This is a shell script, which you can run on the command line and which uses this boilerplate code to automatically set up a new plugin. It provides you with all that you will need to start working on a WordPress plugin based around code using PHP namespaces.

Run this shell script from the command line: ./build-wordpress-plugin.sh. The script will prompt you for the information it needs.

If you're going to use this bash script on Mac OS, you'll first need to replace the default version of sed with the GNU version, so that all of the necessary regular expression functionality works. You can use Homebrew to do this.

brew install gnu-sed --with-default-names

(This applies for Mac OS.) Place a copy of the .sh file in /usr/local/bin and make it executable.

cp build-wordpress-plugin.sh /usr/local/bin/build-wordpress-plugin
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/build-wordpress-plugin

Then use build-wordpress-plugin from the plugin directory of your project.
