local-ssl for Mac.

Creates a Local Certificate authority, generates local certs, and wires it up to Docker Compose.

You might to have to regenerate your SSL Certs if you want this to work on Mac 10.15 Sorry, but Apple did it.

Getting Started

Please don't run this on a PC. I have no idea what'll happen.

• run npx degit WraithKenny/dev
• do some light search and replace on a few strings like some-theme (rename folder too), wordpress.org.test, and Some_Theme, and sometheme.
• then npm i && npm run dev

The last command will do a lot of things.

1. Set a domain in your hosts file (default www.wordpress.org.test but feel free to search/replace in in all of the files before running it.)
2. Install a local Certificate Authority if you don't have one. (Will ask you to set a password) This is saved in your user root ~ for future usage.
3. Will attempt to Trust the CA (will prompt for user password)
4. Create a local Cert (Will prompt you for your local-CA password)
5. Install npm packages like normal
6. Will start up, and bring down Docker, to set up your Volumes.
7. Will install composer files (Coding Standard & themes/plugins)
8. Will restart Docker
9. Will start Webpack and BrowserSync in dev mode, opening your browser to your SSL dev environment with Hot Reloading.

The URL variable and the local domain

There's an npm script for adding your local domain to your hosts file. Change URL to match what's in ./dev-config/localhost.ext

This URL variable is used (and should be changed) in 3 locations

1. package.json (in the "add-localhost" script)
2. gulpfile.babel.js (host and proxy fields for BrowserSync)
3. localhost.ext (the file that is used to generate the SSL Cert)

The Docker Compose file

The docker-compose.yml file is pretty generic, except its set up for SSL (by mounting some config files and your certs), and it uses environmental vars.

Feel free to change the .env file vars. COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME is so Composer doesn't get confused between projects that are in folders with the same name. Also rename your theme folder which is named some-theme in this repo with whatever you change THEME_FOLDER to. Keep in mind, I've used this string as both the folder name of the theme, and the localization string in the theme.

Extras

This project is set up for SSL on local dev, hot reloading, SASS Compiling, Babel/Webpack bundling, VSCode boiler, Coding Standards, etc.

It also comes with scripts to persist your database to file, so you can commit it to git if you'd like. When Docker boots up, and it's Volumes (like for the database), it'll automatically load that saved database.
