wp-plugin-flow-common
=====================

[](#wp-plugin-flow-common)

A small library for bootstrapping WordPress plugins built on WP Desk flow. It handles requirements checks, translations initialization, and startup strategy selection.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP `>= 7.4`
- WordPress

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require wpdesk/wp-plugin-flow-common
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Prepare the basic plugin variables and include one of the bootstrap files:

```
$plugin_version = '1.0.0';
$plugin_name = 'My Plugin';
$plugin_class_name = MyPlugin::class;
$plugin_text_domain = 'my-plugin';
$plugin_dir = __DIR__;
$plugin_file = __FILE__;
$requirements = [
	'php' => '7.4',
	'wp'  => '6.0',
];
$product_id = 'my-plugin';

require __DIR__ . '/vendor/wpdesk/wp-plugin-flow-common/src/plugin-init-php52.php';
```

For a free plugin use:

```
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/wpdesk/wp-plugin-flow-common/src/plugin-init-php52-free.php';
```

If you need a custom initialization strategy, define `$plugin_init_factory` before including the bootstrap file.

Tests
-----

[](#tests)

```
composer phpunit-unit-fast
composer phpunit-integration-fast
```
