Sergey Biryukov 37368555a5 Database: Ignore display width for integer data types in dbDelta() on MySQL 8.0.17 or later.
MySQL 8.0.17 deprecated the display width attribute for integer data types:
> As of MySQL 8.0.17, the `ZEROFILL` attribute is deprecated for numeric data types, as is the display width attribute for integer data types. You should expect support for `ZEROFILL` and display widths for integer data types to be removed in a future version of MySQL. Consider using an alternative means of producing the effect of these attributes. For example, applications can use the `LPAD()` function to zero-pad numbers up to the desired width, or they can store the formatted numbers in `CHAR` columns.

In practice, this means that display width is removed for integer types when creating a table:
* `BIGINT(20)` → `BIGINT`
* `INT(11)` → `INT`
* `MEDIUMINT(9)` → `MEDIUMINT`
* `SMALLINT(6)` → `SMALLINT`
* `TINYINT(4)` → `TINYINT`

Note: This only applies specifically to MySQL 8.0.17 or later. In MariaDB, display width for integer types is still available and expected.

This commit ensures that `dbDelta()`, which relies on the `DESCRIBE` SQL command to get the existing table structure and field types, when running on MySQL 8.0.17 or later, does not unnecessarily attempt to convert `BIGINT` fields back to `BIGINT(20)`, `INT` back to `INT(11)`, etc. When comparing the field type in the query with the existing field type, if display width is the only difference, it can be safely ignored to match MySQL behavior.

The change is covered by existing `dbDelta()` unit tests:
* A test for not altering `wp_get_db_schema()` queries on an existing install using MySQL 8.0.17+ now passes.
* More than twenty tests which previously failed on PHP 8.0.x + MariaDB due to incorrect expectations, caused by MariaDB version reporting not being consistent between PHP versions, now pass.

WordPress

Welcome to the WordPress development repository! Please check out the contributor handbook for information about how to open bug reports, contribute patches, test changes, write documentation, or get involved in any way you can.

Getting Started

WordPress is a PHP, MySQL, and JavaScript based project, and uses Node for its JavaScript dependencies. A local development environment is available to quickly get up and running.

You will need a basic understanding of how to use the command line on your computer. This will allow you to set up the local development environment, to start it and stop it when necessary, and to run the tests.

You will need Node and npm installed on your computer. Node is a JavaScript runtime used for developer tooling, and npm is the package manager included with Node. If you have a package manager installed for your operating system, setup can be as straightforward as:

  • macOS: brew install node
  • Windows: choco install nodejs
  • Ubuntu: apt install nodejs npm

If you are not using a package manager, see the Node.js download page for installers and binaries.

You will also need Docker installed and running on your computer. Docker is the virtualization software that powers the local development environment. Docker can be installed just like any other regular application.

Development Environment Commands

Ensure Docker is running before using these commands.

To start the development environment for the first time

Clone the current repository using git clone https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop.git. Then in your terminal move to the repository folder cd wordpress-develop and run the following commands:

npm install
npm run build:dev
npm run env:start
npm run env:install

Your WordPress site will accessible at http://localhost:8889. You can see or change configurations in the .env file located at the root of the project directory.

To watch for changes

If you're making changes to WordPress core files, you should start the file watcher in order to build or copy the files as necessary:

npm run dev

To stop the watcher, press ctrl+c.

To run a WP-CLI command

npm run env:cli -- <command>

WP-CLI has many useful commands you can use to work on your WordPress site. Where the documentation mentions running wp, run npm run env:cli -- instead. For example:

npm run env:cli -- help

To run the tests

These commands run the PHP and end-to-end test suites, respectively:

npm run test:php
npm run test:e2e

To restart the development environment

You may want to restart the environment if you've made changes to the configuration in the docker-compose.yml or .env files. Restart the environment with:

npm run env:restart

To stop the development environment

You can stop the environment when you're not using it to preserve your computer's power and resources:

npm run env:stop

To start the development environment again

Starting the environment again is a single command:

npm run env:start

Credentials

These are the default environment credentials:

  • Database Name: wordpress_develop
  • Username: root
  • Password: password

To login to the site, navigate to http://localhost:8889/wp-admin.

  • Username: admin
  • Password: password

To generate a new password (recommended):

  1. Go to the Dashboard
  2. Click the Users menu on the left
  3. Click the Edit link below the admin user
  4. Scroll down and click 'Generate password'. Either use this password (recommended) or change it, then click 'Update User'. If you use the generated password be sure to save it somewhere (password manager, etc).
