Bookstore

The Bookstore is a sample project used to demonstrate best practices in developing a WordPress application or website using the Themosis framework.

The project shows to developers how to work with the APIs, how to configure and develop a custom plugin and handle the front-end output with a custom theme.

Work in progress

Requirements

  • PHP >= 5.6.4
  • Themosis framework >= 1.3.0

Installation

The project comes with a local configuration and a MySQL dump. In order to install this demo project on your local machine, please follow the steps below:

  1. Download, from our GitHub repository, the project .zip file and extract it.
  2. Setup a Virtual Host with a local host value of bookstore.dev.
  3. Set Virtual Host root path to the project htdocs directory.
  4. From your MySQL local server, create a database with a name of bookstore.
  5. Create a MySQL user with a username of demo and a password of demo for localhost.
  6. Assign the demo user privileges to the bookstore database.
  7. Import project MySQL data, stored in the project data/bookstore.sql file into the bookstore database.
  8. Open your Console/Terminal, go to the bookstore root directory and run a composer install command.
  9. From the browser, visit the http://bookstore.dev/ URL.
  10. The Bookstore project is now installed. Enjoy!

Notes

The bookstore project is a simple website showing some of the available APIs of the Themosis framework.

The project is composed of the following elements:

  • The Themosis framework core plugin
  • The bookstore theme
  • A books-manager plugin developed based on the Themosis framework plugin boilerplate
  • A bookstore-faqs minimalist plugin using some framework APIs
  • The uploads directory with media images used along the project content

We encourage you to explore both plugins and the theme code in order to get familiar with the APIs of the Themosis framework.
