Wordpress, MySQL, PHP and PHPMyAdmin are all provided by Docker which makes it easy to spin up new instances of WP sites both for local development and for production on hosts like DigitalOcean.
Clone this repository locally and cd to the client folder and type npm install or yarn.
First, make sure you have Docker installed locally. Once you do, cd to /api to duplicate and rename docker-compose.yml.example by running cp docker-compose.yml.example docker-compose.yml. Now we need to edit api/docker-compose.yml to link your local filesystem with Docker's Wordpress files. To do so, open up our newly duplicated docker-compose.yml
Next, fire up Docker if it isn't already. Once this is done, ensure you're still in the api directory and and type docker-compose up -d. You can now reach your WP instance via http://localhost:8080.
After you're up and running, we need to navigate to http://localhost:8080/wp-admin and perform the following steps to Wordpress:
- Change Permalinks to the Post Name option
- Update your Site Address within
Settings -> Generalto your SSR app (default: http://localhost:3000)
Run yarn dev or npm run dev in the client folder and then navigate to http://localhost:3000.
