Trivial script to "probably" detect compatibility of plugins and themes

Description (Last modified by jjb)

One thing that would be really nice, when shopping around for plugins and themes to use with Lyceum, is a script that could help me guess if the theme/plugin is compatible with Lyceum in addition to WordPress.

There is probably a list of Lyceum-unsafe WordPress functions to reference, and just a trivial bundled script that greps for them would be a huge help. Super rad would be a guide to what to do when you see each kind of Lyceum-unsafe function call.

This tool should check for:

  • table creation
  • anything using $wpdb

Asheesh-

How do you envision this script working? At the command line? That sounds good to me-- a nice listing.. "this plugin contains blog-specific sql"... "this plugin needs to instantiate a table"...

Command line sounds just fine, yeah. The way you envision it is even bigger than I was thinking; I was thinking a simple "This is clearly fine" vs. "This may not be but this script is vague because it's so super trivial. Go to this wiki page to learn more.".
