# WP Composer Auto Updates

WordPress MU-Plugin to enable maintenance and security updates when the site uses version control and `DISALLOW_FILE_MODS`.

When `DISALLOW_FILE_MODS` is not set or false, WordPress will behave as if there was no VCS: plugins and themes can be installed or updated from the dashboard.

In this scenario, `composer.lock` will get out of sync. It can be used to hand-off a project to a client.

## Installation

This package can be installed in the `mu-plugins` directory with `composer/installers`.

As WordPress only load php files inside `mu-plugins` directory, it needs to be included required by a file or autoloaded using `roots/bedrock-autoloader` or similar solutions.

Example of a `composer.json` to manage a WordPress site with Composer:

```json

{

  "require": {

    "php": ">=7.0",

    "benoitchantre/wp-composer-auto-updates": "^1.0",

    "composer/installers": "^1.0", 

    "johnpbloch/wordpress": "^5.5", 

    "roots/bedrock-autoloader": "^1.0"

  },

  "extra": {

    "wordpress-install-dir": "public/wp",

    "installer-paths": {

      "public/wp-content/mu-plugins/{$name}": [

        "type:wordpress-muplugin"

      ],

      "public/wp-content/plugins/{$name}/": [

        "type:wordpress-plugin"

      ],

      "public/wp-content/themes/{$name}/": [

        "type:wordpress-theme"

      ]

    }

  }

}

```
