Installation via Composer
-------------------------

[](#installation-via-composer)

This plugin can be installed via composer, by running:

```
composer require kdm/bwp-recaptcha

```

By default, composer will install the plugin to `wp-content/plugins`.

Development
-----------

[](#development)

Apart from `composer`, you will need `npm` and `bower` for development.

To run test, issue the following command:

```
npm test

```

To build the plugin in a development environment, issue:

```
npm run build

```

To build a production-ready plugin, issue:

```
npm run build:dist

```

A `dist` folder will be created with a version that can be used as a regular plugin on wp.org.

Note that certain files and directories are not needed in production environment, such as configuration files, tests, node modules, and bower components, so they should be removed before updating the plugin's svn repository.

A `.svnignore` file is provided for this reason, and it can be used with existing tools out there (such as `rsync`) to remove the above mentioned files.
