root of the plugin
```
{
  "require": {
    "WordPress-Phoenix/wordpress-options-builder-class": "^5.0.0"
  }
}
```
Confirm that composer is installed in your development enviroment using which composer.
Open CLI into your plugins root directory and run composer install.
Confirm that it created the vendor folder in your plugin.

In your plugins main file, near the code where you include other files place the following:

if ( file_exists( dirname( __FILE__ ) . 'vendor/autoload.php' ) ) {
  include_once dirname( __FILE__ ) . 'vendor/autoload.php';
}

Manual Installation

Download the most updated copy of this repository from https://api.github.com/repos/WordPress-Phoenix/wordpress-options-builder-class/zipball
Extract the zip file, and copy the PHP file into your plugin project.
Include the src/class-wordpress-options-panels.php file in your plugin.

Upgrading to version 5.x

Version 5.0 is a major rewrite of the WordPress Phoenix Options Panel and there are a few required update steps.

If not using an autoloader, include src/class-wordpress-options-panels.php (instead of wpop-init.php)
Reference the \WPOP\V_5_0\* namespace instead of \WPOP\V_4_1\*
If you aren't using an autoloader, manually load the class files into memory:
```
\WPOP\V_5_0\WordPress_Options_Panels::load_files();
```
The Markdown field type has been removed; consider switching to include_partial and rendering the markdown through a PHP class of your choosing (WordPress Phoenix Options Panel version 4.x used erusev/parsedown)
Update your array of $args to new \WPOP\V_5_0\Page( $args, $fields ); to include an installed_dir_uri key and value, representing the public URL path to your installation of this library (required to load CSS and JS assets used to style the options panels)
