WordPress + Gatsby + Preview Starter

The repository contains a WordPress Docker container plus a Gatsby theme that supports live previews and a starter site.

🚀 Quick start

1. Clone this repo.

2. Rename theme/sample.env > .env & enter creds. Hint: current creds will work.

3. In the root of the repo run yarn

4. docker-compose up

5. Run through WordPress install @ http://localhost:3030

6. Activate WPGraphQL plugin

7. Activate WP Headless theme

8. Enable Permalinks

9. Fire up the Gatsby Starter Site: In the root of the project run yarn workspace site develop

10. Navigate to the "Hello World" post, change something & click the preview button

Custom Post Type Previews?

Yes! The included WordPress theme registers a beer custom post type. Simply add a beer post and click the preview button.

Known limitations:

1. Both the WordPress Docker container need to run on the same domain. Locally this is, of course, localhost:anyport. In production, this could also be https://mydomain.com + https://data.mydomain.com.

2. Gutenberg is disabled. There are some outstanding bugs in regards to filtering preview_post_link noted here.

3. Gatsby must run on port :8000. Access-Control-Allow-Origin header is hard-coded in to 8000 in headers.php
