Wordpress Packages

Simple package delcarations to use themes, plugins, libraries and WordPress itself with Composer. This repo is just a sample for demonstrating WordPress integration with Compass, and will be useless when an oficial package repository for WordPress plugins and themes exists.

WPackagist.org

wpackagist.org is a composer repo that mirrors WordPress plugin repository, so it should be the prefered method for adding plugins.

How to use

First of all, you have to register this repo and wpackagist in composer.json

    "repositories" : [
        {
            "type": "composer",
            "url" : "https://raw.github.com/cesarhdz/wordpress-packages/master/"
        },
        {
            "type":"composer",
            "url":"http://wpackagist.org"
        }
    ]

And then, in the require section add the package you want as follows

    "require": {
        "php": ">=5.3",
        "wpackagist/wp-markdown" : "*"
    }

That's it, now you can run

$ composer install --prefer-dist

And you get the following files installed

+ vendor
    + composer
        + installers
        ...
        autoload.php
+ wp-content
    + plugins
        + wp-markdown

Composer Installers

All packages require composer/installers, so we get plugins installed in their right folder, adicionally you can change the folder using:

    "extra": {
        "installer-paths": {
            "your/custom/path/{$name}/": ["type:wordpress-plugin"]
        }
    }
