Features

Requirements

Getting Started

  1. Clone this repo to your local machine and change directories.

    git clone git@github.com:ministryofjustice/intranet.git .
    cd intranet/
  2. Build the project locally. This will install composer dependencies on your local filesystem.

    make build

    If you experience any errors at this point, it may be due to being unable to access the private composer repository. More details here.

  3. Start the dory proxy, if it's not already running.

    dory up

    If you get an error message when trying to start dory, make sure you have docker running.

  4. Build and run the docker image.

    make run
  5. Launch the website in your default browser.

    make launch
  6. If this is a new install you may get a development replica by executing the WASM utility.

    wasm migrate intranet2:dev .

    The WordPress admin area will be accessible at /wp-admin.

Composer + WordPress plugins

The installation of WordPress core and plugins is managed by composer.

See composer.json for the required packages.

Plugins in the WordPress plugin repository are available from WordPress Packagist (wpackagist).

Premium and custom plugins used by MOJ are available in the private composer repository composer.wp.dsd.io.

WordPress Packagist plugins

Wpackagist plugins are named by their slug on the WordPress plugin repository, prefixed with the vendor wpackagist-plugin.

Some examples:

Plugin name WordPress plugin URL URL slug package name
Akismet https://wordpress.org/plugins/akismet/ akismet wpackagist-plugin/akismet
Hello Dolly https://wordpress.org/plugins/hello-dolly/ hello-dolly wpackagist-plugin/hello-dolly
Yoast SEO https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/ wordpress-seo wpackagist-plugin/wordpress-seo

Example: Installing Akismet plugin

Run the following command:

composer require "wpackagist-plugin/akismet" "*"

This will install the latest version of Akismet using the corresponding wpackagist package.

Private composer repository

The private composer repository composer.wp.dsd.io contains premium and custom WordPress plugins.

Access to this repository is restricted. Refer to internal documentation for further details.

Building theme assets

Theme assets can be built as part of the docker image. Add required commands to bin/build.sh.

Configure the default theme

Set your theme as the default by adding the following line to config/application.php:

WP_DEFAULT_THEME = 'clarity';

WP-CLI

The WordPress CLI is a useful tool for running commands against your WordPress installation.

To use WP-CLI, your docker container must already be running. (This will probably be running in a separate terminal session/tab.)

  1. Run:

    make bash

    A bash session will be opened in the running container.

  2. The WP-CLI will be available as wp.

    For example, to list all users in the install:

    wp user list

Email delivery

When running locally for development, emails sent by WordPress are not delivered. Instead they are captured by mailcatcher.

To see emails, go to http://mail.`SERVER_NAME(i.e. the hostname set in your.env` file) in your browser. e.g. http://mail.example.docker

This will load a webmail-like interface and display all emails that WordPress has sent.

Make commands

There are several make commands configured in the Makefile. These are mostly just convenience wrappers for longer or more complicated commands.

Command Description
make build Run the build script to install application dependencies and build theme assets. This will typically involve installing composer packages and compiling SASS stylesheets.
make clean Alias of git clean -xdf. Restore the git working copy to its original state. This will remove uncommitted changes and ignored files.
make docker-clean Launches an assistive script to remove docker image caches and persistent data during development. Options: v = Clean volumes. vr = Clean volumes, rebuild and run. n = Nuke all local Docker images
make run Alias of docker-compose up. Launch the application locally using docker-compose.
make down Alias of docker-compose down.
make bash Open a bash shell on the WordPress docker container. The WP-CLI is accessible as wp. The application must already be running (e.g. via make run) before this can be used.
make launch Checks if the intranet docker instance is running; if not, launch docker in the background and open the site in the systems default browser
make test Run tests on the application. Out of the box this will run PHP CodeSniffer (code linter).
make test-fixes Fix issues found during make test

IP whitelisting

The Intranet manages IP whitelisting in a different way to most other deployments. In March 2020 authentication via IdP was introduced to present access to the MoJ wider network and as a result, IP whitelists moved to AWS ALB listener rules.

To help manage ALB rule creation 2 scripts are available in the JotW LastPass account.

Bedrock

This project is based on Bedrock. Therefore, much of the Bedrock documentation will be applicable. Bedrock documentation is available at https://roots.io/bedrock/docs/.
