This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.

Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:

wp plugin install https://github.com/ebinnion/uploads-from-production/archive/refs/heads/master.zip

No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.

Readme github.com/ebinnion/uploads-from-production ↗

This plugin is meant to provide utilities for fetching and proxying images from a production server when working locally.

Currently, proxying images is implemented and it works by activating the plugin and then setting the UPLOADS_FROM_PRODUCTION_PROXY_URL constant in wp-config.php. For example:

define( 'UPLOADS_FROM_PRODUCTION_PROXY_URL', 'https://eric.blog' );

When this constant is present, this plugin attempts to overwrite the image URLs from attachments.

Future Work

A WP-CLI command that will import image from the primary image from the production server and then process thumbnails locally.
