Description

I typically setup 2-4 new development sites a week. While this process doesn't take long, I was doing thing same thing over and over again. Each setup required the same files and plugins to be uploaded - I wanted to automate the process. This script was the result.

This script is ideal for people who have a dedicated area for development, e.g. YourDevelopmentArea.com - however it could be used in smaller use cases as well.

What's here is the first primary pass. There are likely bugs and optimizations that can be made - forks and pull requests are encouraged.

Lastly, depending on your host this may only partially work or may not even work at all.

Some nifty features include:

• Ability to download the latest stable version of WordPress - or if you are adventurous - use trunk. It can be toggled with the click of a link.
• Create and install to a directory - e.g. YourDevelopmentArea.com/acme-corp
• Auto upload the Genesis Framework
• Auto upload base theme (with supports GitHub repos)
• Auto upload batch plugin installer (see plugin-install.txt)
• Delete Hello Dolly
• Delete TwentyTen/Eleven
• Delete wp-prep.php after completion

Links

• Github project page

This script is loosely based off of WP Downloader - just greatly expanded upon.

Installation

configure wp-prep.php

• First and most importantly, set a new password (line 16)
• Assuming you want to use Genesis, a base theme, and batch plugin install - configure those URLs (line 17-19)

configure plugin-install.txt

• This plugin will provide the ability to batch install/activate other plugins
• Follow the template to modify the plugin-install.txt as you see fit

Profit. Once configured, visit wp-prep.php
