|
||
|

|
||
|
||
|
||
3. **Build the Docker image**
|
||
|
||
|
||
docker build -t indymedia:test .
|
||
|
||
|
||
4. **Start the container**
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
|
||
Then open **http://localhost:8080/wp-admin** in a browser, run the WordPress installer, and activate the plugins you need.
|
||

|
||
|
||
### What the project contains
|
||
|
||
| Component | Description |
|
||
|-----------|-------------|
|
||
| **Dockerfile** | Builds a clean `wordpress:php8.2-apache` image, installs Composer, WP‑CLI, and copies your custom theme. |
|
||
| **composer.json / composer.lock** | Lists the 18 plugins (WPackagist mirror) that are installed into `wp-content/plugins/`. |
|
||
| **indy‑wp** | Indymedia custom theme (built and ready to use). |
|
||
| **config/php.ini** | Optional PHP tweaks (upload limits, memory, etc.). |
|
||
| **docker‑compose.yml** | Docker compose file for a full stack (MySQL, phpMyAdmin, etc.). |
|
||
| **README.md** | This file. |
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
### Installing the plugins
|
||
|
||
After the container is running, open the WordPress admin, go to **Plugins → Installed Plugins**, and click **Activate** for each plugin you want.
|
||
All plugins are already present in `wp-content/plugins/` thanks to `composer install` that runs during the image build.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
### Adding or updating plugins
|
||
|
||
1. Edit `composer.json` – add or change a package from WPackagist, e.g.:
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
"require": {
|
||
"wpackagist-plugin/wp-super-cache": "^2.0",
|
||
"wpackagist-plugin/new-plugin": "^1.2"
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
2. Re‑build the image (step 2 above).
|
||
Composer will fetch the new versions and place them in the image.
