Hi

I have been working on a tool to easily bootstrap a new October CMS installation. It's called oc-bootstrapper.

The tool is installable via composer and provides a simple october command that lets you install and configure an October CMS installation by creating a config file and run october install.

The following steps will be taken care of:

1. The latest October CMS gets downloaded from github and gets installed
2. All composer dependencies are installed
3. A dev environment gets created for you where all your settings from the config file are set
4. Some sensible configuration defaults for your prod environment get set
5. Your database gets migrated
6. All demo data gets removed
7. Your selected theme gets downloaded and installed
8. All your plugins get downloaded and installed
9. A .gitignore file gets created
10. A push to deploy setup gets initialized for you (currently only GitLab is supported)

oc-bootstrapper also enables you to install private themes and plugins from your own git repository.

The tool is currently in development and only tested on Linux.

Feedback, bug reports and pull requests are welcome!

Wow,

good job.... will have a play with it.

thanks

I have just released version 0.2 of oc-bootstrapper, a simple command line utility to bootstrap your October CMS installations. New in this version is a bareRepo option that makes it very easy to deploy your site via git while only having your themes and plugins folder in the repo. Also I have optimized the private plugins installations from a git repo and the overall flexibility of the tool. Check it out if you haven't already! Feedback, PRs and bug reports are welcome!
