A framework for building moderm WordPress interfaces. Traditional WordPress themes are cumbersome and difficult to build, and force the developer to used archaic technologies, i.e. PHP templates. NoomaPress is framkework that uses modern technologies to facilitate building WordPress interfaces.

NOTE: This project is in the very early stages of development, use at your own risk.

• Node 8+
• Docker
• Docker Compose

Install dependencies

npm install

The following commands will build the necessary containers to run the project. There will be three containers in total:

1. UI Container - node based app to build the interface
2. WordPress Admin Container - WordPress admin interface
3. WordPress Database Container - Database

Build containers

# at project root
make

# inside wordpress folder
./wordpres/make

Stand up all containers

docker-compose up

Initialize WordPress

# inside the wordpress directory
bash wp-init.sh

Start project

npm run dev

UI can be reached at localhost:3000

└── wordpress               # WordPress initalization script, Dockerfile

Build and run project

npm run build

npm start

Build containers

# at project root
make

# inside wordpress folder
./wordpres/make

docker-compose -f docker-compose.yuml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up

Initialize WordPress

# inside the wordpress directory
bash wp-init.sh -e prod

Docker images are built using two different Dockerfiles.

Dockerfile - builds the image for the UI

Dockerfile-wp builds a custom image to run WordPress

Three docker-compose files are used to facilitate running the project in different environments.

docker-compose.yml - base configuration

docker-compose.override.yml - developement environment overrides. These values are automatically applied when docker-compose up is executed.

docker-compose.prod.yml - prodcuction configuration values.
