WordPress Installer Module

An installer for WordPress plugins and themes.

Module Responsibilities

• Store a list of valid WordPress, Newfold, and custom URL plugins and themes, hereinafter referred to as valid plugins and themes.
• Provide REST API endpoints to install and/or activate valid plugins and themes synchronously or asynchronously (using WP_Cron).
• Provide REST API endpoints to check the status of asynchronous requests and functionality to expedite them.
• Provide Service classes that contain all the functionality which can be used independently of the REST API.
• Provide flexibility to install and activate valid plugins and themes synchronously or asynchronously (using WP_Cron).

Critical Paths

• If a user requests a valid plugin or theme installation/activation, it should be completed successfully.
• If a user requests an invalid/non-approved plugin or theme installation/activation, it should fail.
• If a user requests to asynchronously install/activate an approved plugin or theme, then the API returns the correct status of the request in the queue.
• If a user requests to expedite an asynchronously queued valid plugin or theme installation/activation, then it must be completed successfully without affecting other requests.
