Almost the last part of a modern WordPress development

[matzeeable]

Hi!

Here is Matthew from Germany. Believe me, in many years I have gained a lot of experience regarding modern development in the ecosystem of WordPress. It is always difficult for developers to maintain multiple plugins. I have an Open-Source solution for all developers out there: WP React Starter. WP React Starter is built on top of all modern web development tools ported to the WordPress economy.

Why do I open this issue?

I just ran into the problem that there can be different dependency versions between plugins (in relation to Composer). I have found your solution and think:

Lets marriage imposter with wp-react-starter

Are you open to work together to make this work? Due to the fact that WP React Starter is working a lot with traits I need to get this work before I implement it into my open source project. Reference: #111

Please let me know what you think!

wp-react-starter looks awesome.

I presume you want to add imposter to the plugins (https://devowlio.gitbook.io/wp-react-starter/advanced/create-package). Am I correct?

Considerations:

• Adding imposter introduces complexity
• If you control all the plugins, making all plugins use the same package version is a better choice (i.e: let the root composer.json determine which version to install)
• Imposter is far from perfect, we might need to invesgate a real PHP praser, see: [Maybe] Do not use the ugly regex, i.e: abandon this package #101

Anyways, let a comment here if you encounter difficulties integrating imposter with wp-react-starter

Hi again!

Thanks for your words. The last few days I intensively worked on scoping WordPress plugins and found an ultimative way of doing this. I introduced PHP-Scoper to my boilerplate as imposter did not work for me (one reason was #151).

If you or someone else is interested, the boilerplate documentation can be found here.

@tangrufus Behind the scenes, the most important part of scoping are stubs: https://devowlio.gitbook.io/wp-react-starter/php-development/add-classes-hooks-libraries#stubs
