Usage

Steps to install and test the WordPress PoC:

1. Install a fresh version of WordPress using Docker:

1.1 Start the MySQL database container:

docker run --name wp-db -e MYSQL_DATABASE=wp-db -e MYSQL_USER=wpuser -e MYSQL_PASSWORD=password -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=rootpass -d mysql:5.7

1.2 Start the WordPress container linked to the DB

docker run --name wp-site --link wp-db:mysql \
  -e WORDPRESS_DB_HOST=wp-db \
  -e WORDPRESS_DB_NAME=wp-db \
  -e WORDPRESS_DB_USER=wpuser \
  -e WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD=password \
  -p 8080:80 -d wordpress

2. In the WordPress admin dashboard (http://localhost:8080):

• Log in
• Create a new draft or private post with the title "secret title"

3. Install the required Node.js dependency:

npm install node-fetch

4. Save the PoC:

As test.js for example.

5. Run the PoC:

node test.js http://localhost:8080/ secret

After around 10 seconds, you should see: "Done! the title is: secret title"
