DDEV WordPress Setup Script

This installation script automatically sets up a development Docker server with DDEV and installs a WordPress site with clean defaults on that server.

Quick Start

Note: DDEV needs to be installed in order for the installation script to work.

1. Clone this repo to your (preferably empty) project's root directory with the command: git clone git@github.com:jacobcassidy/ddev-local-wordpress-script.git
2. Customize the script's configuration settings at: ddev-local-wordpress-script/scripts/settings.sh
3. Run the installation script in you project's root directory with the command: ddev-local-wordpress-script/scripts/install.sh
4. Delete the ddev-local-wordpress-script directory after successfully running the installation script

Features

Note

The optional features can be turned on/off in the settings.sh file.

This script automatically sets up the following:

• Configures and starts the DDEV Docker containers with a WordPress development server.
• Installs a clean WordPress site with the default pages, posts, comments, plugins, themes, welcome panel and dashboard widgets removed (with the exception of the latest official default theme as a fallback).
• (Optional) Downloads and installs the CassidyDC Development Toolset.
• (Optional) Downloads, installs, and activates the CassidyDC WP Starter Block Theme.
• (Optional) Installs the All-in-One WP Migration plugin.
• (Optional) Installs the All-in-One WP Migration Unlimited Extension plugin.
  • The setup for this plugin is set to false by default since it's a paid plugin and is installed from your local machine. If you have this plugin, you can turn the installation on in the scripts/settings.sh file by changing INSTALL_WP_PLUGIN_AIOMUE_LOCAL to true and updating the path to your zip file.
• (Optional) Installs the Query Monitor plugin.
• (Optional) Installs the files needed to connect the DDEV Docker containers with the Spatie Ray desktop app (used for simple debugging when Xdebug is overkill).
• (Optional) Initializes a local project Git repo.
