Is it possible to run php after setup is complete?

[janw-me]

I`ve got a blueprint working. It imports an xml, but I want to delete the extra user the import created.

So I got the following step at the end of my steps:

{
    "step": "importFile",
    "file": {
        "resource": "url",
        "url": "https://localurl.test/content.xml"
    }
},
{
    "step": "'runPHP'",
    "code": "<?php wp_delete_user(2,1); wp_insert_post(array('post_title'    => 'My post',))"
}

Nether php statement seems to trigger.
I suspect this snippet runs before WP is installed.
My blueprint is based on this example.
And here the echo hi appears to run early during the initialization.

How can we run php after everything else is done.

@janw-me this could be a typo when pasting or writing into the GitHub box, but the step should be runPHP and not 'runPHP' as in your example. Let's ensure the extra ' simgle quotes aren't in there and see if that clears this up for you.

@dmsnell The single quotes are a copy paste error. I had them but playground won't even run with a unknown keyword.
So yes at one point I had this typo, but when I created this ticket I tested it with the correct keyword.

@janw-me I suspected it was that but wanted to confirm. can we rule out other problems? how about some lines that echo the users or posts to confirm that this is running before the import?

it's my understanding that what you are doing is the right way to accomplish what you're asking.

I don't thing echos/var_dump trigger during that step.
See my full code snippet below.
Only the console.log output is visible. I don't know where to check the output fot the runPHP step.

<iframe id="wp-playground-blueprint-api" style="width: 100% !important; height: 800px; max-width: 100%;"></iframe>
<script type="module">
	import { startPlaygroundWeb } from 'https://unpkg.com/@wp-playground/client/index.js';

	const client = await startPlaygroundWeb({
		iframe: document.getElementById('wp-playground-blueprint-api'),
		remoteUrl: `https://playground.wordpress.net/remote.html`,
		blueprint: {
			landingPage: '/wp-admin/plugins.php',
			preferredVersions: {
				php: '8.0',
				wp: 'latest',
			},
			steps: [
				{
					step: 'login',
					username: 'admin',
					password: 'password',
				},
				{
					"step": "runPHP",
					"code": "<?php var_dump( 'blueprint' );"
				}
			],
		},
	});

	const response = await client.run({
		code: '<?php var_dump("js code"); var_dump(function_exists("get_posts")); ',
	});
	console.log(response.text);
</script>

Also the WP function get_posts does not appear to exist, so WP isn't loaded (yet?) during the client.run code.

@janw-me try adding require_once "/wordpress/wp-load.php"; before calling WordPress functions. The documentation page could definitely be clearer about that.

@adamziel thanks.
I'll try that next week. And update the documentation.
Double checking , does this trigger after the install? So I could add posts and stuff?

Thank you @janw-me!

Yes, yes it does 👍
