WordPress development workflow using Bedrock and Docker

DockPress

DockPress is a dockerized version of WordPress inspired heavily by the Roots.io approach to managing a modern WordPress application.

Features

• Pre-defined development workflow using a single script
• Support for simple initialization of Bedrock and Sage
• Composer package management
• WP-CLI commands for easier administration

Requirements

• Docker - Install

Installation

1. Run the initialization command with the develop script:

./develop init your-theme-name

2. Update environment variables in src/.env file:

• 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.dev)
• WP_SITEURL - Full URL to WordPress including subdirectory (http://example.dev/wp)
• AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_KEY, LOGGED_IN_KEY, NONCE_KEY, AUTH_SALT, SECURE_AUTH_SALT, LOGGED_IN_SALT, NONCE_SALT - Generate these at https://roots.io/salts.html

The develop script sets defaults for the DB environment variables so if you aren't using custom values you should specify the following values:

DB_NAME=wordpress
DB_USER=wordpress
DB_PASSWORD=secret
DB_HOST=mysql

3. Bring the Docker environment online with ./develop up -d

4. Create an entry in your hostfile mapping the WP_HOME address to 127.0.0.1

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