LitePress

This is a personal project which will setup WordPress using composer and will install sqlite integration plugin automatically.

The mu-plugins folder contains some plugins I copied from a WordPress project created by Wordpress Studio.

Creating a Project

There are two ways to create a new LitePress project:

1. Simple Setup

Run the command:

composer create-project zaherg/litepress litepress

This will create a new project with default settings:

• Username: admin
• Password: password

2. Automated Setup

Run the command with environment variables:

ADMIN_USER="your-username" \
ADMIN_PASSWORD="your-password" \
ADMIN_EMAIL="[email protected]" \
WP_HOME="http://your-site-url.test" \
SITE_TITLE="Your Site Title" \
composer create-project zaherg/litepress litepress

After installation is complete, you can login to your WordPress dashboard using either:

• The default credentials if you used the simple setup
• The username and password you specified in ADMIN_USER and ADMIN_PASSWORD if you used the automated setup

Reinstallation

To reset your project and start with a fresh WordPress installation, run:

ADMIN_PASSWORD="your-password" composer run re-install

Note: You must provide the ADMIN_PASSWORD environment variable when running the reinstall command. This password will be used for the admin account in the fresh installation.

Important Notes

• Not all WordPress plugins support SQLite. Some plugins use MySQL-specific syntax when creating additional tables.
• When using automated setup, if any required environment variables are missing, the installer will prompt you to provide them before proceeding.
