What?

  • @wordpress/env currently does not support WordPress versions older than 5.4.
  • While that is not necessarily important for WordPress core or Gutenberg, other plugins that make use of the package may support older versions and should be able to test them as well using this package.

Why?

  • @wordpress/env currently assumes certain conventions in wp-config.php that were not the case prior to WordPress 5.4.
  • These conventions change extremely rarely, but there were two points in recent (recent as in "10 year") history where relevant changes were made, leading to the way the file is currently formatted.
  • Concretely, two relevant changes are important for what @wordpress/env does:
    • Prior to WordPress 5.1, wp-config.php was not using spacing correctly: Compare the 5.1 code with the 5.0 code for reference.
    • Prior to WordPress 5.4, wp-config.php was using the older dirname( __FILE__ ) instead of __DIR__: Compare the 5.4 code with the 5.3 code for reference.

How?

  • This PR adds conditionals to set the relevant wp-config.php anchor references depending on which WordPress version is used.
  • If no concrete WordPress version can be detected, it keeps using the current way (which likely is the right one, given it's been that way for almost 4 years at this point.

As mentioned in one of the comments, could we try using --anchor=EOF instead? Since wp config set does both updates and additions, I think that would work out pretty well and avoid the version checking altogether.

@ObliviousHarmony Based on the reason why the --anchor was introduced, which is no longer applicable, wouldn't it be better to remove the --anchor parameter completely if anything (effectively revert e6d4483)?

The anchor defaults to "/* That's all, stop editing!". which could also be translated, causing the same issue all over again.

--anchor=EOF does not suffer from the same issue, but needs testing still because the constants are added later.

@swissspidy I thought you said in #55864 (comment) that these were no longer being translated. Or was that just very recent? Maybe I misunderstood that comment.

Just very recent. But WP 5.1 and WP 5.4 still had translated config files in many locales.

I just wanted to let you know that #40745 has been submitted reporting that the anchor configuration doesn't work with older PHP versions.

I don't know in which WP version the issue reported in #40745 occurs, but if this PR covers all WP versions, that issue may be closed.

@swissspidy @ObliviousHarmony It's been a while, but I just updated this PR based on previous feedback and left another reply to the other concern.

I still think this would be valuable to land as the underlying problem still persists. Would be great to get another review!

Do we really want to support such ancient WordPress versions?

There are no issues filed for this either, so wondering if it's really worth it.

Unfortunately I don't have Docker and therefore can't test it, so I'll leave the actual approval to others.

I confirmed that this PR works on a Windows host OS.

  • Checkout this branch.
  • Create .wp-env.override.json file.
  • Write one of the following definitions in the .wp-env.override.json file:
    {
    	"core": "WordPress/WordPress#5.3.16",
    	"phpVersion": "7.2"
    }
    {
    	"core": "WordPress/WordPress#5.0.20",
    	"phpVersion": "7.2"
    }
    Note: I explicitly specified an older PHP version to prevent the following error:
    Array and string offset access syntax with curly braces is no longer supported in /var/www/html/wp-includes/script-loader.php on line 707
    Fatal error: Array and string offset access syntax with curly braces is no longer supported in /var/www/html/wp-includes/script- loader.php on line 707
    
  • Run npm run start
  • The WordPress local environment will start and you can access it via localhost:8888 or localhost:8889.

I too am a bit skeptical about the need to support such old WordPress versions. I'd be interested to hear other people's opinions on this too.

@swissspidy @t-hamano Thanks for the review and testing!

I get the general concern about supporting old WordPress versions, but I find it a bit of a moot point, for a few reasons:

  • This is about general development tooling, as @wordpress/env is about having an easy-to-use development environment. There are many simple plugins out there that work on latest WordPress just as well as they work on WordPress 3.5. Why should plugins that support old versions not be able to use this development environment? Should they be forced to use other (potentially commercial) products just because they support old WordPress versions?
  • There is no policy on what WordPress versions @wordpress/env should or shouldn't support. The only reason it doesn't support older versions than 5.4 is what's being fixed here, i.e. likely an oversight / something that simply wasn't considered. Also WordPress 5.4 is already pretty old, why would we support that but not 5.3?

I think the cost of supporting old versions is minimal (basically this PR), and with the foundation that @wordpress/env provides, which is useful for pretty much every plugin we shouldn't artificially restrict who can use it.

(FWIW I personally have one of those simple plugins where I still support back to 5.0 because there's no need to require anything higher. That's how I ran into this bug.)
