Compare to VVV #38

Open ottok opened 7 years ago

ottok commented 7 years ago

Compare our Seravo Vagrant box to the develop branch of the official WordPress Vagrant box: https://github.com/Varying-Vagrant-Vagrants/VVV

If there are any developer tools, speed optimizations etc cool things, consider copying them over to our image. Note however to keep the PHP/Nginx part in parity with our production environment, there should be no surprises when developers push their sites to production.

Other commonly used Vagrant boxes are Flywheel Local and Scotchbox https://scotch.io/bar-talk/announcing-scotch-box-30-and-scotch-box-pro

And a Docker based one: https://github.com/10up/wp-local-docker-v2

And now also from WP Engine: https://wpengine.com/devkit/

VVV seems somewhat similar to ours at least when compared to Flywheel and WP Engine. Have not tested the dev environment from 10up. Some differences based on brief testing:

This file is a YAML formatted file. YAML indenting is done in spaces not

tabs, and whitespace is significant. If you don't stick to this, it will

fail on provision

#

IMPORTANT, if you change this file, you have to reprovision, no exceptions

Do this by running either this command:

vagrant reload --provision

#

Or, if your machine is already turned on:

vagrant provision

#

These are your websites, and their names map on to the folders they're

located in. See the docs for how to define these, and what all the keys

and options are

sites:

latest version of WordPress, can be used for client work and testing

wordpress-one: skip_provisioning: false description: "A standard WP install, useful for building plugins, testing things, etc" repo: https://github.com/Varying-Vagrant-Vagrants/custom-site-template.git hosts:

Utilities are system level items rather than sites, that install tools or packages

the core utilities install tools such as phpmyadmin

utilities: core: # The core VVV utility

vm_config controls how Vagrant provisions the virtual machine, and can be used to

increase the memory given to VVV and the number of CPU cores.

It can also be used to override the default provider being used within Vagrant.

vm_config:

For WP core development we recommend at least 2GB ( 2048 ),

If you have 4GB of RAM, lower this to 768MB or you may encounter issues

memory: 2048

CPU cores:

cores: 2

this tells VVV to use the prebuilt box copied from the USB drive at contributor days

once set to false, do not change back to true, and reprovision

wordcamp_contributor_day_box: false

Due to a limitation within Vagrant, the specified provider is only respected on a clean vagrant up

as Vagrant currently restricts you to one provider per machine

https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/providers/basic_usage.html#vagrant-up

provider: vmware_workstation

General VVV options

general:

Backup the databases to the database/backups subfolder on halt/suspend/destroy, set to false to disable

db_backup: true

Import the databases if they're missing from backups

db_restore: true

Maybe we should direct some effort to support multisite configuration into config.yml with the aid of https://github.com/Seravo/wordpress/issues/81? I don't think that we can directly compare VVV with our Vagrant environment, because ours is only intended for serving a single site, whereas VVV seems to have support for subdomain installations for multiple sites (wordpress-one, wordpress-two etc).

Does @ottok have anything to comment about the results above, or can this issue be closed? I also have created a shared Google docs document comparing also to other local environments, but not linking it here due to this being a public repo.

Other alternatives to compare to:

Docksal Command line based, wp-cli support docksal.io

Vagrant Command line based. Has a WP focused conf. vagrantup.com

Local by Flywheel GUI, SSL localwp.com

DesktopServer GUI, SSL serverpress.com

These are based on directly on docker-compose, but on a custom cli tool that creates the different files and environments, including docker-compose files: https://10up.github.io/wp-local-docker-docs/, https://lando.dev/
