## Highlights
* Based on [WooCommerce](https://woocommerce.com) installation and activation process.
* Automatically updates plugin and database schema versions.
* Handles database table creation and updates (Schema enforcement).
* Provides [WP-CLI](https://wp-cli.org) commands for manual updates, and database table creation / verification.
* Easily extendable

## Installation

We officially support installing via composer only

### Via composer
```bash
composer require oblak/wp-plugin-installer
```

## Basic Usage

``Base_Plugin_Installer`` is an **abstract** singleton class which can be extended to create a plugin installer class. The class is responsible for installing and activating the plugin, and updating the plugin and database schema versions.
You need to extend it and implement the ``set_defaults()`` method, which is responsible for setting the default values for the class.

If your plugin needs non-wp database tables, you need to implement the ``get_schema()`` method, and set the ``has_tables`` property to ``true``, so that the installer can create and update the tables.

Class depends on [Action Scheduler](https://actionscheduler.org) for running update callbacks in the background.
If your plugin uses Action Scheduler, or depends on an another plugin, which has Action Scheduler, you can skip the activation step.

### 1. Define your installer class

```php
<?php
namespace Vendor\My_Plugin;

use Oblak\WP\Base_Plugin_Installer;

class My_Plugin_Installer extends Base_Plugin_Installer {

/**
* Singleton instance
*
* Since we're inheriting from a singleton class, we need to define this property.
*
* @var My_Plugin_Installer
*/
protected static $instance;

/**
* Set the installer defaults.
*/
protected function set_defaults() {
$this->name = 'My Plugin'; // Plugin name.
$this->slug = 'my-plugin'; // Plugin slug.
$this->version = '1.0.0'; // Plugin version (current).
$this->db_version = '1.0.0'; // Database schema version (current).
$this->has_tables = true; // Does the plugin have database tables?
}

/**
* Get the database schema.
*
* @return string The database schema.
*/
protected function get_schema() {
global $wpdb;

$collate = '';

if ( $wpdb->has_cap( 'collation' ) ) {
$collate = $wpdb->get_charset_collate();
}

return
"
CREATE TABLE `{$this->get_table_name()}` (
ID bigint(20) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
name varchar(255) NOT NULL,
created_at datetime NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (ID)
) {$collate}
";
}

}
```

### 2. Action Scheduler activation
```php
require_once __DIR__ . 'vendor/woocommerce/action-scheduler/action-scheduler.php';
```

### 3. Include the autoload file
```php
require_once __DIR__ . 'vendor/autoload.php';
```

### 4. Instantiate the installer class
```php
<?php

use Vendor\My_Plugin\My_Plugin_Installer;

My_Plugin_Installer::get_instance()->init();
```

## Advanced Usage

Special thanks goes to good people at [Automattic](https://automattic.com) for creating [WooCommerce](https://woocommerce.com) on whose installer this one is based upon, and [Action Scheduler](https://actionscheduler.org), which enables us to run update callbacks in the background.
