Auto Composer Update
====================

[](#auto-composer-update)

A plugin that uses WordPress Automatic Updater to send data to an API that updates the "composer.json", add changes and commit. It works for plugins and core.

Installation and usage
----------------------

[](#installation-and-usage)

1. Install the plugin with composer :

```
{
      "type": "package",
      "package": {
        "name": "yeswedev-team/auto-composer-update",
        "version": "3.0.0",
        "type": "wordpress-plugin",
        "dist": {
          "type": "zip",
          "url": "https://github.com/yeswedev-team/auto-composer-update/archive/refs/tags/{%VERSION}.zip"
        },
        "require": {
          "guzzlehttp/guzzle": "^7.8"
        }
      }
}

```

2. Add the `WP_CURRENT_PATH`, `GIT_REPOSITORY`, `GIT_BRANCH`, `UPDATE_REPOSITORY (true or false)` and `API_UPDATE_WORDPRESS` environment variable, which points to the path of the WordPress project
3. In your WordPress configuration, check the presence of these lines on the environment you want
    1. `Config::define('AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED', false);`
    2. `Config::define('FS_METHOD', 'direct');`
    3. `Config::define('WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE', true);`
    4. `Config::define('DISALLOW_FILE_MODS', false);`
4. Ensure that all maintainers can push on the branch concerned.
5. Go to back-office and enable the plugin.
6. Wait for WordPress Automatic Updater or use CLI to trigger it : `wp eval 'do_action("wp_maybe_auto_update");'`

Help
----

[](#help)

When the update fail, WordPress may add a '.lock' into the wp\_options table, normally it will expire before the next trigger of the WordPress Automatic Updater, but you can also remove it manually : `DELETE FROM 'wp_options' WHERE 'option_name' LIKE '%.lock%';` to be sure.
