Usage of REPLACE_ environmental variables.

[ardiewen]

Hi there, first of all thanks for setting up this repo. It's helped tremendously for setting up my development environments.

I'm adapting this for my own use case where for each project, I spin up 3 wordpress instances (e.g. prod, staging, dev) while maintaining a single shared database container.

So far so good, but I cannot seem to find any usage / reference to the REPLACE_DB_SERVICE_NAME and REPLACE_SITE_SERVICE_NAME environmental variables found at the bottom of the .env.sample file:

# docker-compose service name
#
# This variables below are used for the automation process
# and must be the same name used in docker-composer.yml
REPLACE_DB_SERVICE_NAME=new-site-db
REPLACE_SITE_SERVICE_NAME=new-site-wordpress

I've looked in both this repo and the webproxy parent repo and can't seem to find any references to it.

Can you confirm whether or not this is still required as part of the usage?

Hello @ardiewen

Nicely well noted! Yes this is a personal requirement for a larger script I have and still haven't finished yet... but I am using in production for the last 5 years now. So this is a requirement.

I am planning to open source it soon.

The script does some of the following:

• fire new site
• clone site
• backup
• restore
• restore to new url
• set domain dns
• install wp plugins
• .... etc
