Composer Scaffold Theme

External composer command to scaffold a WordPress theme from a Be API boilerplate:

• Be API Frontend Framework (BFF)
• BeAPI Blocks Theme (BBT)

Increase your workflow when creating a new theme. By launching this composer command, you will easily and quickly choose the boilerplate, theme name, namespace and bootstrap your new theme.

What ?

A simple command to generate a theme skeleton with all the cool features made by the Be API teams.

Two boilerplates are available:

Key	Boilerplate	Use case
bff	Be API Frontend Framework	Classic PHP theme starter
bbt	Be API Blocks Theme	Block theme starter

If you do not pass the --boilerplate option, the command will ask you interactively which boilerplate to use.

How ?

1 - Add to Composer

• composer require beapi/composer-scaffold-theme

2 - Run command

composer scaffold-theme [--boilerplate|-b bff|bbt] [--boilerplate-version [BOILERPLATE-VERSION]] [--no-autoload] <folder>

Options:

• --boilerplate, -b — Boilerplate to use: bff or bbt (interactive choice if omitted)
• --boilerplate-version — Git ref to download (branch, tag or commit). Defaults to Latest
• --no-autoload — Skip adding the theme namespace to composer.json autoload
• <folder> — Your theme's folder name (required)

Examples:

# Interactive boilerplate choice
composer scaffold-theme my-theme

# BFF boilerplate
composer scaffold-theme --boilerplate=bff my-theme

# BBT boilerplate, specific version
composer scaffold-theme -b bbt --boilerplate-version=1.0.0 my-blocks-theme
