jquery-wp-content

jquery-wp-content is a custom replacement for the wp-content directory which contains the plugins, themes and site configuration to run the jQuery multi-site WordPress network.

Although we recommend using the pre-built VM, if you would like to manually install jquery-wp-content you will find instructions for installing in the INSTALL.md file in this directory. We strongly recommend using the VM as it will provide the same environment as our production servers.

Prerequisites

This setup guide assumes you have certain prerequisites installed.

Vagrant and Virtualbox

We recommend the combination of Virtualbox and Vagrant for a local development environment. Vagrant simplifies download, installation, and management of the local environment VM with a few commands.

Setup

From the root of your jquery-wp-content clone run the following command:

vagrant up

This will start the VM for you, the output should look similar to what you see below.

Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
[default] Box 'jquery-wp-content' was not found. Fetching box from specified URL for
the provider 'virtualbox'. Note that if the URL does not have
a box for this provider, you should interrupt Vagrant now and add
the box yourself. Otherwise Vagrant will attempt to download the
full box prior to discovering this error.

Complete the installation process by pointing your browser at http://vagrant.jquery.com/. Feel free to use any username/password/email combination that you choose, though keep note of the username and password as you will need them to deploy to your local VM.

You do not need to configure your /etc/hosts file for vagrant.* because jquery.com's DNS handles this for you. However, if you plan to work offline, you can use the following rules:

Stopping and Restarting the Virtual Machine

When you're not working on jquery-wp-content you'll probably want to run vagrant halt to turn off the VM to save yourself some system resources. Alternatively you can suspend the VM by using vagrant suspend. You can always start the VM by running vagrant up.

Clean up

Should you need to recover some harddrive space you can safely run the vagrant destroy command from within your jquery-wp-content clone. This will delete the VM image from your hard drive. You will not lose any work by doing this.
