generator-wpplug v1.0.2

generator-wpplug

A Yeoman generator based on the famous Wordpress-Plugin-Boilerplate for quickly starting a new wordpress plugin.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• npm (javascript package manager)
• Yeoman (app scaffold generator framework)

If you're using Ubuntu or a similar Debian based Linux distro, these are pretty easy to install as shown below.

# install npm
sudo apt-get install npm

# install yeoman for npm to use
sudo npm install -g yo

Installing

To install this generator for use with the yo command, use the following command:

sudo npm install -g generator-wpplug

How to Use

Open a terminal and cd to the directory you'd like your soon-to-be plugin to be created in. This is usually the wordpress plugin directory, but you could also do everything on your own computer and move it to wordpress server later.

# cd into the wordpress plugin directory
cd wp-content/plugins

Now use the yo command to create the template for your new plugin.

# Run the generator
yo wpplug
