PHP, Composer & WP

Composer provides an installer script written in PHP. We’ll download it, verify that it’s not corrupted, and then use it to install Composer.

Make sure you’re in your home directory, then retrieve the installer using curl:

# COMPOSER
sudo php /tmp/composer-setup.php --install-dir=/usr/local/bin --filename=composer
echo ''
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin/:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc

# WP-CLI 
# https://wp-cli.org/#installing
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wp-cli/builds/gh-pages/phar/wp-cli.phar

# Completion
mkdir .bash_completion
cd .bash_completion
curl -o wp.bash https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wp-cli/wp-cli/v2.10.0/utils/wp-completion.bash

cat <<EOF >> ~/.bashrc
# BASH COMPLETION
source "\$HOME/.bash_completion/wp.bash"

EOF

# fix keys permissions

Noble need assistance 🙋🏻‍♂️

Need assistance with noble configuration for my setup

I’m running custom Raspberry Pi OS Lite (64-bit) with:

Homebridge

installed via Install-Homebridge-on-Raspbian, no-root

sudo hb-shell log output:

# Note: This is a restricted shell, sudo cannot be used here.
# …
# Node.js Version: v20.9.0
# Node.js Path: /opt/homebridge/bin/node
# Plugin Path: /var/lib/homebridge/node_modules
# …
# homebridge@home:/var/lib/homebridge $

NVM

Used for personal projects management.
It’s not related to Homebridge, sharing it as it's node is in the pi user's path.

# pi@home ~
$ which node
# /home/pi/.nvm/versions/node/v20.9.0/bin/node

Qestions

Noble installation

https://github.com/noble/noble#ubuntudebianraspbian

sudo apt-get install bluetooth bluez libbluetooth-dev libudev-dev

1.1 Node in the path

Noble installation requires the node binary to be in the path, I assume that the above config can lead to issues and a mess. Any suggestions on how to configure it properly?

1.2 Running without a sudo

https://github.com/noble/noble#running-without-rootsudo

The original noble docs suggest to run the following command:

sudo setcap cap_net_raw+eip $(eval readlink -f `which node`)

It should be executed in the homebridge shell, right?
