Composer WordPress Autoloader
=============================

[](#composer-wordpress-autoloader)

[![Latest Version on Packagist](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/7831a2d138777807d8d666910841f253cdc849bb57c2d79adf86bc5263d81874/68747470733a2f2f696d672e736869656c64732e696f2f7061636b61676973742f762f616c6c6579696e7465726163746976652f636f6d706f7365722d776f726470726573732d6175746f6c6f616465722e7376673f7374796c653d666c61742d737175617265)](https://packagist.org/packages/alleyinteractive/composer-wordpress-autoloader)[![Tests](https://github.com/alleyinteractive/composer-wordpress-autoloader/actions/workflows/tests.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/alleyinteractive/composer-wordpress-autoloader/actions/workflows/tests.yml)

Autoload WordPress files configured via Composer that support the [WordPress Coding Standards](https://developer.wordpress.org/coding-standards/wordpress-coding-standards/php/)using [alleyinteractive/wordpress-autoloader](https://github.com/alleyinteractive/wordpress-autoloader). Will load the autoloaded classes defined in your package and all autoloaded classes in your dependencies.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install the package via Composer:

```
composer require alleyinteractive/composer-wordpress-autoloader
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
{
  "extra": {
    "wordpress-autoloader": {
      "autoload": {
        "My_Plugin_Namespace\\": "src/",
      },
      "autoload-dev": {
        "My_Plugin_Namespace\\Tests\\": "tests/",
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Once added, you can load `vendor/autoload.php` as normal and the autoloader will handle the rest. If that doesn't work, see [Automatically Injecting WordPress Autoloader](#automatically-injecting-wordpress-autoloader).

### Automatically Injecting WordPress Autoloader

[](#automatically-injecting-wordpress-autoloader)

By default Composer WordPress Autoloader will automatically load the WordPress autoloader. This is done by adding `src/autoload.php` as an autoloaded file to Composer. However, this may not always work under some circumstances including symlinks. When necessary, you can opt to inject the `vendor/wordpress-autoload.php` file into your `vendor/autoload.php` file. This is disabled by default and be enabled by setting `inject` to `true` in your `composer.json`.

```
{
  "extra": {
    "wordpress-autoloader": {
      "inject": true
    }
  }
}
```

Testing
-------
