pschoffer / gitpress Goto Github PK

As of now gitpress works only with remote GIT repo.

In SEED mode new instance is created and pushed to that repo.

In FETCH mode the data is fetched from the remote repo and deployed.

It would be great if those modes would work not only from remote but also from local git on the host machine.
So SEED would be able to create a folder filled with all the data but no need to have any real repo on github or somewhere.
And FETCH would again just did the deployment from the local folder.

One solution I thought of is via docker volumes, where the host and gitpress container would share a volume where gitpress would seed/fetch stuff from. But I am open for other suggestions!

However, this needs to be documented in README, posibly we might need some config switches as well to avoid attempting to connect to remote.

This can be broken down to multiple PRs of course.

Please do ask for clarifications.

This could be done by moving the plugin from plugins directory to mu-plugins (only maybe) and test it.

Mostly write some page based on the README in this repo. And make it as homepage + clear the clutter.

The change should be done in https://github.com/pschoffer/gitpress-example repo.

Why?

• So that we can change the version press behavior directly (or not)

Probably using something like git subtree.

Probably circleci or something just to see that docker build won't fail to feel safer before merge.

It would be great to get proper README.md instead of that default README.html that we have there.

In the README describe what is the repo for (to be used as ez testing).
