## Beschrijving

WP Composer Sync is a WordPress plugin that keeps a WordPress installation’s composer.
json synchronised with the plugins installed.

### Usage

Once installed the plugin should be largely set and forget, however there a couple
of gotchas.

1) Commercial plugins that are not available from the WordPress.org plugins repository**
will still be added** you will need to manually modify the repository (eg. wpackagist,
wp-premium or using a custom installer or repository) or add your custom plugins
first. WP Composer Sync will then honor these repositories and keep them synchronised
as well.
 2) When composer installs a package, it completely empties the target 
directory before installing the new files. As such, the WordPress path should be
designated for WordPress core files only, as anything else (e.g. plugins, themes,
and wp-config.php) will be wiped away on install or update. It is recommended that
you _keep your wp-config.php file in the parent directory of the WordPress path_(
WordPress can find it there automatically) and _replace the wp-content directory
with a symlink_ to your real wp-content folder. See [link](https://github.com/balbuf/composer-wp)
for more details. 3) Compposer require versioning wildcards (eg. *, 1.*, etc) will
not be honoured (as WordPress does not adhere to this). They will be replaced by
the exact version number in use by WordPress.

### About

### Why?

Composer is a great way to manage WordPress and its plugins. However in real life
it runs the risk of becoming outdated with the actual contents of the website when
admin users are installing plugins via wp-admin or S/FTP.

### How?

Using WordPress’s “plugins_loaded” action and [link](https://github.com/balbuf/composer-wp),
this plugin will check your composer.json file for any outdated or unfound plugins
and will automatically add them to the require section.

#### Roadmap

The plugin is production ready however there are some additional functions and features
which will be added in the future:

1) Add ability to select bewteen https://github.com/balbuf/composer-wp and wpackagist

2) Currently only syncs plugin and wordpress core, add ability to sync themes 3)
Research some ways to monitor plugin-uploads and changes more effectively (eg. [link](https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/upgrader_process_complete)

## Installatie

    ```

vendors”: {}, “installer”: { “wordpress-path”: “web” } } }, “require”: { “wordpress/
wordpress”: “^4.9.7”, “wordpress-plugin/wp-composer-sync”: “*” }, “scripts”: { “
pre-cmd”: [ “composer global require balbuf/composer-wp && composer global update
balbuf/composer-wp” ], “pre-install-cmd”: “@pre-cmd”, “pre-update-cmd”: “@pre-cmd”}}`
