RK Geronimo Wordpress App

This repository contains Wordpress app, initially created using Bedrock stack. It depends on multiple other repositories like plugins and theme that are added as submodules (no need to download them separately).

Requirements

• PHP >= 7.4
• MySQL
• Composer - Install
• Yarn - Install

Setting Up Development Environment

Before running the commands make sure to install all the requirements mentioned above.

To install and setup everything, run the following commands:

0. Clone repository with submodules: git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/rkgeronimo/wp-web.git
1. Inside wp-web directory run yarn - Installs NPM requirements from the package.json file
2. composer install - Installs PHP requirements from thecomposer.json file
3. ./node_modules/.bin/gulp - Builds static files (js, css)
4. cp .env.example .env - Create environment file and define variables (below explained)
5. Make sure all Wordpress permissions are allright, there could be an issue with uploads directory. If so, run chmod -R 755 web/app/uploads and make sure it's owned by the right group e.g. chown -R www-data:www-data web/app/uploads
6. Import app database geronimo_basic.sql to your newly created MySQL database
7. Install plugin wp-mail-smtp, manually or using WP CLI wp plugin install wp-mail-smtp --activate
8. Setup Apache virtual host http://local.rkgeronimo the document root on the webserver to the web folder: /path/to/site/web/
9. Map the hostname by editing your local /etc/hosts file and adding entry for the domain (http://local.rkgeronimo) next to localhost.
10. (optional) Make sure php-zip extension is enabled if you want to use feature to download all photos from applicants in a course. Extension can be installed using sudo apt-get install php7.4-zip. This is not necessary for anything else and app will work without it, just not the part with ZipArchive.

Note: If you are using other virual host and other domain, then domain replacements in the database should be made. This can be easily done through WP-CLI: wp search-replace 'http://local.rkgeronimo' 'new'. WP-CLI plugin can be used for similar data updates e.g. user password changing.
