Experimental tool to create WordPress sites quickly with Valet

This is a similar concept to the VV site wizard.

With this tool I was able to:

• Create a new, empty WP site (with database setup) in 4.7 seconds.
• Create a new WP dev site with my starter repo (plugins and theme) in 28 seconds.

• Install Valet
• Install WP-CLI
• Download / Clone this repo into a directory like ~/.valetpress
• Customise / Extend the valetpress file as needed to suit your projects
• Include the valetpress script in your .bashrc or similar file.

Note: I'm including this in my .zshrc file as I'm using oh-my-zsh.

if [ -f ~/.valetpress/valetpress ]; then
    source ~/.valetpress/valetpress
else
    print "404: ~/.valetpress/valetpress not found."
fi

• Create a user myproject with a temp password of password
• Remove the wp-content directory
• Ask you to enter a URL for the git repo

vp create

• Will ask for the name of your project
• Clone down a starter repo, run npm install & run gulp.
• (At the moment this is very custom to my workflow It's best you customise this for your own use)

vp start

• Will list all projects in your ~/Sites directory and ask you to choose one
• Backup the database
• Update WP core and plugins with WP-CLI
• Navigate to the theme folder (if it matches the project name)
• Start gulp
• (It's best you customise this for your own use)

vp delete

• Will ask for the name of the project you would like to delete
• Ask you to confim you wish to delete the project
• Delete the database for that project
• Delete the directory for that project

vp help

• Will display a summary of available commands

• This is very much a proof of concept at the moment
• If there's interest I'll make this script into a tool that's easier to install
• Hit me up here on github, twitter or email if you're interested in helping out!
