WordPress core

This does not provide WordPress itself.

See https://github.com/fancyguy/webroot-installer or https://github.com/johnpbloch/wordpress.

How it works

WPackagist implements the wordpress-plugin and wordpress-theme Composer Installers (https://github.com/composer/installers).

It essentially provides a lookup table from plugin name to WordPress.org SVN repository. Plugin versions correspond to different tags in their repository, with the special dev-master version being mapped to trunk.

The lookup table is provided as many static JSON files. The entry point to these files can be found at https://wpackagist.org/packages.json. Each plugin and theme has its own JSON file detailing its versions; these can be found in https://wpackagist.org/p/wpackagist-plugin/ and https://wpackagist.org/p/wpackagist-theme/.

Running Wpackagist

Installing

1. Make sure you have PDO with sqlite support enabled.
2. Make sure data is writable. Do NOT create data/packages.sqlite, it will be created automatically.
3. Run composer install.
4. Point your Web server to web. A .htaccess is provided for Apache.

Updating the database

The first database fetch may easily take 30-60 minutes, be patient.

1. bin/cmd refresh: Query the WordPress.org SVN in order to find new and updated packages.
2. bin/cmd update: Update the version information for packages identified in 1. Uses the WordPress.org API.
3. bin/cmd build: Rebuild all .json files in web/.

CRON job

The CRON job runs the three commands above. We recommend fetching new packages every 30 minutes. Add this to your crontab to set that up:

0,30 * * * * cd /var/www/your-wpackagist-location && ./run-cron.sh >> /var/log/wpackagist-update.log
