A config-based composer package that provides a set of modules to extend Genesis child theme development.

This library contains all of the core logic for our config-driven WordPress themes, such as the Genesis Starter Theme.

It contains two key classes:

• Component to be extended to build other components, and:
• Theme which is responsible for instantiating components and injecting the correct configuration.

The main purpose of this library is to provide a shareable codebase for commercial Genesis child themes. This is achieved by using configuration-based architecture to separate the theme's reusable logic from it's configuration. Using this approach, we are able to use a single codebase which can be heavily customized by passing in different configs. This project is inspired by the Genesis Theme Toolkit by Gary Jones and D2 Core by Craig Simpson, but contains additional functionality specific to commercial themes, including support for older versions of PHP.

Include the package in your child theme's composer.json file (an example composer.json file can be found here).

composer require seothemes/core

Optionally install the TGMPA composer package:

composer require tgmpa/tgm-plugin-activation

Components should be loaded in your theme functions.php file, using the Theme::setup static method. Code should run on the after_setup_theme hook (or genesis_setup if you use Genesis Framework).

// Get config path.
$config = dirname( dirname( __DIR__ ) ) . '/config';

// Setup theme.
\SeoThemes\Core\Theme::setup( $config );

Components are automatically loaded if a config file matching the component name in kebab case is found. For example, to load the GoogleFonts component, create a file in the config directory called google-fonts.php.

Core follows the PHP Package Development Standard folder structure and uses PSR-4 Autoloading.
