Installation method

[jmslbam]

Please re-consider loading it as a regular plugin or merge it with the WP Rocket plugin itself.

Not every server is fitted to use the WP-CLI package installer.

E.g. No composer on the server, or composer misconfigured, or server is managed by hosting that doesn't allow installing it.

In my case (and other WP-CLI users) installing a WP-CLI package results in Composer memory errors.

[xyz@foo public_html]$ wp package install wp-media/wp-rocket-cli

Error: Package installation failed.
Reverted composer.json.

So now I need to install it by:

1. Adding the plugin header back in manually https://github.com/wp-media/wp-rocket-cli/commit/4fef271d1d3abf661bc14b82836f30ac91e948a9 and re-upload it.
2. Or include the code in my project myself.

Did it broke the loading of the plugin to leave the plugin header in? When it was installed via the WP-CLI package manager?

Kinds regards,

Jaime

I was able to install with wp package install wp-media/wp-rocket-cli:@stable

Yeah, some probally will be able to install it. I could install it on my local developement setup.

But not on my webserver because of the architecture of user permission settings / memory assignment etc.

It's more that this method of installing doesn't have a 100% succes-rate which makes manually changing the code a overhead, which minimize the amount of people that will be using it. It's a treshold thrown-up which doensn't have to be there.

Making me go through these extra loops doesn't make it more friendly.

The host comes w/ WP-CLI pre-installed but doesn't allow WP-CLI packages to be installed via WP-CLI?

It's doesn't prevent the installation of packages via WP-CLI. It just doesn't work because composer (used by WP-CLI to install these packages) triggers a error (common error) whíle installing a WP-CLI package and we can't solve that. On Sep 17, 2021 20:16, Ethan Clevenger @.***> wrote: The host comes pre-installed w/ WP-CLI but doesn't allow WP-CLI packages to be installed via WP-CLI?
