Bedrock Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• WordPress Core to start using SQLite Database

  I really wish Wordpress would ditch the shared-hosting first deployment model and grow up a bit. Thankfully https://roots.io/bedrock/ exists to bridge the gap if you're absolutely forced to use WP. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• How do you create WordPress websites for your clients?

  There are ready-made boilerplates like Bedrock and Sword but, at an architectural level, I'm not a fan of any I've seen. Source: 10 months ago

• Modern Plugin Boilerplate - GIT + PHP8 + Composer

  Is this any good? https://roots.io/bedrock/ for a plugin? Source: 10 months ago

• ManageWP - Yes or no?

  As I only really use it for keeping stuff up to date, I'm looking at using Roots Bedrock for my next project. I'll then be keeping everything up to date via composer. Source: about 1 year ago

• WordPlate: WordPress on Composer with sensible defaults

  What advantages does WordPlate have over Bedrock[1], some of whose packages WordPlate also uses? [1] https://roots.io/bedrock/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Version control with git + CI/CD for Wordpress.

  Probably looking for a https://roots.io/bedrock/. Source: about 1 year ago

• Need: Someone to setup WP Docker Image on Kubernetes Cluster

  WordPress on containers is a very different beast if you actually want to use any of the advantages of containers. You probably need to figure out how to run upgrades by building a new image and not with the WP installer (which you need to disable to not have sudden version rollbacks). You probably want your plugins managed by compose and not a user. You probably want an S3 plugin for media. In fact, you probably... Source: about 1 year ago

• Best practices for Git + CI/CD for a whole WordPress site

  I'd strongly advice using Bedrock ( https://roots.io/bedrock/ ) and possibly even Sage. Source: over 1 year ago

• WordPress development with GIT

  No, as far as I know it’s not that easy to accomplish with WordPress. You can use Bedrock (https://roots.io/bedrock/ ) as a Boilerplate for your development process. The Database can not be cloned to each environment that easily. Because every instance is working on it’s own. So if others want to work on their local machine they need a database dump which they have to setup manually on their machine. The only way... Source: over 1 year ago

• SWORD: the merge of Symfony and WordPress

  So, what Sword really is and what problems does it solve? If you've heard of Bedrock, it's similar but with Symfony. Sword is Symfony running WordPress. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Staging WP e-commerce store - How to maintain new orders?

  If it’s a big site, your best bet overall is to keep as much as possible in code: custom field definitions, CPT registration, form fields. Set settings using filters. Etc etc. If you use https://roots.io/bedrock/ then WP plugins can be defined in code (composer.json). Then the rule is to simply make database changes (content etc) on production and only ever sync from prod to staging. Source: over 1 year ago

• ENV vars and security

  Alternative approaches such as Bedrock offers more protection to these creds. The framework leverages ENV vars to store information and provides a convenient way to override configurations according to the environment. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Headless WP experiment I: Low-code dashboard approach

  The last months I spent researching robust and professional WordPress development workflows. In my mind, that always meant git, composer, deploy pipelines, continous integration etc. See e.g. bedrock. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago

• How to use Git for Wordpress sites?

  Maybe have a look at Bedrock; https://roots.io/bedrock/ it's already set up for git as well as a few other nice things like composer and bcrypt. Source: about 2 years ago

• How to install a fresh WP to subdirectory and have the core files "hidden" in another subdirectory? Is this possible, or?

  i've used bedrock before, which does what youre asking for: https://roots.io/bedrock/. Source: about 2 years ago

• Over 90 WordPress themes, plugins backdoored in supply chain attack

  If you professionally build a WordPress site, please consider turning off the native plugin and theme management, and replace it with composer and files non-writable to PHP. https://roots.io/bedrock/ is a neat boilerplate for how this can be done. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• How can I fully automate the deployment process?

  Take a look at using Bedrock and Trellis if you're interested in using git and Composer to manage your WP install, along with having a Capistrano-like deployment system with zero-downtime. Source: over 2 years ago

• What is it like being a PHP programmer for WordPress?

  I avoid it as far as possible. There are far, far better CMS's that are a better fit for a modern developer's workflow - I particularly like Statamic. When I do have to work with Wordpress, I generally use Bedrock since it means I can use Composer to manage plugins and themes as dependencies, and can more easily work with it locally, as well as being more secure out of the box.

• A repository for Wordpress: the whole site or just the theme?

  You should take a look at Bedrock for WP: Https://roots.io/bedrock/. Source: over 2 years ago

• Local development & Staging

  Use version control to store all of your code changes, such as Github. You can also use a framework like Bedrock (https://roots.io/bedrock/) which will let you pull in Wordpress core as well as plugins via composer, rather than having each instance pull plugins in willy-nilly.
