  • Lokl – WordPress local development environment for Mac, Win and Linux
    7 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 3 Apr 2021
    It might be worth mentioning that Lokl [0] seems to be from the same author [1] as the "wp2static" plugin [2], my and many others go to for static site generation of WordPress.

    I find Lokl and interesting take, although the usual self-serve script is kind of annoying for power users (what I mean is that this bash scripts tried to do everything for you and it's less transparent), I recommend the repo [4] as the source of the actual Dockerfiles, that you could just reference in something like a docker-compose setup.

    The Dockerfiles are kind of surprising since they read more like a an ansible-playbook than like a Dockerfile. This one image has it all - php, nginx, mariadb, phpmyadmin and who knows what else [4]. It's an interesting approach to Docker images, certainly against the recommendation but might have some good reasoning for something as special as WordPress.

  • I created Lokl - an optimized local WordPress environment perfect for static site generation
    2 projects | /r/Wordpress | 22 Jan 2021
    But, in the last builds, I added support to run Lokl noninteractively, by setting environment variables. Ugh, Readme on Lokl main GitHub repo now stale, but lokl-cli's source shows how to run it as such: https://github.com/leonstafford/lokl-cli/blob/master/cli.sh
