System Requirements

• PHP >= 7.0
• Composer - Install

Wordpress Installation

1. Install required files

composer install

2. Copy .env.example to .env and update environment variables:

• DB_NAME - Database name
• DB_USER - Database user
• DB_PASSWORD - Database password
• DB_HOST - Database host
• WP_ENV - Set to environment (development, staging, production)
• WP_HOME - Full URL to WordPress home (http://example.com)
• WP_SITEURL - Full URL to WordPress including subdirectory (http://example.com/wp)
• AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_KEY, LOGGED_IN_KEY, NONCE_KEY, AUTH_SALT, SECURE_AUTH_SALT, LOGGED_IN_SALT, NONCE_SALT

If you want to automatically generate the security keys (assuming you have wp-cli installed locally) you can use the very handy [wp-cli-dotenv-command][wp-cli-dotenv]:

  wp package install aaemnnosttv/wp-cli-dotenv-command

  wp dotenv salts regenerate

Or, you can cut and paste from the [Roots WordPress Salt Generator][roots-wp-salt].

3. Add theme(s) in public/app/themes as you would for a normal WordPress site.

4. Set your site vhost document root to /path/to/site/public/ (/path/to/site/current/public/ if using deploys)

5. Access WP admin at http://example.com/wp/wp-admin

Deploys

There are two methods to deploy Bedrock sites out of the box:

• Trellis
• bedrock-capistrano

Any other deployment method can be used as well with one requirement:

composer install must be run as part of the deploy process.

Web App Installation

1. cd public/app/plugins/webapp

2. composer install

3. Login to wordpress and activate WebApp plugin
